Beach Elopement in Tamarindo Costa Rica || Terri + Troy:

Life’s a funny thing. We laugh, we cry, we celebrate, we sometimes fight, but we sure know to love. And the beautiful thing about love, is that even through all of life’s ups and downs, love will always find a way. When Terri and Troy first met many years ago, they were in other relationships. But, as the years passed by, they both found themselves back on the market at the same time. And that’s when fate, with the little help of one of Terri’s girlfriends, had Terri and Troy reconnect at a mutual friend’s party.Bride and groom kissing in a hidden beach path at Cala Luna Boutique Hotel in Playa Langosta Costa Rica.

Terri and Troy hit it off at that party, and Terri agreed to go on a date with Troy. And on that first date, Terri walked into the bar looking stunning as ever, wearing her jeans and cowboy boots. Or, as in Troy’s words, “When Terri walked in, all the heads were snapping. After that first date, I knew I was going to marry her.” Love was definitely finding its way.Bride and groom on the beach in Playa Langosta Costa Rica. Photographed by Kristen M.

Four years of dating later, Terri and Troy found themselves promising forever to each other in beautiful Costa Rica. With Troy’s parents by his side, Terri’s two kids walked their mom down the the beautiful beach aisle sprinkled with red rose petals in Playa Langosta. Their ceremony was sweet and full of so much love for one another and their families. And the chemistry between these two? Magnetic and so playful. After the ceremony, the group headed to Pangas Beach Club to watch one Tamarindo’s picturesque sunsets and celebrate over dinner and one delicious cake.
