honeymoon elopement in
costA Rica
Ari + Matt
What do you do when the ‘Rona puts the kibosh on your wedding in downtown Los Angeles??? You turn your honeymoon into an elopement moon and elope to Tamarindo Costa Rica to exchange your vows with the dreamiest beach views! Ari and Matt met a little over two years ago via the online dating app Hinge, and when they realized they were going to have to postpone their wedding, Ari grabbed her wedding dress, Matt packed his beautiful brown tweed suit, and they hopped on a plane for their honeymoon elopement in Costa Rica aka Pura Vidadise.
The two of them couldn’t be more natural and cute together. Both Matt and Ari teared up while exchanging their vows under a beautiful tree with the dreamiest beach front ocean view, and then were all smiles and lauging with each other afteawards. Congrats you two!
And thank you Brittany at Two Adventurous Souls for connecting Ari with me! If y’all are traveling in Maine, be sure to look Brittany up!




Pura Vida,
Kristen

Ashley and I first met back when we both lived in NYC.
