Costa Rica || La Fortuna || Springs Resort & Spa Wedding

When you think of a destination wedding, most would think of an ocean and sand. This couple however decided to do something a bit different and they got married in Costa Rica, La Fortuna @ the Springs Resort and Spa , near a live volcano & rain forests. It does rain quite often in the area, but we mostly managed to avoid it over the course of 3 days of photography. Costa Rica is one of the most beautiful countries and a paradise for destination wedding photographers and just anyone who loves nature and wildlife.

If you like nature, waterfalls, animals and birds, Costa Rica is probably one of the best places on earth to experience those up close. There’s no need to drive for hours with binoculars in search of something as it’s all right there in front of you! Sometimes you just need to slow down and look around. Chances are, you’ll see dozens of birds,monkeys, spiders,frogs and snakes. If you are staying in La Fortuna area near the volcano, you can indulge yourself in the mineral hot springs or do some surfing in a nearby province which is a very popular spot for surfers and has a lot of luxury resorts. Costa Rica offers a lot of fun activities such as zip lining, surfing,diving,skydiving for those who want a bit of adrenalin. Some resorts here have hot springs and baths with different temperatures and it’s quite a popular thing to do for many tourists. I’d definitely recommend The Springs Resort as it is truly beautiful and offers great service too.

Here are some of my favorite photos from those 3 days in Costa Rica. The ceremony was at the resort along with a number of photographs. A day after the wedding we went around the area taking photographs as we drove around. I can assure you you’ve never seen photographs like these!! 🙂
