Kay&Thomas

Villa Caletas, Costa Rica

We have known Kay for many years and have been waiting for the day when she would find her guy. And now she has with Thomas, a fellow Stanford graduate. They chose Costa Rica for their February wedding so they could make a vacation out of it, along with getting to explore the beautiful country during their honeymoon. Kay and Thomas held their ceremony and reception at the breathtaking Zephyr Palace at Villa Caletas, just outside the town of Jaco. It was an intimate celebration with close family and friends that culminated with a Chinese lantern release and a late-night jump in the pool overlooking the Pacific ocean. Their wedding was the perfect start to our wedding season this year.

We were fortunate to have our associate photographer Dave Getzschman with us shooting video and also still images on his film cameras.
