In the delightful month of November, together with their family and friends, we witnessed the love union of Shantal and Xavier. They said the forever ‘I DO’ at the beautiful Catholic Church El Pueblito and celebrate the best night of their lives at the marvelous wedding reception here at Villa la Joya. The lovely couple, Shantal and Xavier, have been planning the wedding for a long time, but after their first visit to Villa la Joya, they immediately fell in love with it and knew that this is the venue to celebrate their wedding. The biggest inspiration for them having a destination wedding was the chance to bring their families and friends from all over the world ... Nicaragua, Ecuador, Spain, and the USA.

One thing we all couldn’t take our eyes from was their romantic and pure wedding theme. It was all white with ivory tones. All the decorations and florals by Cherry Blossom went perfectly with the whole color palette. Both Shantal and Xavier cherished their passion for food by bringing one of the finest caterers, Chef Tomas at @gourmetsoberanis, and a food display with Authentic Mexican Food, with a tortilla station handmade right there at the moment. Thanks to Pescadores, the guest had an opportunity to taste and enjoy the local craft beer. They assigned the entertainment part to Plugin Audiovisual with DJ Chuy who had the newlywed couple and the guests dancing all night long under the stars. From the decor and the delicious cake by Pasteleria la Migaja to the sing-along moment with the Mariachis, Shantal and Xavier, together with their wedding planner, Paradise Weddings & Events, succeeded in planning a gorgeous wedding.
