While I stayed in Nicaragua due to an invitation to see

the outstanding wedding ceremony of Adriana & Nathan

there were serious tensions going on ("Invasion") at the close-by border of Nicaragua/Costa Rica.

Nicaragua - most amazing wedding -

Thanks to Adriana & Nathan and to your families, especially thx to Edith for inviting me to this most amazing wedding! It was such a blast! For me a five day party in an exotic country. Even though I was probably by far the most stranger for everyone attending the wedding, I loved EVERY bit of it.

My congrats not only to the bride and groom but also to Alitza Vega who did an outstanding job on contracting and organizing the wedding (as I understood - every bit had to be planned by Alitza by herself once the "professional" wedding planer simply disappeared without telling).

Here you'll find pictures, short video cuts and links to give you some impressions on this wedding deluxe!
