TGIF! As the temperatures drop we’re dreaming of warm beaches and sunshine, so what better than a tropical vow renewal to jump start the weekend? Kristin and Gerald planned their 10 year Renewal Ceremony and Celebration off the coast of the Dominican Republic, in a little slice of paradise called Punta Cana at the beautiful Jellyfish Beach Restaurant . A beautiful oceanside ceremony was setup with an ethereal white canopy, fresh flowers and gold chairs for their intimate Renewal Ceremony. After the couple renewed their vows, the celebration continued at their intimate reception adorned with romantic stringing lights and a long white table where they indulged in a delicious dinner with their closest family and friends. Said bride Kristin: “We went with a rustic chic style with beautiful greenery and flowers. Our colors were beautiful shades of blush, pink, coral, and white. Our groomsmen wore dark blue suites with cream ties and brown shoes. The ladies wore an ombre of pink, blush and coral. We love the beach so it was perfect that we could renew our vows sun kissed on the beautiful beach of Punta Cana.” Asia Pimentel Photography captured absolutely breathtaking images of their perfect day:
The Ceremony
“Our ceremony was full of love,” said Kristin. “Our 3 beautiful children were so happy to be apart of the ceremony. Our 2 girls participated as flower girls and our 1 year old was a Jr. groomsman. We each wrote our own heartfelt vows and my uncle (who is a bishop) officiated the ceremony.”
The Reception
“The reception was a blast,” said Kristin. “After our first dance, which we asked our kids to be a part of, we all were dazzled by a fire show on the beach followed by a Dominican carnival and dancing all night. Everyone stills talks about how much fun we had that night.”
