The week leading up to and the days following our wedding was just as fun and memorable as the actual event. Since we had about 25 guests that had flown in from all over the world, it was only appropriate to expand the celebrations and have a little more adventure!
If you’ve been with this blog for awhile you know Ryan, owner and operator of SUP Barbados. He was the very first Bajan I ever met and turned into one of my dearest island family members. Aside from Barbados, we had a mini adventure to Trinidad and Tobago and a random airport hug in Frankfurt, Germany! On this day, he took out a small group of us for a sunset paddle. Recognize the other girls? Bree, from travels in Chiang Mai, New York, and Barbados back in 2014. Then there’s Denise and Ioni, my amazing friends from The Netherlands! We’ve studied together in Buenos Aires, played with in Córdoba and definitely made a mark in Amsterdam. I actually met Denise back in Spain before herhappytrails even existed!
Now, we all gather under one sun and celebrate!
Ryan took the photo of me years ago and then one of Matt on this day… unplanned!
Such a fun day! Thank you Ryan for always providing a day of laughter, sunshine and paddle filled memories.
Post wedding day was spent on the beach with boats, rafts, drinks, snacks and music. In my opinion, perfection! Cameras weren’t brought out that day (at least ours weren’t) so you’ll just have to trust it was a bright day full of more smiles, sunkissed skin and friends as far as the beach could hold. Here is the only photo I was given from the day, thanks Dani! 
The last day of the wedding celebrations was spent on my favorite catamaran Cool Runnings!

Again with the lack of photos, just know it was a fantastic day! We did get a few snap shots of me honoring my dress though! 
As I wrap up the memories of this beautiful moment in time, I want to rewind and post the video of how it all started. I’ll end here with the recording of the engagement!
Her Happy Trails 
Love it! Such a great way to bid adieu to a dress. I did the same, but yours looks a lot warmer than the glacial pool that froze my entire body in Slovenia 🙂
