Here is the story of Andy & Naureen who picked Belize for their destination wedding venue… and me to capture all the beautiful moments of their Adventurous Mayan Temple Belize Destination Wedding.
When Naureen inquired, her first message said, ” I want to have my wedding on mayan ruins. I also want you to be my photographer!! I’m having a hard time getting started. Do you work with a wedding planner down there? Is there someone you can refer to me? 🙂 Thanks so much!!” After my reply and recommendations, she booked her trip and had an Adventurous Mayan Temple Belize Destination Wedding at the Ancient Maya City of Xunantunich in San Jose Succotz, a Maya village in the Cayo District of Western Belize and hosted their reception at the amazing Ka’ana Boutique Resort.
The getting ready part happened at Ka’ana Resort. Naureen got ready with her best friends at one of the beautiful private villas Ka’ana has to offer.
We then moved to the astonishing ancient Mayan City of Xunantunich. Xunantunich is home to El Castillo, the second tallest structure in Belize.
But Andy & Naureen came with a surprise for their guests. They hired an authentic group of Mayan Shamans from la Riviera Maya in Mexico. They performed a sacred Mayan ceremony for them. It was an amazing and unforgettable experience.
After the ceremony and photos around the Mayan Temples, we moved back to Ka’ana Resort where the newly wedded couple hosted their reception and celebrated their love with family and friends.
Here are some of the wedding photos I captured for this amazing couple!
