Destination weddings are wonderfully romantic, don't you think? Who wouldn't love to run away to an exotic location with their dearest loved ones and celebrate their love in paradise?

Hilary and Elliott did just that with their simple-but-elegant wedding at the Langosta Beach Club in Costa Rica.
From photographer Katherine Stintett of Katherine Stintett Photography:

Hilary and Elliott wanted lots of candle light, fresh natural backdrops, poolside and ocean views and, most importantly, a really comfortable and relaxed atmosphere for their guests. The colour scheme consisted of ivory and soft peachy/coral tones along with navy, gold and glitter accents. Together we created a really romantic and fun experience for the guests and focused on utilizing as much space as possible at the Langosta Beach Club by using different interactive areas for guests to enjoy. Cabanas poolside for those who wanted to drink, chat and mingle; a dance floor area under palm trees and string lights; a vanity fair inspired photo booth with handmade (by the bride) vintage feather masks; and a bonfire, s'mores bar with lounge furniture down by the beach where guests lit sparklers and danced the night away! Hilary was very hands on with custom projects and beautifully crafted décor elements for both the ceremony and reception. This certainly added a very personal touch to the wedding. All in all, a beautiful day for a beautiful couple!
