We are now three weeks post hurricane Irma and one week post Maria and pleased to report that most resorts along Grace Bay are open for business and taking booking for the upcoming season.
The Tuscany Resort and The Venetian Resort are officially re-opening tomorrow, October 1st, with a special 40% discount for stays during the month of October.
Be inspired by Laura and Evan's honeymoon shoot: sun, sea, love, fun, relax - a vacation of a lifetime.
Destination weddings are beautiful but often the traditional elements are sacrificed and left at home. Not this time. Lauren and Sal’s Wedding at Beach House Turks & Caicos brought a touch of Persia to the Islands, filling the day with joy, colors, smiles and ceremonial traditions that have been practiced for thousand of years.
One of my favorite is the Kalleh Ghand (sugar cones): during the ceremony happily married woman rub the cones together over the “ghand cloth†while held over the couple’s head to shower their life and marriage with sweetness.
Writing a wedding post after the passage of hurricane Irma feels strange: the devastation and sadness are hard to face, but the Turks and Caicos survived the monster. One day everything will be repaired and shining just like the sun. Thanks to all the beautiful people that are working hard to restore, help, clean and rebuild, hurricane Irma will be simply a good lesson and another story to tell.
Borrowing my friend's electricity (I have no power nor internet connection at my home and studio), I'm pleased to share Erin and Rob's wedding at the Alexandra Resort, on Grace Bay. They have been waring patiently for their wedding pictures and finally I can share a few of them with you. We all need a reason to smile and think about happy days, past and future.
It's a Turks and Caicos destination elopement that officially sealed Angelique and Dan's 20 years relationship. A sunny, hot, glorious August morning, the pristine Leeward beach, the cutout of their beautiful dogs and a big splash in the ocean - just like the dreamed about it.
A shout out to the people that added a special touch to the wedding: Chrishell, Nila Destinations amazing planner; the one and only Pastor Sherlock Padmore; Shenique, Sheque Perfection talented hairdresser and makeup artist, Flowers by EA for the gorgeous bouquet.
