Andy + Ashley's Los Cabos Wedding Weekend - Welcome Party at El Ganzo Hotel |

 

It feels like yesterday when Andy proposed to me yet here we are inviting you into our magical Los Cabos wedding weekend. Andy and I are so excited to share these special moments with you over the next few days. When we envisioned our wedding we wanted to create an experience that would carry a lifetime of memories; a weekend for all of our favorite humans to relax + enjoy, and of course, to celebrate our love and commitment to each other. After we decided on a destination wedding  we set out to put together that experience in the most beautiful of settings and kicked off #aplusabigday with a Welcome Party at Hotel El Ganzo.

For us, it was a kick-off to forever and the night when many families came together for the first time ever or for the first time in over 20 years.  I remember standing hand in hand with Andy as his dad gave the most amazing welcome speech about how proud he is of his son and how excited him + his wife were that Andy finally found someone who would deal with his picky eating habits, push him out of his comfort zone, and be his forever partner ....  all while looking out and seeing every single amazing person that has ever touched our lives. It's an incredible feeling to feel so much love at one time.
