Beach Cocktail
Our rehearsal dinner will be the official kick-off to our festivities! We will have Sangria, Mojitos, Beer and Wine in the open bar. We recommend trying the local beer, Medalla! Food options will include a Petite Salad Station, a Mini Mofongo Station (a classic Puerto Rican dish) and a Pizzeta station. We will have our photographer present to capture the special moments and a couple of speeches from our closest friends. There is no need for formal dress, but we do recommend cocktail attire- a nice sundress or jumpsuit for the ladies and ask that denim be avoided for the men. We can’t wait to see you there!

Post Wedding Beach Weekend! *2+ HOURS FROM SAN JUAN*
6:00 pm
Our family will be heading to the surfing capital of Puerto Rico, Rincon for the weekend and wanted to extend the invite to all guests. Guests will need to find their own transportation and accommodations in Rincon. We will host a pool party and BBQ at our Airbnb that we have rented near the beach. Throughout the weekend we will coordinate surfing lessons, dinners at the best restaurants on the island, and cave tubing. We invite all guests to head out to Rincon and join us for whichever events suit your interests. The more the merrier! If you RSVP yes to this, I will connect with you personally on our weekend itinerary.
