Welcome to our Wedding Celebration!

We are so excited to celebrate our wedding weekend with you! If you are invited, it means you are part of our story, and coming out to support us and our marriage means the world to us! We hope you embrace the Pura Vida lifestyle that this beautiful country is known for. While you’re here, you will hear “Pura Vida” a lot. It’s a greeting, a farewell, a way to express everything is okay, or acknowledge something is good. It’s beyond a phrase - it’s a philosophy and a way of life in Costa Rica! Pura Vida is about appreciating the simple things, finding happiness in everyday moments, and having a relaxed, happy, and optimistic outlook on life. Pura Vida represents values we both believe in, and is exactly what we want for our marriage foundation. While our official wedding events are scheduled from Thursday, January 8th to Saturday, January 10th, we encourage our guests to arrive early and enjoy the breathtaking surroundings for as long as possible. As a couple with a foundation in adventure and travel, nothing would make us happier than seeing our guests explore and take time for themselves! We cannot wait to celebrate with you - if you’re here, you’re family! Pura Vida, Javen & Kevin P.S. - Don't feed the monkeys!
