San Juan, Puerto Rico Wedding | Taryn + Javi

Hotel El Convento Wedding

We met Taryn & Javi on a rainy day in New York city for their engagement session about 11 months before their wedding day. Although it was supposed to rain on their wedding day as well, it was a perfectly sunny day instead. Taryn & Javi had their ceremony at the San Juan Cathedral and their reception at our favorite San Juan hotel, the El Convento. Their wedding incorporated Catholic, family, and Puerto Rican traditions. At the reception, Taryn's dad made sure to grab a have a photo with Taryn & a basketball, a family tradition since she was in high school. Taryn had also surprised Javi at the reception with a traditional Pleneros band that kept the party raging in between a band break. The energy was infectious as everyone seemed to know every word to every song! The party continued on after the El Convento and ending up lasting until the wee hours of the morning by the pool of La Concha.This was our third trip to Puerto Rico for a wedding and it did not disappoint as we were finally able to see a different side of the island we had never seen before, the side with beautiful beaches! Two days after the wedding we went with Taryn & Javi and some of their wedding guests on a catamaran to clear blue waters for snorkeling. Unfortunately, many of us walked away with sunburns. :)destination wedding photography in San Juan Puerto Ricobride cheers with champagne"Dad, I love you" tattoobridesmaids in pink dressesbride putting on dresshotel el convento bridal portraitgroom and groomsmen with beer and go probride and bridesmaids walking to ceremonybride and father before wedding ceremonygroom seeing bride for first timebride and father walk down aislefather stepping on bride's veilsan juan cathedral wedding ceremonysan juan cathedral wedding ceremonysan juan cathedral wedding ceremonysan juan cathedral wedding ceremonybride and groom exiting church with flower petalspeople watching bride and groom exiting churchsan juan puerto rico bride and groom portraitsbride and groom with puerto rico catspuerto rico beach side bride and groom portraitsbride and groom enter receptionwedding guests celebrating bride and groomfirst dance at hotel el conventoemotional father daughter danceemotional mother son dancehotel el convento wedding receptionwedding reception dancinghotel el convento weddingdestination wedding photographypuerto rico wedding receptionsan juan wedding photoshotel el convento wedding reception
