I simply adore tiny, family only Intimate Weddings. They are just so cozy, and beyond full of love and laughter! Not that the larger ones are not, but there is so much more time to be close and to really enjoy each and every person when it is just immediate family.

Mr. and Mrs. Sikes were married at Casa Ybel Resort on June 30th, 2010, in the most perfect little intimate ceremony, with just immediate family and their beautiful children. Everything about that day and this wedding was personal, sweet, and such a joy to be a part of!!

All in all, this was another stunning wedding for Casa Ybel, full of pure love and joy, and it was an honor to share in that! Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Sikes, and a lifetime of joy and love to you!!

Not only are they just super sweet, nice, down to earth, happy people; but to top it off they are both stunning, and madly in love with one another. Planning the wedding was a dream, and seemed effortless, with the couple focusing on the love they have for one another rather than getting overwhelmed by planning a destination wedding.

I truly love our Intimate Weddings here at Casa Ybel Resort. There is something so sweet about a destination wedding on the beach, with only immediately family and close friends. Everything is so laid back, and the bride and groom really get to enjoy spending time with each person at the wedding.

The joy, love, and closeness of family was particularly evident at the wedding of Elizabeth and Jay Follis on July 10, 2010. They were such a great couple to work with, and it was a great pleasure to help them have a perfect little destination wedding!
