Featured Wedding: Julia and Nick

Not all Austin weddings happen in Austin. Earlier this yeartwo NEQSP members were involved in Julie and Nick's Destination wedding at a private resort near Playa Del Carmen in Mexico.
Skip Neal, the Honeymoon Guru organized the trip for the couple, as well as all the guests, and Eric Hegwer an Austin Wedding Photographer was selected to fly down and photograph the event.
The texas couple planned a ton of unique details, a custom ring bowl from Plamoma's Nest, Unique out of town canvas bags filled with favors for the guests traveling in from all over the country, custom tiles as placecards, and they even stitched a texas flag to a canvas bag filed with some Texas dirt, that they put at their feet during the ceremony so they would be standing on Texas soil when they got married.

All in all there were 15 guests in attendance, a nice mix of friends and family all together for a fantastic wedding weekend in Mexico. Congratulations to you both!
