Is it the year of the tropical wedding or what"! Once we saw these photos by Emily of Anna Delores Photography we knew we wanted to share Christyna + Juan?s nuptials on this last day before fall officially begins. Honing in on their Panama-meets-California tropical chic style during a two-year engagement, they adorned McCormick Home Ranch with sweet coral accents + garden blooms.

Juan says, Christyna and I met as undergraduates at Berkeley. I had a chance to lay eyes on her when she attended her first meeting with Berkeley’s Black Business Association. I always thought she was attractive and smart and had the opportunity to introduce myself to her (right as I’m writing this Christyna realized for the first time that I had been scoping her out before that meeting). It was a brief introduction (she likes to say I only said five words, “Hi my name is Juan,” to her for the entire semester) but it set the stage for what would be a beautiful journey together. After 12 years, 2 bachelors degrees, 5 moves, 3 years long distance, 2 MBAs, and a crazy little dog, I can’t imagine life any other way with anyone else.
