Kevin and I just returned from Holly and Tman's wedding on the beautiful Island of Negril, Jamaica. This was our first trip to Jamaica...and wow, what a wonderful place!!! We stayed at the Gorgeous Tensing Pen Resort, a small intimate property located on the Caribbean Sea consisting of approximately 16 private cottages on the western side of the island. The private Jamaican cove was a beautiful setting for afternoon wedding in the Sea Song Hut and the weather was just perfect for the VanDeventer - Nguyen Nuptials. Holly looked beautiful in her strapless ivory gown with very simple elegant lace over the entire dress. Ati looked very handsome in his pressed white shirt with tan linen pants and brown leather sandals...truly a great looking, happy couple!!
Holly and Tman invited 40 of their closest friends and family to help them celebrate this wonderful occasion and we were honored to be included. My honey was the best man and did a great job at supported his best friend during his special weekend.
The friends arrived before the bride and grooms family; Wednesday night we had dinner and drinks at the resort and then moved the party down to the pool. This was a great time for everyone to enjoy spending time with Holly and Tman before the wedding activities began the following day. Thursday morning we started the day by having breakfast on the outdoor patio overlooking the Caribbean Sea - listening to the waves crashing against the rocks surrounding Tensing Pen was a beautiful setting to begin the day. The main activities consisted of jumping off cliffs located on the property approximately 30 feet above the ocean, sailing on the crystal blue waters, laying out on the beach, and enjoying time in the pool with friends after a long day. Pool closed at 7pm, but what time do you think we left? Can't remember, but it definitely wasn't 7pm. This resort was very secluded with limited access to telephone service and no TV in the rooms. Our group enjoyed the private feel, but didn't obey their rules. No Problem, mon!! :)
Well, we have returned to our home-sweet-home and are happy to be back. Vacations are always a great time to get away from our daily, busy lives...but it's always good to come home to our sweet baby girl and peaceful home. We took over 450 pictures, but I will be including 400 for your viewing pleasure....HA!! (photos coming soon)
