From El Convento to El Morro A Beautiful Puerto Rico Elopement Story

Alex and Logan’s destination elopement in Puerto Rico was a day full of love, laughter, and perfect timing. As a local Puerto Rico wedding photographer, I was honored to capture their intimate celebration, which started at the historic Hotel El Convento and ended with a heartfelt ceremony at the iconic El Morro. If you’re planning a wedding or elopement in Puerto Rico, especially at El Convento or El Morro, this story is sure to inspire you!

The Perfect Start at Hotel El Convento

Alex and Logan began their day in the luxurious setting of Hotel El Convento, a stunning venue for couples looking for a romantic and historic spot to get ready for their wedding. Meeting Alex for the first time was exciting, and the anticipation in the air was contagious. El Convento, with its old-world charm and incredible views, is the ideal backdrop for any Puerto Rico destination wedding or elopement, offering both intimacy and grandeur.

A First Look in Old San Juan

Before the ceremony, Alex and Logan shared their first look—one of my favorite moments to photograph! We wandered the picturesque streets of Old San Juan, stopping at a local vendor for some refreshments and for some beautiful shots. Old San Juan is the perfect place for couples looking for a mix of colorful architecture and historical landmarks, making it a top choice for those considering an elopement in Puerto Rico.

Elopement Ceremony at El Morro 

The stars aligned for Alex and Logan’s wedding day because El Morro had been closed for a week and only reopened just in time for their ceremony. This UNESCO World Heritage site offers breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean, and it’s the ideal location for a couple who wants an iconic yet intimate setting for their wedding. If you’re planning a micro wedding or an elopement, El Morro’s timeless beauty adds a special touch to any ceremony.

An Intimate Dinner at El Convento

After the ceremony, Alex and Logan returned to El Convento for a private dinner with their close family. The intimate atmosphere of the hotel is perfect for couples who want a more personal experience on their wedding day. With its elegant spaces and personalized service, El Convento is a dream location for couples looking to host an elopement or micro wedding in Puerto Rico.

Capturing Alex and Logan’s elopement at Hotel El Convento and El Morro was a magical experience.
