If you’re dreaming of a classic Puerto Rican wedding with some personal touches, you’re gonna love this one. This beautiful celebration started at the bride’s family home and ended at the elegant reception hall of Fundación Luis Muñoz Marín—and it was filled with all the love, tradition, and sweet moments (including their pup!) you could hope for.
Getting Ready at Home: A Puerto Rican Tradition
There’s just something so special about getting ready at home and surrounded by family. The bride spent her morning at her childhood home, helping each other with details and soaking in every moment. Her dog was right there too, tail wagging like he knew something big was happening.
The energy was calm, sentimental, and full of those little in-between moments that make this job so beautiful.
A Classic Church Ceremony Full of Meaning
The couple chose a traditional church ceremony, complete with heartfelt vows and a few happy tears. Walking down the aisle, arm in arm with her dad, the bride looked radiant. The church setting brought a timeless, sacred vibe to the day—something many Puerto Rican couples still hold close.
Whether you’re religious or just love the elegance of a church wedding, it’s a beautiful way to begin your forever.
Reception at Fundación Luis Muñoz Marín: Nature Meets Romance
After the ceremony, guests made their way to Fundación Luis Muñoz Marín—a stunning venue tucked into nature, yet still close to San Juan. The gardens and open-air setup were perfect for a relaxed evening filled with food, music, and dancing.
The couple added personal touches everywhere—from a custom cake decor with their pup to a coffee cart to celebrate their love for coffee. It felt warm, welcoming, and very them.
Yes, the Dog Was Part of the Party
Let’s talk about the real star of the show—their dog! Not only was he there for the getting ready moments, but he was there for their couples session too! Dressed in a cute little bowtie, he got plenty of love from everyone.
So, if you’re wondering if your furry best friend can be part of your big day—the answer is 100% yes.
Why Fundación Luis Muñoz Marín is Perfect for a Traditional Puerto Rico Wedding
This venue hits the sweet spot between natural beauty and cultural charm. You get the feel of an outdoor garden wedding without leaving the metro area. It’s spacious, peaceful, and gives you the freedom to decorate it your way while still honoring local traditions.
If you’re planning a classic Puerto Rican wedding with a modern, laid-back vibe, this spot should definitely be on your radar.
