Katie and Gio’s Tulum destination wedding proves that even a tropical beach locale can exude timeless elegance! The couple’s distinctly white and black color palette and contemporary style was chosen to complement the naturally airy light near their venue, the gorgeous Papaya Playa Project<\/a> resort. Between Katie’s super low-back vintage silk gown and black platform Yves Saint Laurent<\/a> heels, we can’t get enough of her bridal style! Photographer Evangeline Lane<\/a> captured Katie and Gio’s day beautifully, including some epic beachy portraits.<\/p>\n

I wore a white satin vintage gown with Saint Laurent<\/a> black heels and pearl earnings from Melissa Joy Manning<\/a>. I was lucky that my best friends are hair and makeup artist so they did my beauty looks. <\/em><\/p>\n

The destination (Tulum, Mexico) helped to set the vibe – we tried to reflect the style and vibe of the location.<\/em><\/p>\n

We had a surf and turf style barbeque (served at the table) with a Mexican spin. By merging bbq style dining with waited table service we tried to keep the reception both elegant yet familiar.<\/em><\/p>\n
