A Whimsical Destination Beach Wedding at Gran Caribe Real Resort in Cancun, Mexico

Friends and family of Marian Enriquez (28 and a materials manager) and Andrew Strider (34 and a purchasing manager) came together in Cancun, Mexico from all over the world to celebrate the union of two people and cultures. The two met while working for the same company in different countries; Marian in Mexico and Andrew in the U.S. For many months, they spent a lot of time corresponding to each other via the Internet, and when finally met for the first time at a work event, they immediately fell for each other. After some time dating far apart, Andrew proposed, and Marian moved to the U.S. to be with him. The two decided to have a beachside wedding in Cancun, Mexico, at the Gran Caribe Real Resort. Their aqua and tangerine color palette accented the natural beauty around them and created a light, festive atmosphere for their celebration.
