Carmen and Joe's ceremony took place at the Santo Toribio Church, one of the oldest and most beautiful Catholic churches in the old colonial city of Cartagena, Colombia. The bride arrived on a horse-drawn carriage, while the groom walked through the old city streets to the church.
After the ceremony, the guests were greeted by professional dancers who guided the guests to the rhythm of festive music to the reception venue. It was a true street party.
The reception at Sofitel Legend Santa Clara was once the church to the then convent during the colonial era and is a spectacular venue. The staff dressed up as monks to pop the champagne bottles creating a seriously unforgettable experience for everyone. This Caribbean destination wedding in Colombia is a spectacle for the eyes…

Columbia?! Go Lions!
Thanks, fixed that typo. (As a graduate of the Columbia Publishing Course, you can see why it slipped right through my eyeballs — DOH!)
That looks like one heck of a party.
Thanks for hiring dancers. More people should hire dancers for everything. Support the arts!
