Becca & Adrian's wedding blended Disney magic, celestial details and their culture in beautiful and meaningful ways. From incorporating the couple's star signs in Becca's wedding gown, to switching languages during their wedding ceremony, to uniquely Disney details throughout their wedding decor - Becca and Adrian's Disney wedding was a true fairy tale.

Becca shared that she had been dreaming of a Disney’s Fairy Tale Wedding for years and Adrian always hoped for a wedding in Hawaii, so Aulani, a Disney Resort & Spa paired perfectly with their unique wedding visions and became their ideal wedding destination. Setting the scene for an unforgettable week of celebrations.

"Our favorite part was getting to spend the entire week leading up to the day with our friends and family who flew all the way to Hawaii to attend. We had many events leading up to the big day, and by the wedding itself, most of our friends and family knew each other. It really felt like an intimate gathering of our big Ohana."

Becca's wedding dress even had hidden constellations throughout the design, including both her and Adrian's star signs.

Becca and Adrian's Disney wedding ceremony decor included a beautiful arch overlooking the ocean and adorned with tropical floral and palm fronds. An ethereal harp filled the air, and a conch was blown to mark the beginning of the wedding ceremony.

The couple shared that, "we wanted to capture the beauty and richness of the history of Hawaii in our wedding ceremony which our officiant blended perfectly with Adrian's Ecuadorian background, he spoke seamlessly switching among English, Spanish, and Hawaiian."

Following their wedding ceremony, Becca and Adrian captured picture-perfect portraits. Becca recalls one of her "favorite moments of the day was privately taking photos on the rocky part of the beach, having a moment just to truly look at him, seeing my new husband glowing in the amazing Ko Olina sunset and knowing that I get to keep him forever."
