Destination Wedding at Hacienda Tekik de Regil 💎 Lorena & Jorge

Lorena and Jorge after 13 years of friendship, decided to unite their lives in an important step for them: marriage. And so, from the city of Tamaulipas, they both decided that Yucatan would be the perfect destination to celebrate their wedding in one of the haciendas of the state. 

Like Gatsby and Daisy

The morning of the wedding began with Lorena getting ready. She spent a moment of happiness and pure relaxation in one of the rooms of the hacienda Tekik de Regil, where she enjoyed her hair and makeup service. 

The beautiful bride chose a semi up-do hairstyle that matched perfectly with the headdress around her head which had a flower and a few feathers, very much like 1920’s style. After her hair was done, It was time to put on her wedding dress with the help of her mother who was with her in the room. The mermaid cut dress with lace details on the top and cauda made Lorena a very elegant bride who looked like an actress out of a Hollywood movie. As for Jorge, he wore a navy blue suit and white shirt.

Like a movie scene

When it was time for the first look, Lorena and Jorge met in the corridors of the hacienda, like in a movie scene. The couple then had a photoshoot before the religious ceremony where they would unite their lives in the presence of God. 

The couple chose to get married in a religious ceremony in the Hacienda’s chapel, a beautiful building on the outskirts of the hacienda adorned with imposing columns.

A heavenly Chapel 

The chapel was adorned with flowers in white and neutral tones arranged throughout the space along with elegant white chairs for the guests who were already anxiously awaiting the entrance of the cortege.

The priest gave the welcome and down the aisle, Jorge began to walk hand in hand with his mother, followed by the bridesmaids and groomsmen. In the end, Lorena appeared hand in hand with her father who accompanied her to the altar and gave her hand to Jorge. The ceremony began and the priest made sure to make all the guests feel part of the beautiful love story of this couple.

The blessing of God

The readings and the psalm were read and for the moment of the marriage ritual, the groomsmen came forward with the ribbon, the rings, and the arras to be blessed and given to the couple.

The ceremony concluded with an emotional kiss between the newlyweds and the applause of all the guests who celebrated the beginning of a new chapter in the life of Lorena and Jorge.

“Great Gatsby” wedding

Since the wedding reception was inspired by the Great Gatsby a classic carriage could be seen at the entrance, matching the atmosphere of the twenties. The party started with the entrance of the bride and groom, everyone cheered for the happiness of these young lovers. 

The dance floor opened with the melody of the saxophone to invite the bride and groom to dance with their parents, undoubtedly one of the most emotional moments of the evening.

The evening was full of surprises, the first was a charleston style dance number inspired by the great gatsby by a ballet that dressed in fringed dresses and wigs with bright colors, to contrast with this, there was also a folkloric dance number typical of our state, the jarana.

These dance numbers left the guests excited, surprised, and of course, ready to start enjoying the dance floor. The music started to play and all the attendees approached the dance floor to celebrate love.
