Hacienda Pinilla Wedding | Kristi and Danny

A wedding weekend in Tamarindo, Costa Rica is the perfect combination of celebration, adventure, and beautiful scenery. As a Costa Rica wedding photographer, I loved capturing every part of this unforgettable wedding weekend, from a sunset catamaran cruise to a beautiful Hacienda Pinilla wedding, ending with a fun trash-the-dress session on the beach.

The festivities began with a sunset catamaran trip, giving everyone a chance to relax, enjoy the beautiful Costa Rican coastline, and kick off the weekend together. With the sun setting over the water, it was a beautiful start to the wedding celebrations.

The wedding day at Hacienda Pinilla was absolutely gorgeous. The couple exchanged vows on the grassy lawn overlooking the ocean, surrounded by swaying palm trees. As the sun began to set, the reception continued into the evening with a glowing dance floor and a lively saxophone player who kept everyone dancing. It was everything you could hope for in a Hacienda Pinilla wedding.

To wrap up the weekend, we headed to the beach for a trash-the-dress photo session. It was playful, relaxed, and the perfect way to end such a fun and festive celebration.

As a Costa Rica wedding photographer, these are the weekends I love most—beautiful locations, meaningful moments, and plenty of time to celebrate with the people you love. From the ocean views and sunset adventures to the barefoot beach moments, this Hacienda Pinilla wedding was a perfect reflection of everything that makes a destination wedding in Costa Rica so special.
