Cayman Islands Real Wedding :: Agata and Reno, Part 2

I hope you enjoyed some of the details from Agata and Reno’s Cayman Islands wedding yesterday!  Today we’re going to share the portrait session with you along with some of the different and fantastic details that you might not see in photos! 

First, I mentioned yesterday that the vibe was Vintage-Punk.  You may have worked it out already but if not, Reno is in a band (an awesome band, by the way!) that I have gone to see countless times throughout my years in Cayman.  So, when I tell you that these two are rock stars, well, they really are!

Second, these two are vegans and also wanted to  incorporate as many eco-friendly elements as they possibly could.  Living on an island it’s VERY difficult to have a wedding or event with zero carbon footprint, but this couple did their best and made some fantastic choices.  Here are the details:

The sparkling wine we used was Cono Sur, a company that tries to minimize their carbon footprint in their daily operations and their sparkling is vegan (some wines use animal products in the clarification). The red and white were Cooper Hill, organic, bio dynamic, and also vegan.

Beer was strictly Caybrew draft to minimize bottles (CB side note :: Caybrew is a locally made beer who recycles their bottles and their waste-water). Any liquor bottles were crushed and used in some one’s garden. The few cups used were biodegradable/compostable corn product.

All food waste was seperated and composted on site.

For invitations the couple used a web-based invitation and R.S.V.P system instead of printed paper invitations.  Also, the favor was a donation to an elephant sanctuary in Thailand that the couple previously visited.  All of the bridal party steered clear of animal products in their clothing and the groomsmen even wore shoes made with recycled material.

The couple LOVES their dogs and so of course they had to be part of the festivities!  Afterall, they were there for the engagement so it’s only natural they be there on the big day!
