Anna and Will first met during their second year at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, introduced by mutual friends. Their friendship deepened as they shared classes, worked out together, and experienced college life side by side.

A semester abroad in Florence and supporting one another through the job recruitment process only strengthened their bond, carrying them first to New York City, then Dallas, and finally San Francisco in 2021.

Later that year, during a weekend in Napa Valley, Will proposed, marking the beginning of many wine-tasting adventures together.

For their wedding, the couple envisioned an outdoor celebration that felt relaxed, elegant, and connected to its surroundings. When they visited Esperanza in Cabo San Lucas, the tiered cliffs at Cocina del Mar immediately felt like the perfect setting. Inspired by the natural tones of the sea, sand, and surrounding landscape, Anna and Will worked with Dani Blasena and her team at HauteFêtes to bring their Cabo wedding vision to life.

The weekend unfolded exactly as they hoped: a beachside welcome party with spicy margaritas, a serene ceremony on Esperanza’s private shore, and a cliffside reception that began with a bright pink gazpacho starter and led into a lively dance party by the ocean, complete with DJ and saxophone.

The Bridal Party

From the monochromatic green florals that crowned the bar to the custom-designed chargers at the curved dinner tables, every detail was a thoughtful reflection of their vision.
