What does a post-Maria Barefoot on the Beach wedding look like?
From the very day that Hurricane Maria visited Puerto Rico, we were keen to spread the word that our beaches are still beautiful and our island is still a wonderful place to visit.

As we pulled into town the other night, I was struck by how much better everything looked. People were out and […]
Day 1: Returning and First Impressions
So, we’re back on the island! We were in Puerto Rico for Hurricane Maria. We evacuated a week after the storm so as to give her time to get back on her feet a bit. And passing the time in North Carolina allowed us to spend some time with loved ones while staying in touch […]
