Eclipse-Themed Beach Wedding in Costa Rica

A tropical wedding celebration at Villa Mareas in Dominical, Costa Rica—captured with our La Paloma package, featuring timeless Super 8 footage and breathtaking drone cinematography.

The Story

Linny + Peter

Linny and Peter got engaged during a total solar eclipse in Chile—a moment that became the inspiration for their entire wedding. The eclipse represented them coming together like the sun and the moon, and they brought that celestial vision to life at Villa Mareas in Dominical, Costa Rica.They celebrated with 35 guests over an intimate week of tropical beauty and adventure. Linny, a graphic designer and chronic crafter, DIY-ed countless details—including her own wedding dress—filling the celebration with twinkling stars and shimmering gold and white touches. The drone footage captured the stunning contrast of wild jungle meeting the Pacific coastline and Super 8 completed the texture of this film. Working alongside Chris + Ruth Photography, whose work we've admired for years, was an absolute pleasure. It was also cool that Linny put in a lot of great effort and got the wedding featured on Green Wedding Shoes.

Couple Review

WOW. This is absolutely amazing. We have already watched the video 100 times and video called some family to watch it with them. It's perfect. Everything we wanted and more. We love the music, the epic drone shots and Super 8, how you captured the adventurous spirit of Costa Rica and the fun party moments - everything! Thank you so much for this incredible video we will cherish forever.

Add-On Experience

Super 8 and Drone Add-On

While super 8 adds a nostalgic feel that we always love, drone captures your wedding from aerial perspectives you could never see from land. This couple chose to add both and you see how it pays off in beautiful Costa Rica.
