TESTIMONIALS
Reviews of Joice Dahianna as Your Elopement Photographer in Costa Rica
We had such a wonderful experience working with Joice and Diego for our wedding in Costa Rica. From the very beginning, they went out of their way to support us and were incredibly attentive all the way up to the wedding day.
We really appreciated the tender care and thoughtfulness they gave to all of our requests. They made us feel heard, supported, and genuinely cared for throughout the process, which meant so much during such a special and emotional time.
And the photos were absolutely beautiful. They captured everything so naturally and artistically, and we were also delightfully surprised by the drone footage — such an amazing bonus that made our memories feel even more cinematic and special.
Joice and Diego are truly an excellent team. We loved their energy and felt so comfortable with them. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone planning an elopement or wedding in Costa Rica!

Want Help Planning the Logistics? We’ve Got You.
Eloping doesn’t mean doing it alone. For couples who’d rather not coordinate permits, officiants, or trail logistics, planning partner Ceilyn Castro of Your White Wedding builds the full experience around their chosen location — so all they have to do is show up and say «I do.»
Ceilyn’s approach starts before flowers or decor, with the experience itself:
How do they want to feel that day?
What landscape tells their story?
What will the journey look like — the hike in, the walk out?
What moments do they want to remember?
How does Costa Rica become part of their story, not just the backdrop?
From there, location, timing, and logistics follow — permits, timing, local vendors, all handled behind the scenes, especially useful for couples coming from abroad. Available on request; just reach out for a custom quote..
