I saw it was your anniversary and since I only started following you after Neo’s birth I had to come and see the wedding week!What an event and such a beautiful wedding!I enjoyed watching so much!
If you host a retreat like this I would love to experience it. You're a beautiful couple and I wish you nothing but the best. I was in tears for most of this video, just a beautiful experience.
I’m so curious about the logistics of an event like this! Did you have someone coordinate the entire week’s worth of activities in addition to the actual wedding? Did your guests pay for the cost of lodging/food or did you cover that? Who filmed/photographed everything for you? It seems like such a well orchestrated event and was lots of fun to watch!
I wasn’t at this wedding but I’ve been to dozens & I’ve never had any couple pick up the tab for my food and lodging. That would be incredibly expensive! Of course, dinner is usually served at the reception & sometImes a breakfast the next morning.
Same, been on destination weddings and the couple does not pick up the tab except for the reception. What I suspect is this is a resort that have whole day packages (ie food activities etc), and the guest benefits from it being discounted due to the couple held the wedding in the venue, big group discount and of course spending the time with everyone you know or have same interests
I´m Costa rican , and can atest that indeed you got one of THE BEST SALSA BANDS in the country. Lovely wedding retreat.! Sending great wishes for the rest of your lives Raya and Louis. Pura Vida.!!!
Even your video made me feel a little bit like everyone described. I feel love and freedom to do anything for being happy and develop my true self. I don’t know how you are doing it, but it really touching my soul. Love your community that is connected trough your love. ❤️
Dear Raya and Louis, My journey of following you both started in 2013, well back then I only discovered Louis here on UA-cam. As a teenager I inhaled his travelvlogs and he inspired me to make smal backpacking trips with m friends here in Europe during our schoolbreakes. Long before I gratuated I knew I wanted to travel the world, as Louis has shown me, that it is possible. So while I finished Highschool I started to work to be able to pay a flight. I was only 18 years old, when I decided spontaniosly to go to Argentina without knowing any word of spanish or anyone over there. In the end I spend a total of 3 years in Latin America, and consider Spanish my Mothertounge now ;) I worked in a lot of permaculture and bioconstruction projects and voluntered in comunitys like yours. I fell in love with the people, the cultures, the way of live I had created for myself and eventually with my now boyfriend of 5 years (it was our aniiversary yesterday :) ). He is from Argentina, I am from Germany and France, after a long time without seeing my family and friends here we decided to continue our way in europe for a bit. We even bought a Van and build it our self to live in it. The pandamic hit, when we were in the South of Spain with our van. We quickly had to make a decision, and as things looked worse and worse in Spain, we decided to make our way to Cologne, Germany, as we knew at least here we were able to work and wait until things would calm down. It has been 2 Years now since we came to Cologne and staying in this city for that amount of time, has tought me so much.After moving around the world basically for 5 years I had forgotten how much I needed a comunity around myself, a stable one. How nice it feels to move around a city and feel that you belong. During Covid I started to give language classes online and developed a passion for teaching the languages I speak. Now 2 Years have gone by, and I slowly start to feel the ace of moving, but with a lot calmer tempo. With my boyfriend we want to move to Barcelona by the end of this year. Through all the years I have had an idea in my mind, which was to live with likeminded people in a beautyful enviroment and live for and from the earth. With all the decicisions I took I would always try to bring me a step closer to this vision. With all I learn, I see it as a preparation for the time I will get to realise what I dream of. I would love to get to know Costarica end specifically your comunity, it would truly feel like a full circle moment before creating my own space. My boyfriend and I sometimes joke about how we would plan a wedding. Seeing your Videos was so much joy, as the main elements we named where all included in your celebration. I never told my story with strangers like this, but after watching your wedding series I just felt a call to say thank you for beeing such an inspiration in nearly 10 years, you helped me to have the courage to model my life to what I want it to be. If anyone wants to get in touch with me for whatever reason I will leave my Instagram here : :instagram.com/saraheleonoree/ I wish everyone a happy life, may your dreams come true! Sarah Eléonore
This is so wholesome and inspiring! I love how everyone was really open about this experience. I also feel like as an introvert group situations make me really nervous, but I can see how the openness and love of the community space you created would even calm people like me that are afraid of acting weird or not being perfect, smart or anything in a crowd. I would love videos by you that can teach us how to embrace this community thinking. Thank you so much for sharing this community experience! 🧡
Raya and Louis, your friends are the most beautiful people I have ever seen. You are so blessed, they are so blessed. The workshops you shared were life changing. I feel like I have changed just watching the clips that you have so generously shared with this group. Best wishes always to you and all of the beautiful people present during your wedding celebration.
I came here from watching Kara and Nate when you guys first collabed. Honestly, watching you guys since then has changed so much of my perspective of life and love. I have envisioned myself par-taking in some of the moments you guys have curated even outside of this wedding and have wondered how uncomfortable I would be in some of the scenarios. I want to live in that uncomforability...i agree that if you guys do ever create a retreat like this I would give up so much to be able to partake. Wishing you two all the light and love you two deserve.
How is it possible to bring together soooo many AMAZING people ?!?! As Raya said, none of this magic would have been possible without every all theses perfect guests ! 💕💕💕💕💕
I mean, really, the 2 of you could take your week-long wedding plans (minus the actual wedding), and turn those plans into a business. As you said, people are VERY interested in all of those things you had during your wedding. I mean, it really was like a workshop on wellness. So yeah, it could be a great business
I attended the LTA Summit in Kern Valley and I still think of how incredible those few days were. I can only imagine how amazing this week was. I would LOVE to attend a retreat. Ps I just booked a FTLOT trip to Colombia and after saw it was curated by Louis… perhaps destined to keep crossing paths!
Just watching this has inspired and refreshed me so much, I can't imagine how rejuvenating it must have been to be there. Absolutely the most beautiful wedding ever. Its all about the love and making the world a better place. May you continue to spread the light❤️🙌
I can't help to wonder how much did the food cost for every day and how many meals a day...it seems like a lot of planning . I would like to know the planning details. What it took...it was so well done
Thank You Raya, Louis and Wedding Family! You are all bright lights magnifying what is right and possible, and my love for you is “unfettered and alive”! Brilliant retreat idea. World peace is karmically impossible, but a peaceful world is absolutely attainable, you’ve demonstrated this time and time again. I believe you all are soul angels! Blessings to you and yours. 🤟🎁🎶🧚♀️🦄🍄💗🕺
I have been so moved by just watching the videos from your wedding retreat. Thank you so much for sharing it with us and I really hope to attend one in the future!
Still smiling and crying 🙏🌺🌴❤️.. thank you for sharing this just .. gorgeous ..wedding and reconnection of community and spirit.. there is still hope out there 😘🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Omg please please do organize other retreats that we could go to! I would be there without hesitating for even a second! Lots and lots of love to both of you xxx
Awesome. Another video. Was so wonderful to see everyone getting involved and coming put of their comfort zones. The love journal was such a lovely thought xx
Such a beautiful wedding week!!! You both are so special!! Welcome to Costa Rica!! My place is very close to Santa Teresa in San Isidro de Cóbano, you passed by my property. You are making me revisit some plans to maybe form an Eco community on my land. 😊 CR is truly a wonderful place!!! Right now I'm living in the states helping my older mother. I invited you to my glass studio when you guys were in Boston, unfortunately you'd already left. But I so appreciated that you responded. A beautiful and amazing wedding week and couple!!! 🥰🥰 And last episode you included Jorge a local tico dude, such a treat to see him!! 💜 Love your wife!! 😊
What an incredible experience to have with beautiful humans and what a way to begin your new chapter, Raya & Louis. Can’t wait to see 👶🏼👧🏻🧒🏼 - best of luck beautiful people 💫💕
This journey has been magical! I've been watching you too for several years now and you can't imagine how much you have influenced me on how I want to live my life. I'm getting married in two months and seeing your wedding has made me think a lot about mine. And, even if we can't have something like this, I really hope that our guests have at least half of the great time yours had. 🧡 I'm chronically ill and I can't fly long distances but if you ever organice a retreat in Europe... I'll be there for sure!! Thank you so much for letting us be a part of your journey and feel the love around you! 🧡✨
What an amazing video. It was like being part of a giant heart hug. The love and spirit is once again palpable. Thanks for sharing your amazing and beautiful community with us. I look forward to seeing what lies ahead in your journey together♥. Love and light from the East Coast of Canada♥♥♥
This was so wholesome. And it was especially emotional for me because your mom, Raya, really reminds me of my own mom (both visually and in the way she speaks) and how happy she would've been to have seen me marry my partner. Thank you to you both for sharing your wedding journey. I never expected it to touch me as much as it did, and I'm really grateful for it.
I have truly enjoyed your wedding week videos. Absolutely beautiful, so much love and laughter surrounded by such incredible people. Extremely heart warming. Thank you for sharing this amazing moment with us. Much love n peace and many blessings ✌️💞
A huge congratulations to you both!! We have been watching and loving your videos for a while (but haven't commented before 😔) Your wedding retreat was magical! Thank you for sharing it and serving as an inspiration to others to what love and magic can come from joining as a community and sharing and holding space together. Wishing you both the best all of life has to offer. ❤️
I literally crying on every movie from your wedding week, I’m touched by all this beautiful emotions and huge wave of love 💕💕💕 good luck with the new chapter in your beautiful life ❤️❤️❤️
Howdy I am catching up on the vlogs..... One I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and the Zebra 🦓 is our awareness ribbon.....I SOOOOOO need your dad's shirt! ❤️✌️❤️ Also seeing you filming after the wedding OMG y'all look simply blissful, relaxed and definitely in LOVE 💕 Such a beautiful experience BLESSED
I've really enjoyed watching this view into your beautiful world. Your way of doing things reminds me so much of me & my hubby 😃. If your future retreats are anywhere close to as lovingly designed as this week then I know they will be awesome, and I may even be there! Coincidentally, I've had Alegria on my radar for a year... it truly lines up better than any other eco village I know of with everything I'm looking for in community. If I didn't own my own home on a beautiful piece of land on Maui, I'd be in Alegria in a heartbeat... although a second home is definitely in our future plans, so we''ll probably visit Costa Rica sometime soon to scope it out.
me crying the whole video hahaha man that was such a beautiful and powerful video. what the sweet woman said this is exactly what this world needs in this moment
I already enjoyed following your weeding retreat on Instagram and love this series here on UA-cam. I can’t see myself getting married the „traditional“ way. Your weeding retreat inspired me. Love the community.
I haven’t kept up with you guys since you started dating but I just saw the pregnancy announcement on tiktok and now I’m watching all these video sobbing🥹 such a beautiful life you both have created together! What a special special wedding week, and congratulations on the pregnancy!
I have to say this is my second time watching this just cause it’s just so sweet and holds so much joy, the lift me up was lovely tonight. I have to say Rob seems so inspired! Just as heart warming on my second watch.
Absolutely the best wedding I've ever seen. I would love to have an experience like that. And I thank you all so much for sharing! Watching these vlogs just make me feel so happy❤
I think it's important to understand that while you may not be able to afford all of this, you can afford to do some of it. Take a couple of items from the videos that you liked best or think might be easiest to do at your wedding and add that into the ceremony or reception. It doesn't have to be a full on retreat to give your guests memories and connections that will last longer than your wedding. Most of the workshops they offered were presented by their friends. I'm assuming you have friends with special talents as well. What if instead you included in the invitation "in lieu of gifts, please contact us with a talent you would like to share with our guests". Then the reception could be a mixture of sharing and celebrating together. Take the tools you learned from this video and make your own traditions. I personally hope to have a music festival for my wedding because my partner and I have so many friends in the local music scene where we live. We plan to allow free entry to close family and friends who received invitations, and all other attendees pay $10 to go back to the music/food/artists we provide most of the day.
Can't wait to attend your first retreat!! My hope is that it will be the exact time that my little family moves to Costa Rica as well. All the best to you both. I can only imagine what a life changing experience it was for your closest friends and family, because even watching it, made my heart and soul feel warm and connected. Thank you for sharing and hope to meet you in person soon! xo
I would Love to gather up my three adult children and be apart of one of those retreats. The four of us have been through a lot. The results could be life altering. You have made a big impact on your friends and family ❤
I love how much community was so front centre at your wedding - you're so inspiring. I would would have volunteered to lead the watermelon frisbee class ;)
I admire the people who aren’t naturals at salsa dancing but threw themselves into with enthusiasm anyway! I don’t think I would be as brave. I am definitely not blessed with an ability to dance. But I guess that doesn’t matter really.
I saw it was your anniversary and since I only started following you after Neo’s birth I had to come and see the wedding week!What an event and such a beautiful wedding!I enjoyed watching so much!
If you host a retreat like this I would love to experience it. You're a beautiful couple and I wish you nothing but the best. I was in tears for most of this video, just a beautiful experience.

I've been thinking about the same since the first wedding episode :)
Me too!!
Yes same! I would love a video of them sitting down and explaining everything actually!
I wasn’t at this wedding but I’ve been to dozens & I’ve never had any couple pick up the tab for my food and lodging. That would be incredibly expensive! Of course, dinner is usually served at the reception & sometImes a breakfast the next morning.

Loved reading your story, all the best with your journey ❤️🌺
I knew that was Raya’s sister even before they added her name. They look so much alike. 2 beautiful girls. 🥰
And her voice too, they are so similar😊
Yes they really do look alike. They both have great hair!
This is so wholesome and inspiring! I love how everyone was really open about this experience. I also feel like as an introvert group situations make me really nervous, but I can see how the openness and love of the community space you created would even calm people like me that are afraid of acting weird or not being perfect, smart or anything in a crowd.

Oh please open a retreat, half way through watching this it was going to be my first question. The world needs people like you. X

I feel like I have changed just watching the clips that you have so generously shared with this group.

These vlogs of your wedding have been truly magical! And have set me up for wanting to build more community and putting love into other people's life!
Just watched this. What an amazing wedding! So many new UA-cam subscriptions.
Absolutely love the idea of creating more events like this and spreading connection around the world
How is it possible to bring together soooo many AMAZING people ?!?!
As Raya said, none of this magic would have been possible without every all theses perfect guests !
💕💕💕💕💕
Blessings to all of you! How beautiful is love!
OMG! Yes please to hosting a retreat! I'm so in!

I am catching up on the vlogs.....
One I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and the Zebra 🦓 is our awareness ribbon.....I SOOOOOO need your dad's shirt! ❤️✌️❤️
Also seeing you filming after the wedding OMG y'all look simply blissful, relaxed and definitely in LOVE 💕
Such a beautiful experience
BLESSED
Everything looked like so much!! You are making me want a wedding like this!!
so beautiful! bless you
Okay, without a lot of words, that was one cool wedding, congratulations guys 👍😎
I've really enjoyed watching this view into your beautiful world. Your way of doing things reminds me so much of me & my hubby 😃. If your future retreats are anywhere close to as lovingly designed as this week then I know they will be awesome, and I may even be there!
Coincidentally, I've had Alegria on my radar for a year... it truly lines up better than any other eco village I know of with everything I'm looking for in community. If I didn't own my own home on a beautiful piece of land on Maui, I'd be in Alegria in a heartbeat... although a second home is definitely in our future plans, so we''ll probably visit Costa Rica sometime soon to scope it out.
thank you for sharing this love with the world. I love watching it and adore the love you see other people give each other.
me crying the whole video hahaha man that was such a beautiful and powerful video. what the sweet woman said this is exactly what this world needs in this moment
I already enjoyed following your weeding retreat on Instagram and love this series here on UA-cam. I can’t see myself getting married the „traditional“ way. Your weeding retreat inspired me. Love the community.
I haven’t kept up with you guys since you started dating but I just saw the pregnancy announcement on tiktok and now I’m watching all these video sobbing🥹 such a beautiful life you both have created together! What a special special wedding week, and congratulations on the pregnancy!
Mama it's over😭. Didn't want this to be the last one but hey loved every bit of it.
Beautiful! You are both so inspiring! I would love to come experience a retreat! That would be amazing.
looks like an amazing wedding!
Beautiful 😊
Raya your yellow dress in the opening meal scene is so beautiful! I love the embroidery! 🧵
I have to say this is my second time watching this just cause it’s just so sweet and holds so much joy, the lift me up was lovely tonight. I have to say Rob seems so inspired! Just as heart warming on my second watch.
Aw I love that! Thank you! ❤️
Absolutely the best wedding I've ever seen. I would love to have an experience like that. And I thank you all so much for sharing! Watching these vlogs just make me feel so happy❤
I am new to your channel and have instantly fallen in love ❤ What a great way to celebrate your wedding.
Morning, happy wednesday
Love your energy & vibe into another episode of wedding at tropical

I can only imagine what a life changing experience it was for your closest friends and family, because even watching it, made my heart and soul feel warm and connected. Thank you for sharing and hope to meet you in person soon! xo
All of it was AMAZING!!!! So happy for you both!!! ❣❤❣
I would Love to gather up my three adult children and be apart of one of those retreats. The four of us have been through a lot. The results could be life altering. You have made a big impact on your friends and family ❤
I love how much community was so front centre at your wedding - you're so inspiring. I would would have volunteered to lead the watermelon frisbee class ;)
I would 110% come to a retreat
Dear human that's reading this, we may not know each other, but I wish you all the best in life!✨
Y'all are wonderful.
Beautifully inspiring 😍😇🤩
I admire the people who aren’t naturals at salsa dancing but threw themselves into with enthusiasm anyway! I don’t think I would be as brave. I am definitely not blessed with an ability to dance. But I guess that doesn’t matter really.
OMG yes a retreat sounds epic! I'm already coming
y'all should do this for a side hustle!!!!!!!! plan amazing week long retreats!!!
