surprise ibiza proposal 'es vedra'
was One to Remember
Magical Attraction
" You have been selected for a Smile Moment" it said on the note that was put under the door of Trenton Wolf and Ashley Mascarenas´ hotel room during their stay in Ibiza. And certainly made them smile. But Ashley had no idea back then what the real reason would be for her ´ Great Big Smile´....
Ask Trenton and Ashley about the day they first met, and they both start to glow right away. " That was 2,5 years ago" says Ashley. " We´re both from Colorado and had both gone out with friends. When we saw each other, it was an instant attraction. The pull between us was so strong, like a magnetic force, and it wasn't long before we were madly in love.
What Ashley didn´t know, however, was that Trenton had actually prepared their visit to Ibiza much more carefully then he suggested. So when the Grand Palladium Hotel manager slid a note under their door saying they have been selected for a " Smile Moment". Ashley didn´t suspect anything. The note said that the next day they would start with a bite to eat in their favorite restaurant and afterwards would be surprised with an amazing ´sunset experience´.
The next day Ashley and Trenton were collected from the restaurant and taken to a beautiful spot on the island with a view of Es Vedra. It was then that Ashley discovered the romantic picknic set near the cliff, a small distance away form everone else. this is where the ´smile moment´ would begin. But it wasn´t until the champagne was poured, a singer started Bruno Mars´song Marry Me, and Trenton got down on one knee, that Ashley realised what was really in store for her. And of course She said yes !
When Trenton heard before the trip about the magnetic forces of Es Vedra, he knew this is the most perfect spot in the world to propose to Ashley. After all, the attraction between them has been as strong as a magnet from day one.
It was so stunning, on the cliffs and all the sailing boats in the water under and a spectacular sunset in the background. For me a real pleasure to turn this special moment in a ´story for ever´ with photographs . Nothing was certain but is was all meant to be, the whole plan went perfectly. Not knowing all the ingredients, was the best part. I love photographing love stories with my hearth as compas and guidnes fromthe stunning Ibiza light . This is my Ibiza and feel, and the reason I work on this island for such a long time with so much happiness !
