A Tropical Love Story: Meg & Jordan
Meg and Jordan met in 2015 through mutual friends in Boston, where the couple still live today. They fell in love over traveling, trying new restaurants, spending time with family and friends, and laughter. The couple’s travels included a yearly two-week trip to St. John.

“We know a destination wedding was a lot to ask our guests, but we were so excited to show off our favorite place,” says Meg. “Our friends and family were not disappointed.” Meg shares her thoughts on the couple’s Virgin Islands wedding vendors.

Irene & Baci’s Oceanfront “I Do”
It was truly a chance meeting when Irene Holman of Chicago and Philip “Baci” Bacigaluppi of Florida met in the Sunshine State. Irene and her sister were visiting a good friend in the Lauderdale by the Sea when the couple met.

“This is our second marriage, and we decided to do things a bit differently,” says Irene. “We picked the USVI as we had both visited and had great experiences. We wanted a destination wedding and hadn’t decided where until we visited St. John and fell in love with the location – specifically, Gallows Point and Cruz Bay.”
