Gozalandia Puerto Rico Elopement: A Love Story as Wild & Free as Nature Itself
Some love stories feel like they belong in a song—bold, passionate, and with a rhythm all their own. Maya and LA’s journey together is precisely that.
When they first visited Puerto Rico, they found themselves enchanted by Gozalandia Falls, a lush oasis tucked away in the mountains of San Sebastián.
Something about its cascading waters, emerald greenery, and serene remoteness spoke to them as if the land was calling them. And so, when the time came to say their vows, there was never any question—this was their place.
A Gozalandia Puerto Rico Elopement
On the morning of their elopement, we set out at sunrise, driving through the winding roads of Puerto Rico’s western mountains.
Arriving at 9 a.m., right when Gozalandia opened, ensured that Maya and LA had the falls almost entirely to themselves—no distractions, just the sounds of rushing water, birdsong, and the quiet, steady beat of their hearts.
There, surrounded by nothing but nature’s untouched beauty, Maya and LA stood hand in hand, their love the only thing more breathtaking than the waterfall behind them.
They shared deeply personal vows, words meant only for each other, exchanged amidst the misty glow of the morning sun filtering through the trees.
A Rockstar Romance in a Caribbean Elopement
From the very start, it was clear that Maya and LA weren’t just soulmates—they were a team, moving through life in perfect sync.
Playful, effortlessly cool, and radiating rockstar confidence, they made every moment feel electric. LA’s sharp white guayabera and matching pants were paired with something that perfectly encapsulated their personality: custom Vans featuring their beloved black cat, Nala.
Maya, radiant in an intricately detailed lace gown from Allure Bridals, carried a bouquet bursting with vibrant tropical blooms. Their handmade and beautifully matched wedding rings reflected their shared commitment to something truly one-of-a-kind.
Every little detail—the way they stole glances, the way LA’s hand fit so naturally into Maya’s, the way they both embraced every moment... gorgeousness!
After the ceremony, we ventured down to the water’s edge, where Maya and LA embraced the adventure fully. Their laughter echoed through the canyon as they stood barefoot on the rocks, the falls roaring behind them. The golden morning light kissed the water, creating a dreamlike scene. It was peaceful, yet thrilling—exactly how they wanted to remember this moment.
Planning an Intimate Destination Wedding at Gozalandia Falls
I believe that adventure elopements aren't just about the stunning backdrops and the photography, but about reclaiming what a wedding could feel like. No big productions, no pressure—just the two of them, promising forever in a way that felt right. A day that is proof that an intimate wedding doesn’t mean sacrificing magic. It means creating something so personal and meaningful that it becomes extraordinary in its own way.
For couples drawn to the idea of an adventure elopement, Gozalandia Falls offers an unparalleled setting—but it’s essential to plan wisely.
The falls are located in a deep foorest where flash floods can occur unpredictably. Arriving early, like Maya and LA did, aims for privacy, safer conditions, and the best lighting.
Puerto Rico Waterfall Wedding: A Love That’s Limitless
As Maya and LA looked back on their wedding day, it wasn’t just about the place—it was about the feeling. Another grand adventure in their love story. Just as the river carves its path through stone, their love moves freely, fearlessly, and forever.
