hacienda siesta alegre photos of a destination wedding bridge

Hacienda Siesta Alegre is one of Puerto Rico's top wedding venues, and for good reason. The lush gardens and magical setting create an enchanting, genuinely unique atmosphere.

As a destination wedding photographer, this venue offers a breathtaking backdrop for capturing timeless moments. The courtyard transforms into a dance floor under the moonlight, creating a romantic ambiance that perfectly complements the laughter, embraces, and promises made on this special day.

It's located in Rio Grande, the town famous for El Yunque National Rainforest. This colonial hacienda estate is both a bed and breakfast and a wedding venue fit for elopements and weddings of all sizes.

Hacienda Siesta Alegre is more than just a location – it's a character in your love story.

Carolyn's Review

From the first email I received from Camille, I knew I was going to love her. Warm, professional and efficient--everything you would want in your wedding photographer. Camille was truly a favorite of all our wedding vendors---so so fast on email responses, very friendly and personable and also very clear in her emails and website on what to expect. For me, I don't think you COULD find a better wedding photographer so save yourself the hassle of reading a million other reviews on wedding wire and belaboring an easy decision--Camille is the best choice for anyone getting married in the San Juan area--even better if you're getting married at La Hacienda Siesta Alegre as I think her shots of the magical twinkling lights and the beautiful atmosphere are unparalleled!

We got a package that included a one-hour session on top of the wedding day and I would highly recommend getting this package to get some shots in Old San Juan AND so you can get to know Camille before the day of. The wedding day go SO fast and you are fitting in so much that I think it's much better to get a chance to meet your photographer in person prior (I'm from Boston so only opportunity to meet was the week of the wedding).

ALSO, you will not get faster turnaround on photos. I have friends who waited 4 months for their wedding proofs and I got mine in less than two weeks.

To summarize, BEST BEST BEST. Can't say enough good things--my husband Carlos also thought she was an amazing photographer and he's picky about photos 🙂

Hacienda Siesta Alegre wedding by destination photographer Camille Fontanez

Autumn's Review

Camille was the first vendor we booked after deciding to get married in Puerto Rico. Her work was one of the biggest factors in our deciding to have a destination wedding at Hacienda Siesta Alegre. From the first phone call, I knew her presence would be calming and that she would help us to feel comfortable on our wedding day. Her booking system was simple and easy to use, she completes all tasks early, and is simply a joy to work with. Despite the weather and our running behind schedule on the day of, Camille was able to take every picture we wanted and then some. Looking back on our wedding day, it was magical, and that is in large part to Camille’s beautiful photos!
