Featuring Nicholas Galindo and Jennica Sandoval
Nick and Jennica’s love story began in 2015 at a serendipitous party, orchestrated by mutual friends, where a shared balcony kiss marked the start of their journey. Over a decade later, on September 23rd, 2023, Nick surprised Jennica with a proposal in their hometown, surrounded by their loved ones and their beloved dogs, Juice and Wally. It was a moment filled with tears of joy and overwhelming love, culminating in a heartfelt ‘YES’ under the stars.
Their wedding, held in the picturesque setting of Boracay, embraced a vibrant tropical palette inspired by Jennica’s family’s Indian wedding. Personal touches included custom napkins with Juice and Wally’s faces, and a unique bar sign proclaiming ‘Drinks on us!’ Their wedding logo, NJ with a palm tree, symbolized the iconic moment of Nick’s proposal amidst palm trees, coming full circle on their special day.
Honoring departed loved ones was paramount, with Nick wearing his late father’s shoes, and Jennica surprising him with a pocket watch engraved ‘Always.’ Framed photos and a touching ceremony tribute ensured their presence was felt. Custom magazines as wedding programs encapsulated Jennica’s childhood dream of a fairytale wedding, now a reality shared with Nick.
From lively fire dancers to surprise performances, including Nick and Jennica’s hip hop surprise for Nick, every moment radiated their love for fun and celebration.
Their heartfelt vows, accompanied by tear-inducing speeches and a viral Instagram video of the mother-daughter dance to ABBA’s ‘Dancing Queen,’ captured the essence of their joyous union.
A standout moment was their surprise first dance on the beach, illuminated by sky-high light beams synced to their dance moves, leaving guests mesmerized. This, coupled with a tropical elegance theme, perfectly mirrored their sophisticated yet carefree personalities.
Nicholas and Jennica’s wedding was more than a celebration; it was a testament to their unwavering love, shared passions, and the vibrant spirit that defines their journey together.
As they embark on this new chapter of their lives, their wedding remains etched in hearts, a beacon of love and happiness.
