Once upon a time, in a not-so-small town, two young professionals were making their way in the world. Dr. Rebecca Schleisman, a veterinarian and Dr. Varun Tandon, a cardiologist may have studied on different Caribbean islands, but their paths were destined to cross in Phoenix, Arizona. They met on May 2, 2021 at a cozy local restaurant called The Living Room. They felt an instant connection and spent the entire evening talking about their experiences on the different islands. Rebecca couldn't help but to be impressed by Varun's knowledge and passion for his field. Varun on the other hand, was captivated by Rebecca's dedication to her patients and love of animals. They quickly discovered they shared many interests and values including their love of travel, good food, and spending time with family and friends.
Over the next two years, they embarked on many adventures together. They kayaked rivers, hiked mountains, and explored new cities. They moved in together and adopted a golden retriever puppy. They supported each other through the stresses of their demanding careers and found solace in each other's company.
As their love grew stronger, they knew they had found something special. One day, on a romantic getaway to the Florida beaches, Varun proposed to Rebecca and she said yes without hesitation.
Now, they are excited to embark on a new journey together as husband and wife, grateful for the chance encounter that brought them together.
On a beautiful spring day in Florida, Varun and Rebecca were celebrating Rebecca's birthday with a day full of fun activities. Varun had planned everything to perfection, from a delicious brunch to relaxing couples massages. They even went horseback riding on the beach, enjoying the beautiful scenery and each other's company.
As the day began to wind down, Varun suggested they take a walk on the beach to enjoy the sunset. Rebecca had no idea what was coming next!
As they walked hand in hand, their favorite song started playing in the background. Rebecca turned to Varun and he took her hands in his, looking deeply into her eyes. He told her how much he loved her, how much she meant to him, and how he wanted to spend the rest his life with her. Then, he got down on one knee and asked her to be his wife.
Rebecca was overjoyed and tears streamed down her face as she said yes. They embraced each other, and a nearby photographer was ready to capture the moment perfectly, freezing that special moment in time forever.
As they walked back to their romantic dinner, Rebecca couldn't believe how perfect the day had been. Varun had truly outdone himself, creating a day full of love, laughter, and memories that they would cherish for the rest of their lives.
As soon as Rebecca and Varun got engaged, they knew they wanted to have a destination wedding on the beach. With family and friends scattered throughout the United States, Canada, and Norway, a destination wedding made perfect sense.
Having both gone to school in the Caribbean, they knew they wanted to return to that beautiful part of the world to say their vows. After researching many options, they settled on Jamaica as they both loved the pristine beaches and vibrant culture.
The next step was finding the perfect venue. After looking at many locations, they fell in love with a stunning beach front all inclusive resort that offered everything they were looking for, from a beautiful ceremony location on the beach, to a luxurious reception area.
