Your dream destination awaits — sofitel Isla barù Calablanca

WATTERS × WEDAWAYS
Isla Barú was such a secluded location, all you need to make a beautiful ceremony is the natural beauty. At Sofitel Isla Barú Calablanca, the grand designs and dramatic spaces paired with the world class cuisine will leave your guests wanting for nothing.
Delicate florals on a soft color, beaded straps Joelle is full of details but leaves just a little bit more for a statement piece.

It was so fun going up to the rooftop at the Sofitel Isla Barú in this gown, and what an incredible place for a cocktail hour! Once again, one of my favorite dresses that I've had the privilege of photographing twice, and it is gorgeous in every setting.

The island of Barú has a calm and serene vibe. Its all about the beach views and blue skies, you literally leave the city behind.

The modern architecture in Isla Barú was just incredible and such a contrast to Sofitel Cartagena! I was incredibly inspired by the reflective surfaces, clean lines, and neutral color schemes and really just leaned into those for most of the shoot.

The local pottery, art and woven crafts are so beautiful, those touches can really add warmth to a space.

Sofitel Isla Barú Calablanca is a beautiful island resort very close to Cartagena. The food, the staff and the rooms were absolutely wonderful. The architecture of the pools and the front entrance are just stunning.
