An Unforgettable Stay at Hotel El Convento
We are incredibly grateful to Hotel El Convento's Catering Manager, Nelia T. Sánchez Ramos and her dedicated team for their unwavering support and accommodations throughout our wedding planning process. Their close attention to detail and commitment to our vision ensured that every aspect of our special day was flawless.
The wedding rehearsal dinner held in Salon Martorell was nothing short of spectacular. The tapas-style dinner was not only unique but also exquisitely delicious, offering a variety of Puerto Rican flavors that delighted all of our guests. The ambiance of the salon, combined with the exceptional service, made the evening truly memorable.
Our romantic, tropical dream wedding was brought to life with the help of the GORGEOUS venue, Salon Campeche, and all of the incredible members of the catering team. From the beautiful setting to the impeccable service, every moment was filled with joy and love. My husband and I extend our heartfelt gratitude to each and every person who played a part in making our wedding day an unforgettable experience.
Thank you, Hotel El Convento, for making our greatest wedding dreams come true. We will cherish these memories forever!
