Sophie and Joonmo’s Story
"We wanted our wedding to feel like us - simple, stress-free, and full of joy."
Sophie & Joonmo

Sophie and Joonmo go way back, 8th grade, to be exact. They dated for one week, then things fizzled after a hilarious gift exchange - Joon gave Sophie a one-dollar bill for Christmas! Years later, life nudged them together again with a chance bump at a neighborhood café. And sparks flew all over again. They’ve been inseparable ever since.

On New Year’s Eve, Joon planned an unforgettable proposal. After church, he “needed” to swing by home for something. When they parked, he blindfolded Sophie and led her into the backyard. Their favorite song played, the decorations glowed, and when she lifted the blindfold she found “Marry Me” spelled out before her. It was a magical moment, she says she’ll cherish forever.

They picked Mexico because they wanted a relaxed, low-maintenance celebration with only their closest friends. Secrets Playa Blanca was the perfect fit. And their wedding décor was just the way they wanted it - neutral tones and simple styling. Plus, they got what they had dreamed of - a wedding full of easy conversations, barefoot laughs, and a party where everyone felt at home.
