In Guatemala, the perfect location for a Destination Wedding is Antigua Guatemala, but Why Antigua is a great Destination Wedding location? Because it´s wonderful, and has a little bit of everything. Antigua is recognized for its colonial architecture, Holy Week, beautiful surroundings, coffee, cobblestone streets, typical sweets, cultural activities, “alfombras” (sawdust carpets), Spanish schools, local and international cuisine, folklore and mysticism, jade, crafts, and much more.With everything it has to offer, Antigua Guatemala is the ideal location for destination weddings.

If you want to get married in Antigua Guatemala, hire a wedding coordinator or planner from the country. She will be knowledgeable about the local vendors, marriage procedures and destination facts that can simplify the planning process.

You have to choose someone who is easily accessible, with internet access, so you don’t have to call her long-distance all the time. A weeding coordinator can personalize your wedding and incorporate local traditions or customs, which can make destination weddings more memorable.

Antigua Guatemala: Parque Central

2010-09-12T23:43:00.003-06:00

"In 1541, the first streets and avenues of the new city were designed in accordance with "Law Recompilation for the Indies Kingdom", so all the streets and avenues had to start in a straight line from the central plaza, where the first buildings were located at that time. Today we can still observe the beauty of La Antigua Guatemala's Central Plaza. And although it suffered a lot of changes since then, it still remains with its colonial buildings surrounding it, such as the: Cathedral, the Palace of the General Captains, the City Hall Palace, and the Trade Hall. A beautiful fountain with stone mermaids also decorates the middle of the plaza, and is located at the center of the buildings named above. This fountain provides a unique colonial environment, combined with the natural branches of the trees that surround it.

The first fountain placed in the middle of the park was "La Gomera Fountain", placed during the water introduction in 1555 and installed during 1667. The second one, "The Mermaids Fountain" made by the architect of the city, Diego de Porres, was installed between the years of 1737 and 1738, and is the fountain that you can still observe now days.

The central Plaza traditionally has been the ideal place for the indigenous handicrafts trade (even when la Antigua Guatemala has its own specific building for the trade of these kind of products). Also several private stores to buy these items, and a market located inside the Jesuit monument (transferred there since 1912). Above all this, you can still see indigenous salespersons offering handmade articles of great folklore and beauty.

Its exquisite gardening is combined with some benches and small trails. With no question about it, the Central Plaza is the meeting point for thousands of people from different cultures and countries. In the plaza a lot of cultural, entertaining and folkloric activities are held frequently."

Frente al Parque Central y/o Plaza de la Constitución

"La Catedral de Guatemala tiene 100 varas de longitud, 46 de latitud y 22 de altura en la nave mayor. El cimborrio se eleva sobre ésta 12 varas y las naves disminuyen del centro hacia los lados en proporción de alto y ancho. Está dotada de siete grandes puertas y de ochenta y ocho ventanas. La columnata de la nave central es de orden compuesto, la de las otras naves de orden dórico. A cada lado del crucero tiene una capilla de gran extensión, ambas dotadas de sacristía y coro, y en medio la silla episcopal, detrás de la que se encuentra la capilla mayor, que ocupa el centro del crucero, debajo del cimborrio. En la cabecera de la nave central se halla el coro, en cuyo centro figuró el colosal Facistol: en él se hicieron incrustaciones de conchanácar, arabescos, las armas de la iglesia, el escudo español, flores y hojas, que lo hacían una hermosa obra de arte."

Guatemala sinkhole, 2010

2010-06-17T21:13:00.009-06:00

In May, 2010; heavy rains from tropical storm Agatha and the lack of maintenance of the collectors likely triggered the collapse of a huge sinkhole in Guatemala City. The sinkhole has a depth of 40* meters and a diameter of 21.75* meters (likely to increase).

A sinkhole, also known as a sink, shake hole, swallow hole, swallet, doline or cenote, is a natural depression or hole in the earth's surface caused by karst processes (from wikipedia).
