Destination Bridal Editorial in Cartagena, Colombia at Sofitel Legend Santa Clara

At the edge of the Caribbean, where terracotta rooftops meet cathedral domes, a bridal muse dances through Cartagena’s storied streets. In this dreamlike editorial — captured by the cinematic soul, Chris J. Evans, and produced with artistic precision by Mel George Weddings — every frame hums with elegance and movement.

The setting is Sofitel Legend Santa Clara, a 17th-century convent turned luxury sanctuary, where light spills through arches and history lingers in every corner. Our bride glides like poetry in motion; gowns blooming with embroidered florals, silk organza and sculpted bodices, framing her as both goddess and guest of honor.

From bougainvillea-laced balconies to crumbling stone walls, the narrative unfolds like a love letter to time and texture. The city pulses around her — vivid, romantic, alive — while she remains anchored in quiet beauty. As sun gives way to twilight, she ascends the rooftop of Santuario de San Pedro Claver, her silhouette striking against a dusky sky. Below, Cartagena glows like an ember.

And then, barefoot in a vintage convertible, laughter echoing down cobbled lanes... she becomes the embodiment of joy. The final frames capture a bride who’s choosing to be remembered.
