Railay Beach Redux - mid February 2011

In mid February Karim headed back to Hong Kong for an INSEAD trek to meet with several luxury goods companies. I decided that would make for a perfect weekend back to Railay Beach to check out prospective wedding venues. My good friend Daniela, a fiery Columbian, agreed to join me for the trip. We had an amazing time together and I can't wait to get married at Railay Beach!

This is the look of pure bliss. Railay Beach is heaven!
