Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Alek Manoah and wife Marielena look 'perfect' in photos from wedding weekend
The couple tied the knot last weekend during a fairytale destination wedding in Puerto Rico.
Marielena and Alek Manoah are giving fans another glimpse into their destination wedding weekend.
On Wednesday, the now-wife of the Toronto Blue Jays pitcher treated fans to another series of photos documenting their pre-wedding festivities in Puerto Rico last weekend.
In the candid snaps, the couple kicked off the weekend ahead of their wedding ceremony with "welcome drinks" on the beach alongside their loved ones. Marielena dazzled in a plunging green satin gown with trumpet sleeves and a thigh-high slit. Meanwhile, Alek opted for a stylish ensemble, pairing a floral copper blazer with matching shorts, a black T-shirt, and aquamarine Nike sneakers.
"Doing a little series of our wedding weekend," Marielena announced in the caption to her post before joking, "a little too much tequila might've been consumed, but everyone survived! We instantly felt how loved we were by those around us and how special our weekend would be after laughing, smiling and dancing all night long!"
In the comments, fans swooned over Marielena's wedding weekend look and congratulated the newlyweds on the next chapter of their love story.
"That dress is so beautiful, OMG. I love it. Congrats, you two," one person wrote.
Another Instagram user commented: "What a wonderful celebration of your love. Beautiful photos."
"Best way to kick off the weekend!" someone else chimed in.
"Really beautiful photos. Congratulations on tying the knot. You two look perfect together!" a fan added.
On Tuesday, Alek shared a carousel of candid pictures from their reception, where they celebrated on the dance floor, cut their cake and posed with their wedding party.
"La fiesta," his caption read, alongside microphone, champagne glass, party popper and disco ball emojis.
The MLBer uploaded a second set of Instagram photos from the wedding ceremony and reception, including some heartwarming moments including him lifting Marielena and kissing her as they walked down the aisle after saying "I do."
"What a blessing! The Manoahs," he captioned the post, alongside a prayer hands emoji.
The pair, who have been together since their college days in 2015, announced their engagement one year ago after Alek popped the question on New Year's Eve.
Marielena shared photos documenting the proposal paired with the caption: "Best way to start the year... Yes, a million times!"
