Maria & Frank

For registered nurses, Maria Lozano & Frank Hinojosa, love was just a work shift away as the two met crossing paths in the emergency room they both worked in over half a decade ago. The two humble personalities had decided to dedicate their lives to help others, but life made it possible for them to meet each other as well. Frank’s idea of a proposal was not only creative, but it was also a whirlpool of emotions as he proposed to Maria underwater! The two would promise forever on land at the gorgeous, private Oaks at Heavenly.


Underwater Treasure
While on a beautiful cruise in the Caribbean, Maria discovered a treasure sought by countless generations. Frank had gifted Maria a beach cruise to the clear waters of Puerto Maya, Mexico. The two decided to enjoy a snorkeling venture, just another memory to bring them closer together. As the two soaked up the sun and the mesmerizing underwater sights, Frank exclaimed to have found something underwater. Maria began her descent into the water and found Frank holding a diamond ring he’d brought with him for this exact moment.



Love Out of Water
Of course, the couple had to make their way back to the mainland to wed, and they were happy to have done so because their wedding exceeded all of their expectations! Choosing the venue, Oaks at Heavenly, was a breeze as Maria admits, “I absolutely fell in love with the indoor/outdoor venue. It was just strikingly beautiful!” Of course, she’s not wrong. The oaks offer a magical getaway with elaborate details in Helotes, TX.



The evening was bound to be filled with romance not just because of the Swarvoski Gold Plated Chandelier, striking hill-country views, and homegrown rustic touches the venue provides, but also because Maria and Frank did the wise choice of hiring a thoughtful wedding planner, an amazing cake designer, and a photographer with a great eye! JCraft Events pulled the wonderful wedding together. According to Maria, “Jennifer Craft definitely made the process more enjoyable and provided a professional resource for any questions or concerns.” Creations Cakes designed, and executed, a cake as delicate and beautiful as a garden’s spring bloom. All the evidence of the perfect wedding was captured by Limelight San Antonio, who highlighted every priceless moment.
