An intimate engagement party in Puerto Rico became a blockbuster concert when three Latin music legends–Enrique Iglesias, Ricky Martin, and Marc Anthony-took the stage together for a private performance.
A Night of Music and Celebration
The celebration unfolded at the historic Fairmont El San Juan Hotel, where hundreds of guests gathered to honor Texas attorney Thomas J. Henry and interventional breast imaging radiologist Dr. Elena Alvarez Westwood.
The couple chose Puerto Rico for its personal significance.
> “We met in Puerto Rico, and this has been our special place,” Alvarez Westwood told News Of Los Angeles. “We felt that it was most appropriate to share our engagement party here with our family and friends.”
Lavish Details and Surprise Performances
Guests arrived to a striking Earth Harp performance, followed by a lavish cocktail reception featuring:
- Ice sculptures
- 35 musicians from the Philharmonic Orchestra of Puerto Rico
- An unplugged experience to encourage guest engagement
As the night progressed, Iglesias (50), Martin (54), and Anthony (57) delivered surprise live performances, transforming the party into a private concert.
> “I have known Ricky for a very long time, so having him sing happy birthday to me was very special,” Alvarez Westwood said. “Being able to share this with Tom, our family and friends was a very warm experience I will never forget.”
Entertainment Extravaganza
The evening continued with:
- A drone show choreographed to music
- A fireworks display
- DJs turning the event into a dance party that lasted into the early hours
Commitment to Giving Back
Beyond the glamour, the couple emphasized their shared commitment to philanthropy.
Alvarez Westwood has long supported early breast cancer diagnosis and treatment initiatives. The couple recently co-chaired the American Cancer Society Puerto Rico Gala and plan to continue supporting philanthropic efforts both locally and nationally.
Wedding Plans Remain Private
While the engagement party was grand, the couple intends to keep their wedding intimate.
> “Our wedding will definitely be an intimate experience, and something we want to ensure is kept private,” Alvarez Westwood said. “It is safe to assume that we will have a smaller and more intimate wedding than our engagement party.”
