Pass-a-Grille, St. Pete Sunset Beach Wedding | Nick and Jason
Nick and Jason’s intimate sunset beach wedding at St. Pete’s Pass-a-Grille, Florida.

Nick & Jason
Nick and Jason were married at St. Pete Beach, Florida. One of our favorite and most popular locations to shoot at. Beach weddings always invoke a sense of tranquility. Their ceremony led the guests to rows of chairs accented ribbon with vibrant flowers. The aisle decorated with rose petals leading to the arch and a small table with glasses of sand.
Nick and Jason treated guests to upbeat, live music played by a saxophone musician. Some of the music included classics, such as “When the Saints Go Marching In,” Louis Armstrong’s “What a Wonderful World/Somewhere Over the Rainbow,” Jason Mraz’s “I’m Yours”. Before guests took their seats, each guest would sign a commemorative plate for Nick and Jason to look back on.
The grooms love for their pastimes was evident while they helped each other with their bow ties, one with sharks and the other with dinosaurs. Guests were seated, and the music transitioned to more romantic songs, such as “At Last,” Katy Perry’s “A Thousand Years,” and John Legend’s “All of Me”.
As the ceremony commenced, Nick and Jason arrived, bare-footed with their trusty dog-bearer. As they walked down to the arch, everyone stood smiling with excitement. During the ceremony, they read their vows, and exchanged their rings. They tied their love with a unity sand ceremony, symbolizing two lives becoming one.
Nick’s Vows: “I, Nick, choose you Jason, as my husband in friendship and in love, in strength and weakness to share the good times and misfortune, in achievement and failure. I will cherish and respect you through all the changes of our lives, forever giving thanks that we found each other.”
Jason’s Vows: “Nick, I take you to be my husband; to have and to hold, from this day forward. I give to you my un-ending love and devotion I promise to be true to you, to cherish you, and to share my thoughts, hopes and dreams with you. I look forward to spending the rest of my life with you, my best friend. I will love you forever.”
Ring Vows: “You are my best friend and everlasting companion. You have brought me the truest happiness I have ever known. I take joy in today in committing my life to yours. With this ring I promise to stand with you as we share this life, and cherish the memories we make together.”
Afterwards, Nick and Jason celebrated with their family and friends with glasses of champagne.
As their ceremony came to a close, Nick and Jason whisked away into the sunset.

Treasure Island Intimate Beach Wedding | St.Pete wedding photographer | Dawn + Dean
Some pics f a wonderful and romantic sunset beach wedding with a beautiful couple who came all the way from Iowa to get married in front the Gulf of Mexico in one of the most beautiful sunsets!!! Check here their beautiful love story and more details about their intimate wedding at the same place where they met!!!
" Dean and I met in the spring of 2013 in St. Petersburg, FL. We were colleagues and maintained a professional relationship during the few months we worked together. It wasn't until we were reassigned to different facilities (I remained in Florida, He moved to the Midwest) that our friendship evolved. We would email each other occasionally checking in to a see how the other was doing with their new job. In one of those emails, I stated that I was going to be stuck at the Chicago airport for 4 hours due to my work travel itinerary. Dean suggested that if I could arrange a longer layover, he would show me around Chicago. So on October 28th we had what turned out to be our first date. We spent the day together as he showed me the sights between flights. I got back on a plane that evening knowing that something had changed in our friendship. We began calling more and more frequently. Dean came back to Florida for a couple of visits and it was at Christmas, we became a couple. We dated long distance for six long months before I took that plunge and moved up the Midwest to be with him in July of 2014. We bought an old house in the town of Bettendorf, Iowa and began to renovate it. From top to bottom, we did all the work ourselves. We worked so incredibly well together. It was amazing. Our chemistry is perfect for one another. Everything felt so right. We joked that we have known each other for 400 years. We belonged together. We knew we were going to marry at some point. So, we sat down in the fall of 2015 to make it official and chose a date in May of 2016. We had a beautiful small wedding with only close friends and family on May 7 2016. We had a gorgeous sunset wedding on the beach in Florida in the town where we met. "
I was super happy and of course honour to be part of such a wonderful and beautiful wedding with Dawn and Dean. The day was super smooth and beautiful moments... here some of my favourites...
