Hotel Zamora, St.Pete beach wedding day | Jessica & Michael

---

It was strikingly frigid and the wind was monstrous on this December afternoon, but that did not put a halt on this couple's beautiful beach wedding photo session. Jessica and Michael (originally from Chicago) bared the weather rather well, and as a result this sweet couple produced eye catching photos. The passion in their eyes and the beautiful smiles on their faces made this session a glorious one. 

The bride wore an elegant white dress equipped with a thread lace top design with an open back look, parted by a bedazzling rhinestone ribbon wedding belt, and finished with an extricate satin train. The groom strutted two different fashionable accoutrements for this special occasion. The beach accoutrement was composed of a white dress shirt, around the neck lay a navy blue bowtie with a small blue and purple flower design, a white boutonniere pinned to his shirt, light blue-gray suspenders connected the outfit together, and khaki pants finished the appearance. For the grooms second attire, he wore a classic black suit with a white dress shirt, and a black bowtie with a small gray and blue design to add flair to this look. 

On the beach, white chairs were lined up, rapped in bright teal ribbons, awaiting the guests. Ahead of the seats stood a post modern arbor with teal curtains on the front and white ones on the sides. The header and tiebacks consisted of white floral decoration. The tiebacks also featured white starfish. Inside at the Zamora hotel, the tables were covered with white tablecloth, the center pieces (a candle holding lamp with a tan starfish attached to it, surrounded by beach shells, and small silver candle holders) and plates laid on a teal satin cloth, silver utensils and glass cups for each guest. The cake was from a local publix bakery and to make it special the couple had their own topper of two bears (one bride and one groom) with a heart that had 'Mr. & Mrs." on it. They had a saxophone player named Stacey Knights, who played on the beach and at the hotel   

They are forever devoted to one another; forever best friends; lovers to the end. Their vows said it all, (especially their ring vows, they were the sugar on top). Their ring vows to each other are everlasting words that touch every heart:

"This ring is a token of my love. I marry you with this ring, with all that I have and all that I am."

Jamaica Destination Wedding | Marisa & André Wedding

It all began in London, where these two traveling love birds flew into each other. André is from Jamaica and Marisa was born in Germany. They both lived in Canada at some point, but they were destined to meet in U.K. Since they travel extensively and have lived in so many countries, they have friends from all over the world. There were many factors that played into the final decision of choosing Jamaica to be the destination for their wedding. It is an exotic, hard to find, and such an aesthetic place for a wedding. Which was exactly what Marisa was hoping for, despite the fact that it was out of their home country and was difficult for some friends and family to reach. It is a place for relaxation and enjoyment, she wanted her guests to enjoy her wedding and have time for a mini vacation at the same time. They chose the Hyatt Ziva/Zilara Hotel because "it is a nice and well deserved placed", according to Marisa and André. 

This extraordinary wedding was dazzled with different shades of blue, purple, and pink with the occasional red, silver, grey, gold, and prominent white. The bride's beautiful open back dress had gorgeous designs, a nude effect created by translucent fabrics on the back, and was bedazzled with shimmering beads to emphasise the design on the torso dress piece from Lisa's Bridal Salon - Allure Bridals. The shoes had tiny, twinkling, tailored rhinestones and beads intricately designed by ALDO. The groom's apparel was an exquisite pacific blue suit from Moss Bros., a navy blue tie, and glossy leather shoes. The bride's maids sported lavishing, light-lavender dresses while the groomsmen donned a grey suit with pearly white ties accented with a white flower on the left side.

The Lange Farm Wedding | Tampa wedding photographer | Charity & Steven

It was a gorgeous day at the Lange Farm. The sun and the moon greeted each other kindly as these two amazing individuals were brought together by the power of love and commitment. It began with a delightful photoshoot of the bride getting ready for her big day. Her dress was part lace and part organza from David's Bridal boutique. The bride wanted to make it a very special day for the three beautiful boys in her life, so they got a picture of them all wearing the same navy blue converse (as seen below). It was a representation of their undying connection and how she canonizes them. The navy blue color of the sneakers correlated with the bride's maid's dresses and the groom's men's tuxes. 

After the getting ready pictures , the ceremony started. The setup and decoration under the big tree was amazing, romantic and soft music made the mood something really special. Steven's dad memory chair was at the very first road of chairs. The ceremony was officiated by Steven's mom, it was a very nice and special way to celebrate this marriage. They had a beautiful sand ceremony with their boys and during the exchange of vows, Charity left some tears of happiness fell in her face. They are the perfect match and sealed their love with a very romantic and deep kiss during the sunset.

The reception was in the farm, outdoors for a very nice wedding evening with this couple. The decoration was stunning with clue tones. The weather was perfect and of course, every single person had a blast dancing and singing during the time they had.
