St. Petersburg Beach Wedding Photography at Bilmar Beach Resort

December 18, 2018

Lauren and Justin got married Saturday at the Bilmar Beach Resort on Treasure Island, after they journeyed to Florida from Washington state.  They met in college at Florida State University and moved to the other coast for Justin’s job and for Lauren to work on her PhD!  They are self proclaimed home-bodies, like to go hiking, and enjoy just about anything outdoors as long as they are together to experience it!  I have never met two people who compliment each other more- they truly were made for each other!  The couple chose to have a First Look, allowing them to get out any nerves before the wedding ceremony and of course spend more time with their family and friends at the cocktail hour before the most spectacular Florida sunset.  While it had stormed the day before the wedding (and even rained a bit the morning of), both the bride and groom were calm, cool, and collected (and as their wedding photographer I knew we had it made because sunsets after a storm are the BEST!).  Lauren’s wedding dress was custom made by her mom’s friend and was so perfect for her- I love when couples add such special touches….just check out the characters on their wedding cake and the beautiful chuppah (the Jewish canopy) that they got married under!  Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness and health, Lauren and Justin.  Mazel Tov! xo

St. Petersburg Don CeSar Beach Wedding for Joan and Chris

April 25, 2017

What a magical day for Joan and Chris at their St. Petersburg, waterfront wedding at The Don CeSar. The two met in college and they are both smart cookies; Chris is a cardiologist and Joan is a pharmacist. They currently live in Gainesville, but dreamed of having a beautiful, beach wedding and chose St. Pete for their location. We were very excited to hear their decision of choosing The Don CeSar for their location; it is a stunning waterfront backdrop for weddings.

First of all, Joan and Chris were both surrounded by a bunch of loved ones for their big day, specially their bridal party of 22 people! With so many close friends, they both knew they needed them all by their sides to take part in the celebration and be the best support team. We started the afternoon with Joan and all of her lovely bridesmaids as they got all glammed up. The girls were so excited to see Joan put on her wedding dress and it was so sweet to see Joan’s mom shed some happy tears watching her little girl become a bride. Joan is one of the sweetest and most genuine brides; she is so appreciative and we loved capturing all of her beauty and happiness.  Being around her truly makes you want to be a better person.  After hanging with the girls, we visited the guys and took some portraits; of course they were cutting up, helping calm Chris’s nerves before the first look.

Joan and Chris were so excited to take part in a first look before their ceremony; a first look serves as a great way to alleviate some nerves and allows the couple to have a special moment alone before the wedding. Joan was an absolutely stunning bride, so Chris’s jaw hit the floor when he turned to see her. The two smiled and giggled and we heard Chris say, “I want to kiss you, but is there some tradition that I can’t?” Luckily we told them there’s no tradition that says you can’t kiss before the ceremony, so the two managed to squeeze in some much wanted smooches.

Their waterfront, beach ceremony was full of their closest friends and family. The two exchanged their vows and became husband and wife, officially. We had the most amazing weather day that day and also were blessed with a gorgeous, Florida sunset. After the ceremony celebration, the party continued at their reception that featured tall, ivory and pink floral centerpieces, a huge sweets table, and the Bay Kings Band that had everyone up and dancing the night away. It was such a romantic and special day; we truly adore Joan and Chris and feel so honored they picked us to capture their memories. We wish them lifetime of love and happiness and are excited to watch them grow as a couple and as a family!
