We have to say, we feel pretty darn lucky that we got to spend last Saturday with such a special and fun-loving couple on their wedding day. Maria + Andrew are beautiful both inside and out and their families and friends were excited, full of life, and genuinely and passionately energetic throughout the day, which made our job a blast. 🙂

SO many fantastic team members to thank for all of their hard work, but on this brief sneak peek post I’ll limit it to just a few before dropping down into some of my favorites from the very special day. Jamie Billig and her AMAZING crew of girls from Confetti Events outdid themselves and their organization and professionalism was next to none; the staff at the Sandpearl Resort was on-point and I don’t think I saw one glass empty all the time we were at the reception there; Alex Karas of Voila Cinematic, always a pleasure collaborating creatively with you and your crew; and Artistry Designs Group for their exquisite floral arrangements and decor. As I said there are SO many more, so watch the blog during the next few weeks for the rest of our favorites from their wedding day. Until then, feast your eyes on just a few of what we consider the crème de la crème from their day 🙂

The wedding party encircled the bride and groom mid-reception and fired their confetti cannons all over and around Maria + Andrew. INCREDIBLE. 🙂

Soft colors and textures came together beautifully to create an unmistakably elegant theme for the day. And hey, Valentino wedding shoes never hurt that cause either. 🙂

Maria wore her mothers wedding gown, modified, from 30 years earlier. She looked absolutely exquisite in it, and what a particularly special sight for her mother and father.

SUCH sweet flower girls. Loved their beautiful floral crowns!

The very same church where BOTH Maria and Andrew’s parents had been married years before. Stunning artwork and dome paintings.

The happy couple immediately after the ceremony! 🙂

Gorgeous bridesmaids and dresses–seriously just WOW. They were so much fun too! Could have shot them for a full hour if we had had time. 🙂 😉

The groomsmen didn’t look too shabby either. Suspenders and bow-ties abounded.

The stunning couple…during bride and groom portraits.

They were absolutely perfect together. And the weather and light made it all come together. What an awesome day.

Meanwhile guests enjoyed sunset cocktails at the Sandpearl Resort on their Gulf Lawn.

Maria + Andrew entered mid-cocktail hour and said a few hellos before we took them out again for a few more sunset photos before heading up to the reception for the rest of the evening. Again, PERFECT weather. 🙂

I mean, really….THE perfect couple.

S-T-U-N-N-I-N-G details were created in part by Artisty Designs Group and their crew, and were organized and assisted by many other fantastic vendors. Truly a sight to see. The room was wall-to-wall florals and candles. Just wow. And a quick shout out to our fantastic photographers Marc, Emily and Conny for their sensational work on these details while I was out with the bride and groom on the beach! 🙂

The first dance. One of my personal favorite parts of the wedding day to document.

And one final HUGE congratulations to the beautiful and incredible Maria + Andrew! We hope you are enjoying your exotic honeymoon and have a few minutes to see just a few of our favorites from your amazing day!
