Destination weddings have a special place in my heart. The week was full of big laughs, some sunburns, families joining together, mucho tequila and it was the perfect way to celebrate Karley and Chad and their love for each other
There is something extra special about destination weddings. I think it is the connection of everyone traveling so far to get there and being together for the whole week. Everyday at the pool they had a section together and they were all laughing and drinking together! Their wedding celebration was held at the Grand Sunset Princess. It was absolutely stunning. If you have ever been you will know this resort is absolutely huge. The minute we showed up I was overwhelmed with ideas on photo locations. It was just perfect.
My day started out with breakfast with the girls. After breakfast was over, I headed back to my room to acclimatize my gear. If you don’t you will end up with “foggy” out of focus images. There was so much excitement leading up to the wedding. As the girls were at the salon getting their hair and makeup done, the guys were chilling in the pool.
They said their vows to each other in front of beautiful turquoise waters surrounded by family and friends. It was such a touching ceremony and I know that Chad’s parent’s were there watching from above beaming with pride and happiness, as their son promised forever to the love of his life. After the ceremony everyone celebrated with a glass of bubbly.
After the portraits were done, we all enjoyed a lovely meal and then headed down to the beach for a rockin party. However, because it is “turtle” season, the party had to shut down by 10:00. Although this wasn’t a problem because everyone headed back to the Sports Bar to watch the Oilers vs Ducks playoff game. Can it get any better?? It was the perfect way to end a perfect wedding.
Chad and Karley, thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving me the privileged to document one of the happiest days of your life and for inviting me to join your family and friends in a week full of laughter and love. I can’t wait to see everyone again in July!
