Today is the 2nd wedding anniversary of my lovely cousin Laura and her awesome husband Mark. I thought we'd celebrate by reliving their wedding on the blog today! Their wedding was tropical, so think warm thoughts as you peruse further. :) This might help:
In July of 2013 I photographed a wedding down at Sandals Montego Bay in Jamaica and my awesome cousin Laura came along to assist not only in the carrying of my gear, but also in the drinking of pina coladas. At that point I had no idea that I'd be back to Jamaica that same year to photograph HER wedding.
In September of 2013, while on a family vacation, what started as my Aunt Joyce taking a "few photos of the two of them" turned into an engagement session when I commandeered the two of them for engagement photos on the beach at sunset.
Then, in November, we arrived at Sandals Negril two days prior to the wedding. Laura & Mark spent their time leading up to the wedding doing what every bride & groom SHOULD be doing before their wedding - lounging on the beach. In fact, up until two hours before the ceremony, they were still there.
It was the most gloriously relaxed wedding I've ever been to, both as a photographer and as a guest.
A friend of Laura's couldn't make it to the wedding but was there in spirit, in the form of a coconut.
Not big fans of cake, they opted for the tiniest piece of cake I've ever seen.
Laura is also not a huge fan of champagne... :)
The resort held a very cute little reception for everyone involved.
Then we got to play in the water! These are my favorites I think.
They even put their wedding attire back on the next morning for more photos.
Laura & Mark, I love you both, and I'm so happy you found each other! Happy Anniversary!
