Beautiful day at the beach. Hot enough to melt us all... but you wouldn't know it by the smiles of these two lovebirds! This mid-day wedding had a very tropical feel to it. The entire bridal party wore "tropical" colors and the ceremony took place under a gazebo, with the Gulf of Mexico for a back drop just steps from the water.
This is one of my favorite photos... nothing fancy or particularly special about the scene.... or is there? I captured the reflection of Brandie's mother watching her daughter, with a hint of a smile and maybe some nostalgia on her face, as Brandie did a last check of her hair. 
One of the neatest things I had ever seen was the "sand ceremony" just before the final kiss. The bride and groom each had a glass vase filled with different colored sand. As they poured the sand in to a heart shaped glass vase, their colors blended just like their lives were about to. It was a tropical version of lighting the unity candle.
While the ceremony and reception were mid-day, I met up with Brandie and Miguel as the sun went down to capture some fun moments before the sun set. Below are a few of the pictures I took. 
It was a beautiful day indeed!
