Lindsay & Ted | 5.9.2012
I received the sweetest email from Lindsay and Ted, shortly after they returned home from their wedd-cation, thanking me for their "perfect in every way" wedding. *blushing* Then, they went one step further and mailed me a hand-written thank you card. I was overwhelmed! It's so rare to receive anything written by hand these days. I have to say, my favorite part of this wedding was when Lindsay and Ted took off their wedding attire and ran into the water. Awesome!

Brandee & Chris | 5.25.2012
What a story these two have. They met in the 2nd grade and had their first couple's skate song to the ever popular Def Leppard. In high school, she wrote her phone number on a sidewalk so he could call her and ask her out. Fast forward a couple of decades and go back to the same sidewalk. THIS is where Chris asked Brandee to marry him. After making the long journey from Oklahoma to St. Thomas, it was a short limo ride from their resort to Magens Bay Beach. Brandee knew what she wanted and one very important aspect was the "circle of trust" (think 'Meet the Parents' minus the crazy father-in-law and intense pool volleyball). I managed to snap a few shots with my iPhone. Once we get the professional photos, I'll update!
Congratulations to one of the most fun couples I've had the pleasure of working with!

Michele & Kevin | 4.25.2012
Michele and Kevin arrived to St. Thomas, with their entourage, aboard the Freedom of the Seas. In her search for a wedding planner with a little more, er, flexibility, her sister found Weddings the Island Way on-line and we sure are glad she did. The whole group arrived in a limousine to the Garden Terrace and were ready and raring to go. I had the pleasure of being the coordinator and surprising the groom with his favorite cocktail, which Michele sneakily mailed to us. Best. Wife. Ever.

Quiet day at Magens Bay...
I've been working with Ashley and Jerad for almost a year now so you can imagine my excitement in finally meeting them. The groom looked dapper in a khaki suit/white shirt/navy blue tie. The bride, stunning in white. Forecast called for 70% chance of showers. Wedding was 100% free of rain.
