Michael and I arrived on the wedding day with 12 clear bubble umbrellas ready for the entire bridal party but were hoping for the best! We hoped the rain would dissipate and the sun would make an appearance! The Florida sun didn’t show up and the forecast continued to predict there was 100% chance of rain every twenty minutes… but that didn’t happen. We rearranged the entire wedding day schedule with a bride and groom first look and captured all of the bridal party and bride and groom portraits in ONLY one hour! We finished just in time before it started pouring rain. My heart sank for Maggie because I knew how much she didn’t want it to rain . They love the tropical decor and beach scenery at Hotel Zamora on the rooftop but they had to move the reception inside due to the forecast. Even though their wedding was rainy and misty, it couldn’t have been more vibrant, warm and full of joy! Maggie and Mark are such a sweet couple. You could feel how happy they are to be together. I loved watching the way Mark looked at Maggie smiling the biggest smile during the first look and throughout the day. Their best friends and family in the bridal party were such a joy to be around even though we were taking photos in the misty rain. I feel so honored to have been a part of their day!! Michael and I loved meeting their family and friends and celebrating their love by the sea! I hope you all enjoy some of my favorites!
