Wedding in paradise - Saskatoon photographers

First, I should give you a heads up, this is probably the biggest blog post we've ever made.  The story of the day was just too good to leave out any images, with the exception of the reception, which were just your typical speech/dance shots:).  I had a hard time narrowing it down the day this much, there were just so many great images to choose from.  

Back in February, my husband and I jumped on a plane and headed south to the Barcelo resort in the beautiful the Mayan Riviera, to photograph the wedding of a wonderful couple.  I can't say enough great things about this couple, their family, and their friends.  They really made us feel so welcome and we fit in perfectly. 

The day of the wedding, we started off taking some shots of the guys getting ready, then went off to see the bride.  The best man came with me to deliver the gift from the groom to the bride which was  diamond necklace.  It was beautiful!  Once the bride was ready to go, her and I headed downstairs to meet up with the groom.  We did the reveal in a private setting in the courtyard, just down from our rooms.  I love getting that first look in a more intimate private setting.  It went off without a hitch.

The wedding party met up with us soon after where we battled the hot sun, but had sooo much fun.  They were a hoot!  The ceremony was located on a more private beach area, with rocks in the background.  It was nice to not have people in speedo's in the background of the ceremony pictures or kids splashing around in the water behind them.  It was such a beautiful, private ceremony.  

We got a quick group shot of all the attendees of the wedding, then we stole the couple to get some romantic couple shots.  The sun had started to set, the clouds rolled in, and the lighting was perfect!  It's a good thing the resort was so beautiful, because when it started to sprinkle, we headed inside and used the beautiful setting of the lobby's for the backdrop.  They ended up with a great variety of images.

It ended up being such a perfect day!  Thanks so much for bringing us along to capture your special day!!!
