This past Saturday I photographed my new friends Chuck and Nicole. It was such a beautiful May first with blue sky and classic warm weather! It was a really different combination of wedding Ceremony and Reception as the Reception was held at the stunning Dolphin Bay Resort in Shell Beach which had the luxurious and high end feel and the reception followed at the rustic and stylized Barn at the S3 Ranch. The Barn was such a beautiful place to have reception with the wide open doors and the fabulous open ceiling and floor plan! It was such a nice back drop with its fun and funky ambiance which was increased exponentially by Zack from Kramer Entertainment & Lighting who projected the stary night on the ceiling and lit all the barns special decor items! My favorite part of the barn was the grand Elk heads lining the walls (at least I think they are elk) :) especially the one over the bar. Corrine from Panacea Event Floral Design really accompanied the bar well by providing beautiful glass hurricanes with white cymbidiums and also framed the beautiful bride and bridesmaids with simple but beautiful bouquets. The bride’s bouquet was made of black beauty roses, black parrot tulips and calla lilies and the bridesmaids of two tone roses and fern curls. Stunning work Corrine as always! The style of this reception was all about fun from the cute “I love my husband” pins they wore to the classic Daiquiri Whacker Gas Powered Blender that was brought to the head table for easy blending! :) What a fun time!! Congrats Chuck and Nicole and I hope you are having a blast in Greece!
