Cayman Islands Real Wedding :: Kacy and Brett, Part 2

We’re back with more from Kacy and Brett’s Seven Mile Beach wedding.  After the nuptials on the beach, the couple and their guests enjoyed a fabulous meal from Luca at Caribbean Club.   Check out the fun cake…that looks YUMMY to me!!

The couple said the most memorable moment of the day was their first dance.  They had both been looking forward to this part of the evening so much that when they were dancing, they forgot everyone else around them.  Very romantic!

Cayman Islands Real Wedding :: Kacy and Brett

When I saw the photographs the first thing that struck me about this couple was how comfortable they looked with each other.  Come to find out they decided to get married after only dating three weeks!!  Love at first sight, I think so!

Kacy’s family had been vacationing in Grand Cayman for over 20 years so when it came time to choose a location for the wedding, it was easy.  The beauty of the beach, the ease of travel and the meaning for the couple all made Grand Cayman the perfect destination for their wedding.

The ceremony was held on Seven Mile Beach at the Caribbean Club and featured some gorgeous orange with elements of the sea.  The canopy with starfish and sand dollars was the perfect frame for these two.

Come back later for more on this “meant to be” couple!!

Cayman Islands Real Wedding :: Magda and Kiril

Happy Monday!!  Hope you all had a nice weekend!  I’m excited to share this wedding with you today because it’s our first time showing this venue and it is one of my favorites! 

The venue is a private villa on Seven Mile Beach called Coral Reef House.  It’s a beautiful five bedroom villa with an equally amazing stretch of beach and the perfect location for a wedding–small or large.  This lovely couple actually live in Grand Cayman and wanted someplace different for their wedding which is why they choose the Coral Reef.

Coordinated and designed by Celebrations, this couple kept natural with natural.  The bamboo seating for the ceremony as well as the woven lounge furniture really complimented the outdoor setting of the ceremony and reception.

Each guest received a thatch fan to keep cool and the couple stood under a natural bamboo canopy to exchange their vows.  The flowers were minimal, yet BEAUTIFUL and were, in fact, the bride’s favorite part of the design. 

After the ceremony, the guests enjoyed a lovely dinner under the stars and danced the night away!!!   Oh, by the way, come back Thursday for this couple’s AMAZING trash the dress session…you don’t want to miss–it’s too gorgeous!

Cayman Islands Event Designer :: Celebrations

I know you know them, but I wanted to make sure you know all that they do…and event design is just one more thing Celebrations can do for you.  In my 10 years living in Cayman, I have seen this team design some spectacular weddings and events! 

First, let me clear something up…do not be mistaken, design is not just which flowers you’re going to use or what color palette you have chosen.  It extends way beyond the physical elements of your event and when done properly, creates something magical.  Real designers consider all five senses and look at the event and wedding as a whole piece.  From there, they get down to the details, but they do not stop simply at what looks good. 

Anyway, moving on…You have seen quite a few events styled by Celebrations and I can guarantee you will see many more.  Celebrations was given the huge task of designing the entire Engage!10 conference.  Here are a few photos from the closing night gala…

Cayman Islands Real Wedding :: Trish and Michael

We’re back this week after a fantastic week at Engage!10.  Let me tell you, we’re rejuvinated, remotivated and excited for some changes we are going to be making to make your experience at Crystal Blue more meaningful and exciting!!!

Today, we are sharing Trish and Michael’s wedding with you.  Melissa Wolfe did a great job at capturing all of the details of this fab wedding and Trish and Michael were kind enough to share with us their thoughts and the story behind the couple!!

I always wonder why people choose Cayman as their destination….here’s what the couple said:

I wanted a Caribbean island with white sand and clear blue water.  I knew (only from one visit via a cruise ship, a lot of pictures, and word of mouth) that Seven Mile beach offered that.  Compared to many islands, travel was easier for our 24 guests that came from 7 different states.  We also wanted an English speaking island/country where the marriage ceremony would actually be legal.  I don’t think we could have been happier with the choice of any other island.

(I think it was a perfect choice, too!!)

The couple exchanged vows on Seven Mile Beach, at the Westin Casuarina Resort and Spa.  After the sunset, they enjoyed an evening of dinner and dancing beachside!

The bride hand stamped all of her stationery with the palm tree logo she found.  This added a beachy look to the day while keeping the elements classy and coordinated.  They chose pink to compliment the aqua color (my fav!) which made a beautiful color combination. 

The cake was made by the fantastic pastry chef at the Westin and decorated with local bougainvillea. 

All in all, it was a great night!  The group danced the night away under the stars and the bride even got to play DJ for a while!  Congratulations to you both and thank you for allowing us to share your wedding!

Cayman Islands Real Wedding :: Judith and Pete

I came across this wedding on David Wolfe’s blog the other day.  Everyone in the photos just seemed like they were having the BEST time and I loved the elegant look of all of the details. 

The couple were married at the Ritz Carlton on Seven Mile Beach in Grand Cayman.  The team at the Ritz Carlton joined up with Celebrations to pull off this beautiful affair!

After the sunset ceremony, the couple and their guests dined poolside under the stars and danced the night away to the musical stylings of Suite Elite!

Cayman Islands Real Wedding :: Heather and Ryan

I have been dying to post this wedding for so many reasons.  Could it be the beautiful couple?  Yes.  The gorgeous decor?  Yes.  Three different dresses?  Yes.  Basically, it’s everything!!!  I hope you enjoy!

This lovely couple chose Cayman for their destination wedding after many years of visiting Grand Cayman as a family.  The Bride’s family are regular visitors to Cayman and introduced the groom to this amazing island just a few years ago.  He fell in love with it just as quickly as she did, so when it came time to get married, they just knew. 

The couple chose the Ritz Carlton, Grand Cayman for their wedding location.  Seven Mile Beach was the backdrop for their ceremony, following on to the Grand Terrace for the dinner and the Grand Ballroom for the dancing.  All of their guests wore white which further illustrated their love and support for the happy couple.

No detail was left to chance and special touches were everywhere.  Above, the cake topper from the Bride’s parent’s wedding was on display next to the guest book-scrapbook.  The place settings were complete with a personalized, letterpress menu for each guest.

During dinner, the guests were entertained by fabulous band, Bona Fide then worked their way into the South Beach themed ballroom to dance the night away!

Cayman Islands Real Wedding :: Natalie and Matthew

Hi everyone!  Sorry for the quietness yesterday…was feeling very under the weather and had to get some rest.  Back today, though and have a fantastic real wedding of Natalie and Matthew! 

The colors of the wedding were sea glass inspired light green and blue and no detail was left to chance.  Even the bride’s beautiful necklace was coordinated with the sea colors. 

When speaking with Natalie, she told me the color palate inspired everything–from flowers to decor and even the guest’s attire.  To keep in line with the themed color palate, they had touches of starfish to complete the beach look.

For the ceremony, the couple enjoyed the music of Kate Allenger of Cayman Violin and also had a sand ceremony to illustrate their unity.   The reception was around the pool area at the Westin–absolutely beautiful.  Tables were dressed with blue orchids, green napkins and starfish.  Even the cupcake tower was appropriately themed.

As the sun set over the horizon, the couple danced their first dance…can you think of anything more romantic??

Cayman Islands Real Wedding :: Ashley and Andrew

Today’s wedding is choc-o-block with gorgeous detail and beautiful colors!  Espresso Brown, Lime Green and a splash of burnt orange really worked for the decor–and it doesn’t hurt that the couple is absolutely stunning!! 

The ceremony took place on Seven Mile Beach with the reception at the Wharf Restaurant.  Celebrations did another beautiful job with the decor and flowers–I just love those roses!!

The couple looked after every detail from coordinating menus and programs to even the cute birdcage card holder for their well wishes.  The tables were dressed with coordinating linens and napkins and no detail was left without thought.

Thank you, Ashley and Andrew for sharing your day with us!
