Cayman Islands Real Wedding :: Josephine and Stephen

I’ve been browsing through some “blasts from the past” and came across this wedding I posted a long, long time ago (about a year and a half ago).  I just love it–I’ve always loved it.  The colors, the opulence and the gorgeous couple–I felt the need to share with you again!  Hope you enjoy and have a great weekend!!

First, the couple…HELLO magazine models (well, actually the bride is).  Second, the colors–WOW is really all I can say about that…just too beautiful! 

Let’s get you started with some of this eye candy by Aaron Rebarchek :: 

Isn’t that aisle just beautiful?  I told you it was different than what we usually show here!

Josephine’s favorite design element was the bridesmaid bouquets.  Check them out below!  Lime green mums with teal ostrich feathers against the bright purple dress–again, I say, WOW!  It’s not often that you see weddings with this amount of color and I love it!

No detail was left unnoticed at the reception.  Lush linens, peacock feathers. chandeliers, candelabra and more.  Each of the tables were named after famous couples from history as opposed to the standard table numbers.

Cayman Islands Real Wedding :: Rosani and Jerome

Welcome to today’s real wedding of Rosani and Jerome!  I absolutely loved this pink affair and when I say every detail was carefully thought out, I mean EVERY detail!  This wedding is your classic fairy tale wedding from the beautiful gown to the amazing head table.  Combined with fantastic lighting, crystals and amazing floral design, you can’t get much better than this wedding!

Rosani and Jerome are from Cayman, but when they got engaged they started planning a destination wedding in Hawaii.  They stopped those plans and “returned” to Cayman for two reasons…First, ALL of their friends and family could be there to support and celebrate with them.  Second, they knew they could not find a location more beautiful than Cayman!!  (True, true!)

Oh, the crystals, the flowers, the beautiful pink lighting…I just can’t get enough of it!!!  Even the cake cutter was bling’d out!!

Cayman Islands Real Wedding :: Wedding Wednesday!

Happy Wedding Wednesday!  Hope your week is going well and you’re looking forward to the wedding goodness today.  I commonly receive emails and comments asking me to feature more simple weddings and today I’m happy to oblige! 

This wedding was held recently on a private beach in the South Sound area of the island.  The couple and guests stayed on the East End of the island and made the “journey” into town for the ceremony and dinner at the Ritz Carlton Grand Cayman.  The day was beautiful, as you can see by the photos and the couple couldn’t be happier!!

Cayman Islands Real Wedding :: Nadia and Tony, The Party

After the vows had been said, the speeches had been made and the cake had been cut, this couple and their guests danced the night away!!!  Welcomed to their first dance in a sea of sparklers, the couple headed back down to the patio at the Cracked Conch.  After dancing for the first time as husband and wife, Nolly took the floor!  What a hit she was! 

The guests really got into it, raided the fun dress trunk and had a ball in the smile booth!  Everyone had a great time and danced the night away!!!

Cayman Islands Real Wedding :: Rhian and Matt, Part 2

We hope you enjoyed Part 1 of Rhian and Matt’s wedding yesterday.  As promised, today we are sharing with you the reception details…there are a few and they are all fab! 

Well, this is technically a ceremony detail, but don’t you love these programs?  A friend of the bride designed them for the couple and I thought they were just beautiful!!

The tables were set up as two long kings banquets with a navy blue runner down the middle.  Down the center of the runner were arrangements of white football mums and  hot pink hydrangea.  These perfectly complemented the hot pink napkins and the decor coordinated menus at each place setting.

The wedding party had some fun taking shots with these umbrellas–such a perfect simple accessory for a few photos!

Instead of a guest book, the couple had everyone write out Cayman Islands post cards.  These will be mailed to them next year for their one year anniversary.  I LOVE this idea!  What a wonderful treat to look forward too!

Everything was color coordinated for this wedding–down to the flip flops most used later on in the night!  After a long day in stilettos, who wouldn’t want some dancing shoes??

All in all, a wonderful day!  Congratulations Rhian and Matt!!!

Cayman Islands Real Wedding :: Sheenah and David, Part 2

We’re back and about to knock your socks off…I mentioned earlier that the reception color palate was a mixture of chocolate brown, ice blue and lots of bling…soooo, here you go!

The couple’s favorite design element was the beautiful lighting throught the room.  I don’t know if I could personally choose a “favorite” element…there are too many to choose from!   Their words to describe the day are magical, memorable and beautiful.  Agreed, agreed and agreed!

One thing Sheenah did share with me was that she promised herself she was going to stay calm and enjoy the day.  In doing so, she not only enjoyed her day but soaked in and remembered all of the details and elements.  I think that is a fabulous piece of advice for all of you brides out there…stay calm and enjoy!!
