We walked up to the exact spot where Courtney and Adam said their I Do’s the day before… and in that moment I knew we had to capture the below photo… in between the two palm trees where they officially became husband and wife! Thank you for putting so much trust in us and for not hating us for getting you both up so early in the morning! The beautiful colors coming from the sunrise were absolutely incredible! And girlfriend, with only a few hours of sleep, you look as stunning and mermaid-like as ever! …and then this happened! haha! Nothing quite like a little ocean lovin’ Courtney + Adam, there truly are no words to thank you enough for bringing us along on this fabulous journey! We’re so grateful to have witnessed and captured such memorable moments for you to treasure for a lifetime! We love you both! <3
Courtney + Adam chose to have their destination wedding celebration at the beautiful Hard Rock Hotel + Casino in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. From the beautiful resort, to the wonderfully attentive staff, to the weather, everything was purely perfect and fabulously romantic!
The beautiful terrace where their wedding reception would be held in just 3 days… The cutest Welcome Bag was delivered to our room! It was so wonderful getting to meet, get to know, and hang out with so many of their friends and family at the pool!The most amazing bridal party all dressed up for the rehearsal! <3 The details at their rehearsal/welcome dinner were so simply beautiful!The Sax Pool was the perfect spot to start celebrating! The future Mr + Mrs! Those heels! Ekkkkk! It is now the morning of Saturday, April 25th … the day that Courtney + Adam are getting MARRIED!!!!! All of the ladies ready to head to the salon!! We stayed behind for a little while to capture all of Courtney’s beautiful details! Courtney’s dress was SO beautiful and SO perfect for their beach wedding! The perfect little orchid to make Courtney’s hair just that much more perfect! Courtney’s best friend Gina was so attentive and such a wonderful Maid of Honor!
She herself will make a gorgeous bride when she ties the knot next year!! Adam wrote Courtney a message in a bottle for her to read before she saw him for the first time that day… As I was with Courtney and the ladies, Ryan was in the next building over hanging with Adam and his guys… On her way to see her man… Butterflies growing! He was so excited to see her! Love these two!! They had the most perfect day you could ever ask for! Seriously girl?! Gorgeous! The most perfect yellow building for her yellow wedding! The beautiful location where Adam and Courtney became husband and wife… White sandy beaches, blue water, palm trees… Doesn’t get much better than this! I may or may not have teared up as well… ;) Congratulations Mr + Mrs Kucinski!! Their reception was held on the Eclipse Terrace – the focal point of the entire resort! Captured the sunset riiiiight before it dipped behind the hotel! <3 Wide shot of their reception from across the bridge! The night was SO.MUCH.FUN! Only in the Caribbean do they bring out a tray of shots during the song SHOTS! Love it!We could not have asked to be a part of such an amazing wedding! Thank you so much for including us and making us feel like one of your guests and friends! It was perfection! The rings! Gah! Yep… during their last song, I waited for it… and it happened! <3 Congratulations again Courtney + Adam!! Wishing you so much love and happiness forever and always!! <3 xo
Fast forward to last week, Brittany + Nate were in Punta Cana for her sister Courtney’s destination wedding – which of course would be the perfect time to do a trash the dress! Brittany had reached out a few months ago, since I was also traveling to capture her sisters wedding, to also capture their trash the dress! How could I say no to that?! So, she brought her dress out with her and we had an amazing time wandering around the Hard Rock property and then ending our time on the beach and in the ocean! Enjoy the sneak peek! <3 xo We may have had a little fun in the sprinklers on our way to the beach! These two are so adorable together! Mmmmmm the glow of a perfect sunset! Brittany + Nate, we had so much fun with you both! Thank you so much for asking us to capture such an awesome session for you!! xo
