Rachel & Nick 

Rachel and Nick’s love story took them to the stunning shores of Aruba, where they tied the knot on May 13th, 2023, at the breathtaking Hyatt Resort. As their chosen photography and videography team, we were honored to capture the magic of their destination wedding from the very beginning.  

Rachel and Nick prepared for their big day in their respective rooms. The attention to detail was evident as we saw beautifully customized invitations and other delightful wedding goodies. Rachel looked like a vision in her exquisite wedding dress, a stunning blend of lace and organza, complemented by elegant shoes adorned with pearls. Her bouquet, a mesmerizing arrangement of white roses, added the perfect touch of sophistication. 

Nick, dressed impeccably in a navy blue suit, and his groomsmen radiated pure excitement as we captured their contagious enthusiasm in the lush gardens of the Hyatt. The anticipation was palpable, and we knew it was going to be a day filled with love and joy.

The talented team at Love Stories by Epic had worked their magic on the wedding coordination and wedding decor, creating an elegantly chic beach ceremony setting. The centerpiece, a circular arch draped in lush greenery and delicate white roses, provided the perfect backdrop for Rachel and Nick to exchange their heartfelt vows.

As Rachel walked down the aisle, there was not a dry eye in sight. Nick’s emotional reaction to seeing his beautiful bride was heartwarming, and it reaffirmed the deep love they shared. 

The post-ceremony celebrations were filled with heartfelt speeches. The mother of the bride imparted wisdom on creating a family legacy, emphasizing the importance of cherishing memories together beyond material possessions. And the best man, drawing from his two years of married experience, shared five valuable pieces of advice: to be each other’s best friend, to resolve conflicts before going to bed, to embrace change, to never give up on each other, and to let go of the little things. 

As their photography and videography team, we felt privileged to capture these touching moments, knowing that they were just the beginning of Rachel and Nick’s extraordinary journey together. They will undoubtedly continue their adventure side by side, exploring the world and creating countless new memories as they embark on this beautiful chapter of their lives together. We wish them all the love and happiness in the world as they navigate this exciting path ahead.

The evening was graced by an unforgettable sunset that bathed the island in warm hues of pink and gold—a moment we were honored to capture through both photography and video.
