Vikki and Ryan made the trip from San Diego, California to say their vows on the shores of Aruba, and every part of their day reflected who they are—grounded, graceful, and totally in sync. Vikki, a former professional dancer, carried herself with effortless elegance, and Ryan matched her energy with a calming presence that grounded the day. 


They started their wedding with a quiet first look, just the two of them, before stepping into the celebration. The ceremony took place on the beach at the Barceló Aruba Hotel, framed by palm trees and a soft ocean breeze. Their vows were handwritten and heartfelt, filled with emotion, honesty, and humor. Every word felt genuine. 


Vikki wore a strapless gown with a sweetheart neckline and lace appliqués, holding a bouquet of white roses and greenery. Her bridesmaids stood beside her in flowing mint dresses, each carrying bouquets that complemented the bride. Ryan wore a beige suit with a crisp white shirt and boutonnière. Together they looked natural, comfortable, and entirely themselves. 

The setup was tropical and romantic—white draping, clean lines, and floral accents that added just enough without distracting from the view. Everything came together under the Caribbean sky, which gave them a soft sunset as the day turned into evening. 


Before the night began, we slipped away with the couple for a few quiet portraits on the pier. The light was golden, the water calm, and the moment intimate—just the two of them, taking in the day before the celebration continued. 

We were honored to capture this day through both photography and video—moments full of love and meaning. If you’re dreaming of a destination wedding that feels intimate, warm, and true to you, Aruba just might be the place, and we’d love to help you tell your story, too.

Sara & Sal’s story started in Ocean City, Maryland, where a chance encounter turned into something lasting. He saw her walk out of a bathroom and nearly broke his neck doing a double take. Years later, they got engaged in Turks & Caicos—continuing their pattern of unforgettable beach moments. Their birthdays are just a day apart, which they say makes them basically the same person. And on their wedding day in Aruba, that connection showed in every moment. 


Sara wore a sleek satin dress with a structured sweetheart neckline and a front slit that caught the breeze perfectly on the beach. Her embroidered veil moved with her as she walked down the aisle, and her bouquet—a soft blend of white roses, hydrangeas, and eucalyptus—tied it all together. Sal wore a light gray suit with an open white shirt, boutonnière to match, keeping things effortlessly sharp. 


The ceremony took place at the Aruba Marriott. Their beachfront setup featured a wooden geometric arch dressed in lush white florals and soft greenery. Wooden chairs lined the aisle, and gold-rimmed lanterns added warmth and depth to the sandy aisle. One table, filled with family photos and a golden sign that read “heaven wasn’t so far away,” served as a quiet tribute to loved ones.The color palette of the day leaned into blush tones, soft neutrals, and natural textures—an elegant match for the ocean backdrop and golden hour light. 


We had the honor of capturing both photography and videography for Sara & Sal’s day, and every moment was a reflection of who they are: thoughtful, connected, and surrounded by love. Thinking about tying the knot in Aruba? Let us help you capture the atmosphere, the details, and everything in between—exactly how you experienced it.

Jacquelyn & Ryan

Jacquelyn & Ryan got married on the sandy shores of Aruba, with their beachfront ceremony at
the Aruba Marriott Resort. The ceremony setup was minimal and elegant: a white wooden arch
draped in sheer fabric stood at the edge of the sea, framed by rows of white chairs. The calm,
slightly overcast sky created a beautiful softness to the light—ideal for photos.

 

These two met at Mass General in Boston, where Jacquelyn was working as an ER nurse and
Ryan as a security officer. He made a point of showing up with snacks, coffee, and handwritten
notes, and she made a point of pretending not to notice—until she did. She says she went from
not caring to kind of looking for him at work. That shift sparked something real.

Despite their age difference and different family dynamics, they’ve always had an easy rhythm.
She comes from a big, lively Massachusetts family. He’s more reserved and grew up with a
smaller circle, but over time, he found his place among the crowd. They balance each other well—
she’s the spark, he’s the steady. A perfect match of energy and calm.

Jacquelyn wore a fitted lace gown with a scalloped train and a deep V neckline with sheer illusion.
The dress was detailed yet modern, with floral embroidery that flowed naturally into the layers of
soft tulle. Her bouquet was a classic mix of white roses. One especially sweet touch: her sandals
featured custom embroidery of their beloved dog.

Personal touches were woven throughout the day. Such as the groomsmen’s ties, which had
small photo prints stitched into the underside, to the custom sunglasses and denim jacket —it all
told their story. The celebration was warm, emotional, and full of personality.

We were honored to capture this wedding through photo and video, and we’re glad these memories will be treasured for years to come. Planning a wedding in Aruba? We’re here to help you capture the real moments in a way that feels true to you.

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.
