From the moment we met Julia and Cooper at their breathtaking engagement session on Naples Beach, we completely fell in love.  These two have been an absolute joy to serve, and we were beyond excited for their wedding!  We had no doubt that the Ritz-Carlton in Naples would be the perfect setting to host their dream day, and Vanessa and her team were second to none!  Every detail was expertly coordinated by Brittiny of Florida Wedding Design who ensured the day was flawless from start to finish.  

We began the morning by documenting the details including invitations by The Paper Merchant as the ladies prepared with Unbreakable Beauty on hair and makeup.  Julia put on her gorgeous Beccar gown from Palm Bridal and headed to the Ritz for the sweetest first look with her groom!  The tears began as Cooper turned to see his beautiful bride, and we set off to explore the grounds together for portraits.  The wedding party joined us for photos, looking stunning in their Jenny Yoo dresses and suits from The Tuxxman, and we finished up with family portraits before guests arrived.

Family and friends gathered in the Vanderbilt Courtyard for a beautiful outdoor ceremony with music by Jade Strings, and Julia and Cooper’s smiles radiated pure joy as official newlyweds!  We can’t wait to see all of the sweet emotions captured by the talented Curtis Kennedy Films and Classy Content Co.  Following cocktail hour in the Palm Terrace, and the most dreamy golden hour photos on the beach, we gathered for the reception in the Center Courtyard.  The space looked incredible with breathtaking arrangements by Floral Symphony, and guests enjoyed dinner and a gorgeous Millefoglie Italian cake created by the Ritz-Carlton’s pastry chef.  Following toasts, the night came to a close in the Artisan Ballroom with dancing to live music by the Josh Greyson Band.  Julia and Cooper, your day was a dream come true in every way, and we hope that St. Lucia is the perfect way to celebrate!
