The Club at the Strand is an absolute dream venue, and we had no doubt it would be the perfect setting for Allison and Richard’s destination wedding!  These two are the sweetest couple, and from the moment we met for their engagement session in Naples last spring, we knew their big day would be incredible!  Riley of Red Letter Event Design ensured every single element was nothing short of perfection, and we began the morning by documenting all of the details.  The ladies finished up hair and makeup with La Sabrina Hair Design before Allison put on her gorgeous gown from Brenda Babe Bridal and stepped outside to greet her groom.  

The tears began as she and Richard exchanged private vows, and we set off to explore the grounds for portraits together.  We finished up with family photos just before guests arrived for a beautiful ceremony complete with harp music. Allison and Richard were beaming with joy as they shared their first kiss and were all-smiles as they greeted family and friends throughout cocktail hour.  Everyone gathered for the outdoor reception, and the space looked stunning with florals by Blume Ceremony Co.  Guests enjoyed a delicious dinner followed by desserts from Mikkelsen’s Pastry Shop.  

We stepped away for a few golden hour portraits of the newlyweds before returning to cut the cake and kick off the dance party.  The night came to a close with live music by the incredible Bay Kings Band, and we had the best time capturing all of the fun!  Allison and Richard, you have been an absolute joy to serve, and we could not have been more honored to be a part of your dream wedding.  We hope that your honeymoon in Hawaii is the perfect place to celebrate as the newest Mr. and Mrs.!
