Jennifer and Christopher, a couple from Philadelphia who met online, chose Smathers Beach in Key West for their destination wedding. After their beachfront ceremony, we photographed them at the historic Casa Marina resort, capturing a romantic day on Key West's sugar-white sand and turquoise water.
This lovely couple from Philadelphia, Jennifer and Christopher, met online and have been inseparable ever since. Along with their family, they came down for a sweet, romantic destination wedding on the beautiful Smathers Beach in Key West — an excellent choice. These two looked like they came straight out of Vogue.
After their ceremony, we took some beautiful shots at the Casa Marina in Key West, a historic oceanfront resort with everything from a stunning beachfront lawn to an elegant ballroom. Sparklers made the celebration fun, and we couldn't get enough of that gorgeous Key West sunset.
One of our favorite parts of any ceremony is capturing the couple's first married kiss behind the scenes, in the blink of an eye. With sugar-white sand, crystal-clear water, and that island vibe, Key West is truly one of the ultimate South Florida destinations to get married.
“When it comes to saying "I do", there is no place more magical than Smathers Beach in Key West, Florida.”
