Kawthr and Hamad, a Syrian bride and Pakistani groom, were married at The Ritz-Carlton in Coconut Grove, Miami, where we served as their photographers. The multicultural celebration closed out our 2022 wedding season, blending both cultures with florals, sparklers, fog machines and outfit reveals.
What happens when you blend two amazing cultures? Kawthr and Hamad chose us to be their photographers for their multicultural Ritz-Carlton wedding. With a gorgeous Syrian bride and a handsome Pakistani groom, this wedding was the perfect blend of both worlds, and The Ritz-Carlton in Coconut Grove was the perfect setting for their big day.
The bride and groom were absolutely glowing with happiness, and their families were so supportive and loving. The whole day was filled with joy, laughter and love. The Jannette Alvarez Designs team provided all of the gorgeous elements, from the floral arrangements to the beautiful outdoor ceremony setup, while the Ritz-Carlton Coconut Grove staff and venue made everything seamless.
From colors to sparklers, fog machines to outfit reveals, this wedding day was a true show stopper. This Pakistani and Syrian wedding closed off our last wedding of 2022 with a bang. Thank you Kawthr and Hamad for trusting us to capture one of the most important days of your lives.
“The story of two beautiful souls that become one, and priceless memories to cherish for a lifetime”
Good to know
If you're dreaming of a relaxed-luxury celebration at The Ritz-Carlton in Coconut Grove, we'd love to capture your story. Let's tell yours the way we told Kawthr and Hamad's.
View our photographyThe Ritz-Carlton Coconut Grove sits on Biscayne Bay in the Coconut Grove neighborhood of Miami, Florida, one of the city's oldest waterfront districts just south of Downtown and Brickell. The property's outdoor terrace works well for a bayfront ceremony or reception, and its event spaces can hold a large wedding party, which matters for the multi-day, multi-hundred-guest scale that Pakistani and Syrian weddings often run.
If you are planning here, build your timeline early. The Ritz-Carlton culinary team customizes menus one-on-one through their special events manager, and can source items beyond the standard menus, which is useful when a celebration spans more than one cultural tradition and more than one day. Choose a venue large enough for your full guest list and central enough that guests can reach it easily, and lock in an experienced wedding photographer early, since the day moves fast and the photos are what you keep.
