These two are some of my favorite people. I know it’s going to be a perfect wedding day when I walk into a room and it’s like I am among my friends. Mariel & Jayce live on the east coast of Florida close to our own family, and now when planning a trip over there we have to make sure we can see them too. Mariel grew up in Tampa Bay and both of them are beach lovers, so a nautical beach wedding took no second thoughts for them. The ceremony was at St. John Vianney on St. Pete Beach and the navy and blush themed reception took place at Grand Plaza Resort. Photographing these two is so easy and their family was the same. Jayce’s sister and Mariel’s brother were their Maid of Honor and Best Man and family was a huge part of their ceremony traditions. The reception details were simple and elegant and included a few awesome surfing details. You might remember their epic beach engagement session from last year where they featured a bright yellow surfboard that Mariel & Jayce have used over the years. Well this was their guest book and I think this is such a cool & uniquely personal thing they get to display in their home now.

And can we talk about bridesmaid style for just a moment, because this gorgeous lady has a lot of it!

Congrats again, Mar & Bub! We can’t wait to see you guys again soon!
