We vacationed in Grand Cayman during May of 2017 and completely fell in love with Seven Mile Beach and the Westin. We just knew we had to come back with our children and make it our wedding location.
Our passion for health and fitness brought us together, having met at Gold’s Gym 13 years! Since then we became BEST FRIENDS that work hard, play hard and parent 4 AMAZING children together.
Yes, we all got ready together in our GORGEOUS 2 bedroom suite in the Westin. It was the ideal situation for our family and LOVED that Rebecca captured all of the prepping & fun that took place prior to the ceremony.
The “sand ceremony”, not really ethnic or traditional…… just something we felt added that special touch and experience as we blended our family together just like combining the crystals of the sand.
Walking down the aisle toward the beach was the most magical moment of our lives. The beauty of the water, the sand, the sunset and our children by our side was a moment to absolutely treasure forever!
Standing on the beach, feeling the sunset, hearing the waves, holding hands as we said our vows surrounded by our children!
Magical and everything we dreamed it would be!
To just be yourselves and have TONS of fun!!!
We knew as soon as we decided to get married on the Beach that we did not want to wear the traditional Wedding Gown & tuxedos! We went for a more beachy/casual/classy look with Tommy Bahama attire for the guys and pastel pinks/ivory for the girls dresses.
For Hair/Makeup we used Jackie Soriano and she was AMAZING to work with!! We also used The Flower Dell for our bouquets, it was easy to work with Del Child and her pricing was extremely reasonable. And of course the Westin Resort speaks for itself!! Natasha, our Westin Wedding Coordinator took wonderful care of us and made sure everything was scheduled and handled perfectly.
Working with you, your husband & your son was truly a pleasure for us!! We honestly couldn’t have mad a better choice. You all made us feel completely comfortable and relaxed with regards to both the pictures and the video with NO pressure or stress. We felt as if you were all PART of our wedding!!! 🙂
