Congratulations to Helen & Tony who tied the knot on Friday 8th July. I had great fun at their wedding reception based at Pappagallo in West Bay. I shot some crazy images of the newly married couple and their friends from behind the photo booth. Check out some of the photos from this great wedding event.

A little info about our photo booth……The CrazyBooth is a modern update on a classic memory maker and has become the must have addition for any wedding reception, party or shindig. It offers studio lighting that will make anyone look fabulous with enough room for all your friends to hop in. The silly and spontaneous shots that come out of this booth will leave you grinning from ear to ear for years to come. Be warned the CrazyBooth might just take over the event with outrageous laughter coming from the corner…..but that’s not a bad thing right? At Picture This Studios we provide the CrazyBooth, some crazy props, and a super friendly photographer. You will receive the high resolution images via a link or a USB stick. So what are you waiting for lets have some CrazyBooth fun!

How did you two meet?
Match.com
How did he pop the question?
We traveled to Italy; two weeks backpacking the entire country. My family came from the region of Calabria Italy so once we got there it was an important part of the trip for me. He had the ring for 10 days backpacking through Italy before we got to Tropea, a small town in Calabria. As soon as we arrived, Jason had the idea to catch the sunset on the beach. We ran through the tiny streets and down a cliffside to make it to the beach in time to not miss sunset. As soon as we got to the sand thats when it happened. Jason got down and proposed to me at sunset on the beach of gorgeous Tropea, Italy. Best day of my life until 12/15/14 when we got married.
How long have you been together?
Just over two years.
What was your favorite moment(s) from the wedding?
Holding Jason’s hands, looking into his eyes, while saying our vows
How would you describe your overall wedding experience?
Amazing. Completely stress free. Beautiful.
What advice would you offer to other couples planning a destination wedding?
Do it.
 
Tell me about your dress. Where did you find it, how did you choose it, how did you know it was the one?
I wanted a simple wedding dress, for our simple beach wedding. I loved the look of the extravagant gowns but that was not for me.. not when I was walking down the sand, rather than down an aisle in a church. I did not want my mom to spend a fortune on a dress being worn for a few hours, so we went to David’s Bridal. I found a perfect beach dress but it was missing something. Thats when my mom had the idea to add her own touch to the dress. She did an amazing job, it was incredible. Not to mention, the dress became one of a kind. It was light, breezy, elegant and even had a sexy little slit on one side. I was in love!
How was your experience taking photos/working with me on your wedding day?
Daria, you were perfect! You made us laugh when we needed big smiles, instructed us just enough but certainly not too much and even more importantly, made us feel comfortable. You made me feel beautiful, which does not happen every day. I can’t wait to find a good excuse to travel back to the Cayman Islands and have you as our photographer again!
Did you see each other before the wedding?
No, we did not do the first look. I would not have changed that for the world. It was so exciting knowing Jason was going to see me for the first time in my wedding dress just as I was walking down the aisle to him. Seeing his face, seeing the way he looked at me, that was an amazing moment. We had both pictured that moment for so long and it turned out better than we imagined.
What were you most anxious, nervous or fearful about regarding your wedding day and what was the outcome?
The weather and everyone showing up on time. Weather miraculously was perfect. Could not have been better. The wind even calmed down for 15 minutes right during the ceremony. In regards to everyone getting there on time; caterer, reverend, flowers, etc., it worked perfectly. Nothing was rushed. Everyone was there when they said they would be, most were early. it turned out perfect.
What’s one piece of advice you would give to other couples for planning their wedding?
Plan it for the two of you. Not for viewers or guests, or friends. Do not try to live up to what others have done before you. Make it personal, with things that the two of you will appreciate and remember forever.
