Jenny and Ian brought us on board as their wedding photographers, and they went for the full 8-hour photo shoot. We had the pleasure of capturing their big day, which went down in October at the super classy Secrets The Vine Cancun. This swanky hotel sits right smack in the middle of Cancun’s hotel zone, and it’s fancy as heck!
Our day started with Jenny and Ian getting all dolled up in this snazzy Master Suite that boasted a stunning ocean view. Seriously, folks, that view was to die for! Then came the big moment. The ceremony went down right on the beach, and let me tell you, it was so darn intimate. There’s something about waves crashing in the background that just sets the mood perfectly, you know?
Once they said their “I do’s” and sealed it with a kiss, it was time to party. The dinner and dancing went down in the hotel’s swank indoor lounge. It was all super elegant, and I gotta say, the vibe was fantastic.
Now, without further ado, here are some of the absolute best shots we managed to snag on that epic day. Enjoy!
