Wedding Photography at The Fives Playa del Carmen

by Best Resorts, Photo Shoots, Playa del Carmen (Riviera Maya)

Megan and Brock had us as their wedding photographers, and they were like, “Let’s roll with the 5-hour photo shoot!” And we were all like, “Absolutely!” Their awesome wedding went down in June, and let me tell you, it was a total blast.

The morning of the big day, we were all up in The Fives Beach Hotel. Megan was rocking that bridal glow, and Brock was the definition of dapper. The rooms were buzzing with excitement, hairspray, and laughter. We clicked away as they got dolled up, capturing every moment of anticipation.

The ceremony itself? Oh, it was off the charts! The Sky Terrace at the hotel was the perfect backdrop, with the Caribbean Sea stretching out as far as the eye could see. It was all blue skies, salty breezes, and pure romance. Megan walked down that aisle looking like a goddess, and Brock was grinning from ear to ear. We couldn’t have asked for a better view.

Now, let’s talk photos. We’ve got a handful of shots that are pure magic. We’ve sifted through the bunch and picked out some stunners for you to feast your eyes on. There’s Megan and Brock sharing their first kiss as a married couple, the breathtaking beach view in the background. Trust us, these pics will give you all the feels.

So, check out this little preview of their special day, and remember, we were honored to be a part of it. Megan and Brock, your love story is one for the books, and we’re thrilled we could capture these memories for you. Cheers to the happy couple!
