Gold & White Beach Wedding

Kona Kai Resort – The Bread Fruit Suite Is a classic French Modern three room suite with a full kitchen. It overlooks the water and has its own particular hammock beach area. It’s the best appointed of the 13 suites and would be the suite of choice for me where I the bride. It’s big enough to really relax in whilst observing the comings and going’s of the guests across the beach and to the point.

THE WEDDING TEAM

The Bride, Michelle – She is a savvy jewelry making barista with a particular style all to herself. An experienced model, the world seems to really be her oyster. Incredibly serene and surprisingly sassy – she seems shy and then you see that twinkle in her eye. Thanks Michelle! We loved your presence. You sizzled!

The Groom, Josh – He is a world traveler with mixology skills beyond belief. Known for his charm and happy go lucky lifestyle, Josh brought experienced modeling to the table – for which we have Angie Bray to thank. Josh you were an absolute pleasure to film and photograph.

Angie Bray of Angie Bray Make Up Artistry was a mystery to me until the moment cameras started rolling. Lights camera make up action.

I will be forever wowed by the gorgeous red-blush tinted hair with its ringlets and waves. The face and hair were met by me with the ‘knock me down with a feather’ response. And she kept it looking good for 5 hours!

Her makeup was immaculate. She made up Michelle in the Bread Fruit Suite overlooking the water. Michelle was rapturously happy with the work Angie did. Her artistry remained beautiful throughout the photo, film, and drone shoots, in the wind! And when finally the Cupcake Champagne cork was popped, Michelle looked as fresh as ever.

THE DECOR & DETAILS

Trading Post, Islamorada – the Rose Gold Cups by ‘Fred’ like a solo cup only gloriously rosey with a perfect hint of gold – these things are amazing. I’m definitely keeping them.

Cupcake Rose Champagne – Definitely the tickle all of those gathered were waiting for – nothing at all – comparable to a Florida Keys sunset on the point at Kona Kai Resort

Cafe Moka always delivers the most authentic and superior French pastry – from the source – originally from the Basque region of France – Narbonne – the family Bellion donated a selection of chocolate, almond, sugar, and plain petite croissants; a delicate selection for our bride and groom at their lovely table under the tiki.
