Weddings come in all shapes and sizes! I’m delighted to be writing today about Jacqueline and Neil’s micro wedding in The Bahamas. These two celebrated their day with around 30 guests at The Cove – the most perfect resort in Eleuthera! This getaway spot offers so many different beautiful areas to explore – which definitely makes for great portrait backdrops!
The day before the wedding we did a portrait session by the pool, and then strolled around the resort for a few more photos. I could tell right away how comfortable Jacqueline and Neil are with one another, and how easy to photograph! They’ve been together for almost a decade, and their ease and joy in one another was so apparent. Jacqueline was such a stunning bride! She was absolutely radiant the entire time I spent with her – so much natural elegance and a true sense of style. Her Monique Lhuillier gown was both delicate and fierce. She really looked like a dream!
As you’d expect, the wedding day itself was warm and lovely, with fluffy pastel clouds floating in the sky all the way to the horizon. The bridal party was made up of Neil’s children and Jacqueline’s childhood best friend – very sweet. This celebration made it clear how special micro weddings can be. The couple can truly enjoy their guests, especially when it’s a destination wedding taking place over several days. And I’m so grateful for another collaboration with the amazing Marva of Chic Bahamas Weddings! As usual, all the details came together beautifully. At the end of the day, as Jacqueline and Neil and their guests enjoyed dinner under the stars on the beach, I found myself taking in the softly glowing lights and the gentle sounds of the ocean.
I hope these photos take you away, if only for a moment, to the beauty of The Bahamas and the joy of spending a special day with your loved ones.
