Megan and Richard : Beach Wedding : Destin, Florida Photographer


The days leading up to Richard and Megan's wedding were nail biters as Hurricane Nate came up through the Gulf. But these two stayed calm and let the storms pass, knowing the sun would shine again.  The days after storms like that, can have some of the most beautiful weather, and that is exactly what their day was like. The beach has practically washed out during the storms and by their wedding day just enough of a sliver was open to have their ceremony on the beach. Weather was perfect, the sun was shining and everyone was happy to be gathered to celebrate this family of three finally becoming one.  Megan had a sweet moment doing a first look with her dad just before seeing Richard. The first look with Richard was one of my favorite moments of the day. You can see in the pictures just how nervous and excited he was to be able to see his bride. Their daughter was just as much of a part of their day as she showed her spunky personality and got to wear her own white dress. She also helped to dance the night away on their dance floor just above a backyard pool. This was the kind of night that was a party rather than a quiet reception and I loved every minute of hanging with this group! Thank you Megan and Richard for having me be a part of your day. Come back to the Gulf coast often, just don't bring the hurricane next time. :)
