\"Bride<\/p>\n

Kimberly and Mark decided to have their ceremony at Marriott Frenchman’s Reef Resort<\/a> on St. Thomas. There were so many unknowns going into the wedding day and Kimberly was amazing and we never once saw her sweat it…. Even though we only had a certain amount of time to get off the boat, get cabs to the Marriott<\/a>, check into the hotel, have hair and make-up done for Kimberly and her bridesmaids, get married, then take cabs back to the boat before “all aboard” time. Even when the cab got a flat tire. (More on that lovely story later!)<\/p>\n

\"Royal<\/p>\n

See? Only real smiles. She’s my favorite. :)<\/p>\n

Randomly enough, this was actually our second wedding at Marriott Frenchman’s Reef<\/a>. Our first was Julie and Christopher’s wedding<\/strong><\/a>!<\/p>\n

Kimberly had these adorable shoes picked out but opted for true-to-her Sperry boat shoes instead. I love her even more for it!<\/p>\n

\"Bride<\/p>\n

Kimberly had some of my all time favorite “getting ready” photos. She was just so darn excited!! :)<\/p>\n

\"Bride<\/p>\n

Kimberly’s dad couldn’t make it to the wedding, but he was there every step of the day via iPad. Nate was helping hold it here so her dad could see all the girls at once. :)<\/p>\n

My #2, #3, and #4 favorite getting ready shots below. First, we have Kimberly excitedly slipping into her wedding dress using her self-proclaimed “t-rex hands.” Swooooooooooon!<\/p>\n

\"Bride<\/p>\n

Excited fists. <3 <3 <3<\/p>\n

My mom gave me away over the phone, so Kimberly’s “iPad Dad” put a lump in my throat for sure. :)<\/p>\n

As I mentioned earlier, this was our second time photographing a ceremony<\/a> at Marriott Frenchman’s Reef. So weird because in a few short years, the ceremony site changed so much!<\/p>\n

Kimberly unraveled her personal vows to Mark. <3<\/p>\n

And then they literally “tied the knot.”<\/p>\n
