VIPrincessBride's Wedding Photos

Hi folks,

My new hubby and I were married June 14 in St. Thomas, Virgin Islands, my hometown. I always like going "home" on vacation. I was super excited to be returning, and this time, getting married! That was the icing on the big, beautiful wedding cake. Our photographer was so great that he gave us our photos in four days!

We took photos on the beach an hour and a half before our wedding.

Getting Ready for the Ceremony

I thought I was going to cry at the ceremony, but I didn't. I was too overjoyed.

A local baker in St. Thomas made our delicious vanilla pound wedding cake with strawberry filling. We requested 4 tiers but she threw in a large 5th tier. I purchased the candles, stands, and the sugar paste flowers. It was fun to decorate it.

It was absolutely delicious!

It was extra special to me coordinating everything including DIY projects such as centerpieces, programs, pew markers, gift bags, and decorating the wedding cake.

My most favorite part of our wedding ceremony was exchanging our personal vows..

It was a blessed day.

Re: VIPrincessBride's Wedding Photos

Absolutely gorgeous pics. Everything looked so beautiful. I really loved the way gazebo was decorated with the flowers. The groomsmen were sharp in their tan suits and peach shirts. I also like how you wrote all the captions at the bottom of pics. Felt like we were there with you. Congratulations!!

Re: VIPrincessBride's Wedding Photos

Thank you very much for the compliments and the best wishes you all. I tried to reply to someone's post before the wedding, but it didn't post. So, although you're just seeing my posts now, I've been a silent member for a few months now. I'm so happy to offer advice to anyone still planning. I feel like I have a wealth of knowledge now after my fast track course in wedding planning. Planning was fun but exhausting at the pace I was working. I am truly happy to be done with the planning and moving forward with the living and loving! Surprised)

Re: VIPrincessBride's Wedding Photos

Hi folks,

I updated the posting above with never-before-seen photos of our reception 'cause I maxed-out the photo limit on our wedding website.

Enjoy! I love this website.

Re: VIPrincessBride's Wedding Photos

I am so glad you came home for your wedding! More of us should do that! Who was your photographer? Is your hubby from the VI too? Forgive me if you answered that already. I really love your pics and your island color theme. So pretty.

Re: VIPrincessBride's Wedding Photos

Thank you, Rosie. Oh, I always wanted to get married in STT. I'm a VI lady to the bone. My husband has no immediate family so it made sense to have it there. He's from Virginia. So we were both "virgins." LOL! The photographer was Ethelbert Bedminster. He's Sugar Bay's regular photographer. I thought about going with a fancier photographer, (some of these folks do all sorts of angles and tricks with their cameras) but it probably would have cost more money, and we were happy with the results.

You were lucky to get Ethelbert. He is really amazing. And booked solid for private photography.You should see his real portfolio, not the one for hotel weddings. He has great packages with CDs and leather photo books that are outstanding. He is one of my faves! He will shoot according to budget without embarrassing the couple. Had you gone private with him, your pics would cost in the thousands, but well worth it!

Re: VIPrincessBride's Wedding Photos

"Had you gone private with him, your pics would cost in the thousands, but well worth it!"

Really?? I did look at his prices online and thought we would have saved some cash without the hotel mark-up if we had booked him ourselves, but maybe I was wrong. Thank you for telling me that we saved a bundle. Now, I can tell hubby how much money we saved. He'll be happy to hear that! LOL! I definitely don't think that Ethelbert's website photos does him justice.

My uncle's wife did mention she tried to get him for her niece's wedding but that he was booked. Not living there myself, I really didn't know which photographer would be best to go with as we had a few other approved choices, and I tried to read and look at as many online photos as possible. I definitely didn't want us to spend-up money on photos even though they're so important. I just put it with God and prayed for the best.

In any case, he was wonderful with us...and we're glad we went with him. While he was taking pics in the hotel room, he was actually helping me to cut ribbons last minute for the bouquets. I'm also glad we made full use of his talents by taking the beach photos even though the hotel's wedding director was telling me that there wouldn't be time. We made it work even though I was changing like mad into and out of clothes then hopping into that little cart to the beach and back. LOL! You do what you have to do to make things happen. It was an adventure, but that's how I like my life. Surprised)

He was very hands-on and a dream to work with...and he was so nice to give us our photos so quickly. When we came back a week after the wedding with professional photos in hand, people couldn't believe it.

Yes, we were definitely blessed. We couldn't be more thankful.
