Melissa & Mike: Married! – Ritz Carlton Palm Beach – PART ONE

I have so many favorites from Melissa & Mike’s wedding that it’s going to require a 3 part blog entry so as not to overload your computers!

Melissa & Mike’s wedding was so much fun to photograph because I have been friends with Melissa since she and I were 11 years old. We went to middle school together – met on the first day of 6th grade, actually – and then high school. We have kept in touch all these years and as a good friend, it was such a pleasure to see her special day through my camera.

Thanks also to Justin from JSR Photo for shooting with us!

First, check out Melissa & Mike’s amazing slideshow. With 148 images, it covers the highlights of the day, from getting ready, the ceremony, portraits, and the reception!

Now, the first post will contain highlights of their details. There were LOTS of details in this wedding. From the dress, to the rings, to the AMAZING floral details put together by Dalsimer Atlas Florists & Event Decorators. If you are looking for an incredible florist, these guys are the bomb because I have never seen a reception so brilliantly decorated until saw Melissa’s vision come to life at her wedding.

Melissa decided on fuchsia Kate Spade shoes for a little flare on her wedding day!

Gorgeous bridesmaid’s bouquets.

The table decorations and centerpieces were incredible. I don’t know how else to describe it!

Melissa’s feet show off her colorful shoes during her and Mike’s first dance – the Tango!

Gorgeous rings.

You are THE BEST photographer and I hope that you know that. And I mean REALLY know that. I know Melissa too and because of that these photos mean that much more to me....but all of your images make me feel like I know the couple - they are just THAT good. AMAZING AGAIN KAREN!!!!
