Casa-YBel-weddings

A while back, we shared with you Laura and Brian’s beach wedding on Sanibel Island.  We didn’t mention the epic welcome party they had the night before on our back lawn.  Guests dined on heavy hors d’oeuvres and fun bites like crab cake sliders and flatbread pizzas all while watching the sunset on the Gulf of Mexico.  A Caribbean band played island tunes and guests mingled among lounge furniture sets and cocktail tables.  Laura and Brian even did a little pre-wedding photo shoot on the beach that evening.  What a way to welcome everyone to a fun-filled wedding weekend!

Pure Elegance Under the Tent { Dede + Charlie } Casa Ybel Resort – Sanibel Island

Posted on by

Casa-Ybel-Wedding(18)

These are some of our favorite photos, those last few moments of quiet before the whirlwind begins. The bride reflecting on the importance of this day, her husband to-be waiting for her, and all of the friends and family who have come to witness their declaration of love.

Dede and Charlie said their I Do’s a year ago on the lush green lawn at Casa Ybel and it’s one of those weddings we talk about still. The details were simple yet spectacular under the tent. Bouquets of white lilies were a stunning contrast against the bridesmaids navy dresses. Krista from Impressions Photography did an amazing job incorporating the landscape of Casa Ybel into the story of the couples wedding day, photos we’re still ooh-ing and ahh-ing over.
