Sanibel Island Wedding Video { Vivian + Scott }

Posted on May 7, 2015 by Admin

We recently posted photos from Vivian and Scott’s incredible Sanibel Island wedding at Casa Ybel Resort. We can’t get enough of this tent wedding! On the day of their wedding, it rained all morning and the winds were unusually high, but moments before the ceremony was slated to begin, the rain subsided. This video from MVD really captured the beauty of this couple.

Casa Ybel Resort – Sanibel Island Wedding Venue { Erica + Erik }

Image | Posted on April 30, 2015 by Admin

Sure, Casa Ybel has a beautiful shell strewn beach, but you don’t have to get sand in your shoes to get married here. Erica & Erik opted for a ceremony on our grassy lawn overlooking the Gulf of Mexico and a reception on our Poolside Patio for a nautical style wedding. Of course, who can resist sunset photos on the beach?

Tented Beach Wedding – Sanibel Island, FL { Jennifer + Fred }

Image | Posted on April 16, 2015 by Admin

Fred & Jennifer’s tented beach wedding at Casa Ybel Resort on Sanibel Island was one for the ages! Hunter Ryan Photo really captured the spirit of these two and their fun-loving wedding guests. Some of our favorite features: the wine ceremony, the seashell escort cards, the suckling pig (Fred’s favorite, for sure!), the long dinner tables, Jennifer’s wardrobe change into a gold sequin designer gown and the photo booth shenanigans. This much fun couldn’t possibly have been contained indoors. A tent reception on our grassy lawn overlooking the beach was the perfect setting for such a perfect evening.

Tropical Florida Wedding – Sanibel Island { Courtney + Kyle }

Image | Posted on April 9, 2015 by Admin

Written by Frank Simonetti and re-posted from the blog of Frank Simonetti Photography.

This was a fun Casa Ybel Resort wedding for the friends and family of this couple from Staten Island. It was a destination wedding for most of the family and friends, Kyle and Courtney moved to the Fort Myers area just weeks before hurricane Sandy. Most of their old neigborhood was affected by the huge storm that summer. The ceremony was on the beach for their Casa Ybel Resort Wedding.

After Kyle and Courtney’s Casa Ybel Resort wedding ceremony, the guests walked to the tented lawn. They enjoyed cocktails and music while we continued photographing the families and bridal party. When we finished the group photographs, we had some time for the bride and groom to walk the beach. Courtney’s gown looked great as the wind picked up the train while they walked along the Casa Ybel Resort Beach. The cool evening breeze flowed through this tent wedding with music, candlelight and dinner throughout the wedding. Later in the evening, the party continued in the Waterfront Room, upstairs at the Thistle Lodge Restaurant. Shown here are some of my favorite photographs that we created at this Casa Ybel Resort Wedding. This Sanibel Island resort is well-known for destination weddings.

Tropical Beach Tent Wedding – Sanibel Island, FL { Christina + Samuel }

Image | Posted on March 26, 2015 by Admin

Tropical islands like Sanibel are a big draw for so many engaged couples. Christina & Samuel wanted to host their friends and family in the natural setting of the island and opted for a tented reception on Casa Ybel’s grassy lawn overlooking the beach and the Gulf of Mexico. The result was an authentic Sanibel Island experience: ceremony on the beach with the sound of the waves crashing in the background, al fresco cocktail hour on the lawn and a tented reception with a spectacular view of the ocean and the wildlife that Sanibel treasures.

Sanibel Island Beach Wedding – Casa Ybel Resort { Emily + Randy }

Image | Posted on March 12, 2015 by Admin

Written by Frank Simonetti and re-posted from the blog of Frank Simonetti Photography.

Emily and Randy chose the Casa Ybel Resort for their destination wedding in October! Family and friends gathered from North Carolina and other nearby states for this marriage ceremony on the beach. The weather was cool with overcast clouds, but the happy wedding guests made their own sunshine for this Tuesday afternoon affair. We took some photos of the groom and his family before the ceremony. Then the bride was escorted to the beach wedding by her Dad in his USMC uniform. The marriage ceremony was performed by Dr. Dan Lamey. Emily burst into laughter as Dr. Dan wiped Randy’s forehead of the little bit of perspiration that formed. Just moments before, Randy kissed Emily’s hands as she arrived to the ceremony. In all my years photographing weddings, I saw this beautiful display of affection just a few times… The colors of the ceremony and bridal bouquet flowers were stunning against the cloudy backdrop of the Gulf of Mexico. After the ceremony we continued with family pictures.

Dinner at a Casa Ybel Wedding

After the family left for the Patio at the Thistle Lodge for dinner, I continued photos with Emily and Randy. It was amazing what they created in their photographs, Emily and Randy were perfect together! We then all met at the Patio as dinner was prepared by the wonderful and experienced Thistle Lodge Staff. The weather this day was so pleasant for an outside dinner at the Thistle Lodge. We made a cake cutting photo and my last photo of the evening was Emily and Randy making a ‘selfie’ with their camera. Shown here are some of my favorite photographs we created at this Casa Ybel wedding.

Tented Beach Wedding – Casa Ybel Resort, Sanibel { Devorah + Jeff }

Image | Posted on March 5, 2015 by Admin

One of the things that makes Casa Ybel Resort so unique is the ability to have an outdoor tented wedding overlooking the beach. The Back Lawn overlooking the Gulf of Mexico is a spectacular setting for Sanibel Island weddings. Devorah and Jeff said their vows under a bamboo chuppah on the beach with the aquamarine ocean as their backdrop. Cocktails and hors d’oeuvres were served al fresco on the Back Lawn with a rustic chic reception under a tent. The details really made this ocean front beach wedding a sight to see – wine barrel cocktail tables, glitter stitched burlap table linens, chandeliers overhead, and driftwood centerpieces. Perhaps the most memorable features was the entertainment. Stereo Armada by Wiley Entertainment combines DJ mixes with live percussionists for a vibe that keeps the party going all night.
