You might remember our high school sweethearts, Candace and Mike from earlier this year when we shot their engagement shoot at the Ever Green Brickworks in Toronto. Well… we were lucky enough to accompany them to the spectacular Dominican Republic to capture their wedding day. Candace and Mike were married under a beautiful white gazebo at the gorgeous Ocean Blue resort in Punta Cana. The ever-so-romantic ceremony was perfect – short and sweet with just their family and a few of their closest friends looking on. Our newlyweds mingled with their guests under the palm trees while a local mariachi band serenaded the group.
Afterwards we headed down to the beach where bright white sand and turquoise waters stretched out for miles. Candace and Mike are absolutely amazing to photograph. They are always smiling, laughing, having fun and were willing to try any and all of our suggestions. This included running down the beach, climbing palm trees and jumping into the ocean! After making a splash on the beach, Candace and Mike dipped into the cool blue swimming pool while other resort guests watched in amazement. Our trash-the-dress shoot drew a lot of attention and we just love how effortlessly Candace glided around in her wedding dress – which must have weighed an extra 30 pounds after getting soaked. The wedding day was perfect and completed by an intimate candlelit dinner on the beach. Many many thanks to our gorgeous couple, Candace and Mike for allowing us to capture their special day!
