Nicole and Matt’s wedding at Sirata Beach Resort in St. Pete, Florida, was pure magic. These two are the kindest people—genuine, joyful, and so deeply in love. Their day perfectly reflected their story and love for the beach, making it an honor to capture every moment with beautiful wedding photography in St. Pete.

Nicole and Matt’s love story began in Orlando in 2017, when Nicole’s best friend introduced them. They clicked instantly, and the rest is history. Matt’s thoughtful proposal came during a trip to Acadia National Park, where he got down on one knee amidst serene birch trees—a perfect reflection of their love for nature and adventure.

As Florida beach lovers, they couldn’t resist a coastal-inspired celebration with light purples, dusty blues, and sage greens. The stunning Sirata Beach Resort turned out to be the perfect backdrop for their dream wedding. With its breathtaking sunset views and calming coastal charm, it was everything Nicole and Matt envisioned. A special shoutout to Amalfi, the incredible wedding coordinator at Bellwether Resort, who made the venue transition seamless, and to Kelli at Sirata Beach Resort, who worked hand in hand to bring this day together flawlessly. Their teamwork ensured that not even a last-minute switch, caused by Hurricane Milton, could dim the joy and beauty of the celebration.

The couple wrote their own vows, creating one of the most emotional and memorable moments of the day. Their sunset ceremony felt like something out of a fairytale, and their first kiss as husband and wife under the golden sky was pure perfection. During the reception, Nicole and Matt celebrated surrounded by laughter, love, and dancing—with so many unforgettable moments, from their heartfelt introductions to their first dance as husband and wife. Thoughtful details, like DIY welcome signs and signature cocktails honoring their two pups, Dawson and Moe, made their day so uniquely theirs.

It was such a joy to document their love with photojournalistic photography, capturing every candid, heartfelt moment. From tears of joy to bursts of laughter, this wedding was a true celebration of love, family, and friendship. Nicole and Matt, thank you for trusting me to tell your story—I wish you a lifetime of adventures, laughter, and sunsets together!
