Kim + Matthew = A Contemporary Cayman Wedding

You are going to SO love this wedding. It’s the perfect combination of modern, elegant and all around gorgeousness. Kim & Matthew, both Caymanians, tied the knot this past March. The ceremony was held at Church of God and the reception at the Great Lawn of Ritz Carlton Grand Cayman.

The draping added drama and romance to the entire church.

The radiant bride chose a bridal bouquet that was an elegant mixture of white Calla Lilies and exotic orchids such as Cymbidium, Dendrobium and Phaelanopsis. Silver and crystal accents were added for an extra touch of elegance.

Kate + James = A Dream Destination Wedding in Cayman

Celebrations had the great pleasure of coordinating the wedding of a very active blogger in Weddingbee, Kate, aka Mrs. Kitten, a law student from Texas. Kate opted for a stress-free destination wedding in the Cayman Islands . To quote her: "I'm beyond excited to become Mrs. Kitten on a fabulous Caribbean vacation surrounded by my friends and family!"

Kate is a self confessed perfectionist. Her sense of style and perfectionism was truly reflected in her wedding, from her bridal flowers, to the dresses, the wedding stationery and everything in between.

Photos shown below are just a few of the many gorgeous shots taken by this awesome Texas-based husband and wife tandem, The Nichols! Wow is not enough of an adjective to say how we love these wedding photos.

Gorgeous weather, blue skies, lush greens, emerald seas all combined spells perfection!
