Jessica and Martin had a gorgeous beach wedding at the Grand Plaza Resort.  Jessica was such a beautiful bride!  She got ready with a stylist from the Michele Renee Hair and Makeup Artist Group.  Her gown was perfect for her and she wore it with a cathedral length veil.  Jessica and her bridesmaids had fun during the getting ready and then headed down to the beach so Jessica could have a First Sight with Martin.  The bride and groom exchanged wedding day gifts before taking wedding party and some family pictures.

2Birds Events did a terrific job with the bright and colorful floral arrangements!  Jessica’s bouquet was wrapped in a piece of her mother’s wedding gown which made it even more special.  The ceremony was officiated by a family member and the groom and groomsmen made the most of the location by going barefoot.  The couple had the scripture reading Ecclesiastes 4: 9-12 which includes the quote, “A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.”  There was a sign made of wooden planks with that quote on it and three ropes attached, and they braided those ropes during their ceremony.  The unity ropes will make a wonderful keepsake in the newlywed’s home!

The reception was decorated with tall floral centerpieces on either a blue colored vase or crystal stand.  Starfish were placed in folded napkins at each place setting.  A treasure chest held personalized “gold coins” as favors for the guests.  The wedding party wore sunglasses for their introductions, and Jessica changed into a short, one-shoulder gown for her entrance into the reception.  The videographer was from Expert Productions and the DJ was Joe Lorenzo, also from Expert Productions.  He did the reception lighting and helped to make sure the guests had a great night.  Cakes by Carolynn created the wedding cake.

We were thrilled to be part of such a beautiful and fun wedding!  Thanks to Jessica and Martin for having Jason there to celebrate with you.  Congratulations on your marriage, and we hope you enjoyed Jamaica!
