Riviera Maya Wedding Barcelo Maya – Melissa and Kevin

Principal photographer:  Del Sol Associate

The Riviera Maya wedding of Melissa and Kevin was a day full of laughter and tears. The ceremony in the gazebo of the Barcelo Maya Palace was full of emotion as the bride and groom exchanged the very personal vows they wrote themselves. The couple recently relocated far from their families and they decided that a destination wedding was a great way to bring everyone together to celebrate their union. The cocktail hour had a lively start with a mariachi band kicking the fiesta into gear! The party continued at the reception in the Coral Beach Grill Restaurant with great food, good times and a whole lot of dancing.

When we asked Melissa why they chose Del Sol Photography, here is what she shared with us:

At first we didn’t think photography was that important to us as we didn’t want to be bogged down with taking group shots and we didn’t want to miss any of the fun of the party to go and take photos. However, I kept coming across your pictures and just fell in love with the photo-journalism style you use. You take artful photos that actually capture the feelings of the big day! These types of photos are so much more personal and special and true to the day than staged shots. While we are hoping to get a few special shots of the two of us together and with our immediate families, the in-action shots are what will bring back memories for years to come. (PS. I love the shots you guys do just after the ceremony when everyone is celebrating and hugging and so happy!! Brings tears to my eyes every time!).

Del Sol Photography would like to thank Melissa and Kevin for sharing their wedding day with us, we wish you both a long and happy life together!
