Rich and Jessica painstakingly worked to create a relaxing, intimate reception for their guests, and it was truly representative of who they are as a couple. They had a Caribbean band, signature drink, and countless details that made the party unique. Jessica's dad sculpted the beautiful lighthouses that adorned each table and each lighthouse was different-the detail in each was amazing!

This was probably one of our all time favorite BHI weddings! Wonderful couple, wonderful guests and a fun, memorable party! They even planned a cookout after the reception as a fun after party for all the wedding guests!

The beautiful lighthouses Jessica's dad created.

Crumb de la Crumb created the most delicious cake ever. Seriously.
The couple had choreographed their first dance and it was so much fun to watch!

The wedding party.

The gestures these two exchanged were so sweet, it was very evident how much they cared for each other.

The father-daughter dance gets me every time. I guess it's part of being a mom now. I just think it is one of those beautiful moments that becomes iconic in a woman's life.

After the reception we headed back to the beach house to get some more relaxed images of the bride and groom, minus the bride and groom wardrobe.

I love this image. I feel like it perfectly represents these two...taking a nap on the beach. All they need is a picnic blanket to complete the moment.

Jessica has the greatest smile!

Thanks Jessica and Rich for being so awesome and allowing us to be a part of your wedding day! You guys are the best!
