Intimate Beach Wedding Done Right

I simply adore tiny, family only Intimate Weddings. They are just so cozy, and beyond full of love and laughter! Not that the larger ones are not, but there is so much more time to be close and to really enjoy each and every person when it is just immediate family.

Mr. and Mrs. Sikes were married at Casa Ybel Resort on June 30th, 2010, in the most perfect little intimate ceremony, with just immediate family and their beautiful children. Everything about that day and this wedding was personal, sweet, and such a joy to be a part of!!


The wedding was shot by Audrey and Michael from Audrey Snow Photography, who did an amazing job capturing this wonderful family!!
