Jamaica’s Tourquoise Sea a Perfect Setting

Posted by StrictlyWeddings.com :: Filed Under

This summer’s heat is so overwhelming we went looking for something with a “cool” feel. This ocean side wedding in Jamaica from Andy Marcus of Fred Marcus Photography in New York was the perfect refreshment.

The magical Jamaica Inn in Ocho Rios was this wedding’s destination. It has an incredible beach, gorgeous rooms, and a private, small hotel that you can take over with loved ones. The vision for this wedding was for something elegant, relaxed, fun and comfortable.

The day of the wedding was spent with volleyball, swimming in the ocean and lounging together until the afternoon ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. Late night there was a bonfire for post-wedding relaxation in the sand and continued cocktails.

The bride’s dress was by Monique Lhuillier. This dress was perfectly elegant and simple for a beach wedding. The lace made it special, but the design made it relaxed, comfy and very much her style. The bride was able to dance and move in it – even sit in the sand – plus she could be barefoot. Very important for a wedding with a “no shoes” dress code!
