Diana and Wes were married on Sunday, May 24th, 2009 on the South lawn of La Playa Beach Resort in Naples.

On arrival, we met up with Diana and her flower girls as they were doing some pictures with her photographer Tonya Malay.  Tonya and her team are always a pleasure to work with.

Soon afterwards, the bride and groom met for a first sighting in Lantern Lane – where they shared a quick moment with their parents, bridesmaids and groomsmen.

The ceremony was perfect and concluded with a sand ceremony, where the bride and groom combined their jars of colored sand representing the unity of their lives.

Later, Diana and Wes moved to the beach for some more video and pictures, while guests enjoyed cocktails and hors d’ oeuvres on the terrace outside the Baleen ballroom.

As that last rays of sun trimmed the cloud tops in pink, the bride and groom made a break for their reception.

As guests entered the ballroom, they noticed a colorful dessert bar on the left, and the room dressed in white linens with chair covers, gorgeous centerpieces, and led lights adding splashes of color along the white backdrop near the dance-floor.

Following the introductions, first dance, toasts, and dinner hour, picked up the tempo with lots of lively dance music – where friends and family enjoyed dancing into the night.

All in all, this party was a great combination of elegance and fun – especially made obvious by the big smiles all night long from Diana and Wes on their wedding day!
