Hotel Del Coronado Beach Wedding | Gina + Kevin

 

Although the Hotel Del Coronado is always beautiful, it’s not every day that it looks like a tropical island somewhere in the Bahamas! The wedding featured today was just such a day…absolutely magical with almost white sand beaches and gorgeous clear blue skies dotted with wispy cloudys. Gina and Kevin were a really special couple. I was touched by their kindness and loving hearts that showed in the way the treated everyone. Susanne Duffy of Crown Weddings coordinated this beautiful event and the decor was unique, vibrant, elegant, and everything a bride could dream of for one of the most important days of her life! Susanne worked with Emily Smiley of Platinum Pro on the florals and overall look of the beach wedding and the visual collaboration was vibrant and unique with lot’s of unexpected details and texture like driftwood paired with lanterns and succulents paired with bright pink and purple flowers! You can find a full roster of the vendors who worked so hard to make this wedding amazing right below the photos:)

Here are a few of my favorite images….feel free to pin or leave a comment, we’d love to hear from you!

Every love story has its own setting. For some, it’s a fancy restaurant. For others, it’s the back of a truck under the sky. What matters isn’t where—it’s the yes.
