Hotel Zamora Wedding with Moonlit Rooftop Reception | St Petersburg Wedding Photographer
 

It's easy to get caught up in the visual beauty of weddings. But beyond the wedding dresses, flowers and décor, each wedding has its own set of stories, its own heart. At the heart of Lina and Carlos' wedding day was their love of family. So much so, that they hosted their relatives at the gorgeous Hotel Zamora in St Petersburg for their wedding weekend. Loved ones flew in from as far as Columbia to be a part of the couple's big day. After getting ready at the hotel, Lina and Carlos joined their loved ones at Pass-a-Grille beach where they exchanged their marriage vows.
 

After sunset portraits, everyone met up again--this time on Hotel Zamora's rooftop for a night of dancing under the full moon. And yes, it was as exquisite and fun as it sounds. Guests cheered each other on through round after round of limbo dancing.  One of our favorite moments was seeing Lina and her friend break out into an interpretive dance number to Don't You Worry Child. 
 

The staff at the Zamora couldn't have been more helpful and we hope to be back at this Mediterranean styled hotel again. The vibrant, modern furnishings paired with the Spanish design make this one sexy boutique hotel!
 

Lina and Carlos, thank you for entrusting us to photograph your wedding. It was a pleasure getting to know you both and witnessing the memories you made with the people you love most. We wish you a beautiful marriage and may your love continue to grow.
