Elegant, Edgy Wedding at the Tradewinds Island Resort |St. Petersburg Wedding Photographer
Katie had had a rough day. When she got home, she shared the details of her day with her boyfriend, Joey, seeking comfort and release. She made her way to the kitchen, still caught up in reliving what had happened, and turned around to a big surprise. Joey was on bended knee with a very important question to ask her! All the frustrations of the day suddenly vanished as she screamed, “Of course!”
When it came time to plan her wedding, a sense of nostalgia led Katie to the Tradewinds Island Resort on St. Pete beach. The resort held special memories for her because she had grown up visiting the Tradewinds almost every weekend.
Katie and Joey’s wedding was a mix of edgy elegance—check out the tattoo of Joey’s lips below her clavicle—and bold colors thanks to a theme inspired by peacock colors. She envisioned a day that was fun, bold and beautiful. Their wedding was indeed all of those things and we were thrilled to be there to document it for them and their loved ones. You can catch a glimpse of their wedding trailer below and see for yourself.
Katie and Joey, we were honored to capture the start of your marriage and wish you a world of happiness. May you always find comfort in each other.
