Natalie & Ryan | Hyatt Key West | Studio Julie

We met up with Natalie while she was getting ready in the board room at the Hyatt. She was just finishing hair and make-up and all of her girls were buzzing around the room with excitement. Natalie was so cute, as we caught her glimpsing out of the window several times to check out her ceremony set-up. Love and Bloom did an amazing job on her decor and flowers. After the guest were all seated and Ryan was in place, Natalie took her walk down the aisle as everyone looked on. With a perfect setting and close friends and family watching on these two exchanged vows and said their “I Do’s” without hesitation, and smiling all the way. I love shooting sunset at the Hyatt as it gives such an amazing view of the sky and the Key West harbor. Natalie and Ryan were so eager for sunset that we took advantage of their eagerness and shot some amazing images. We even had time to shoot some cool pictures of the entire bridal party. As the reception time neared, Lindsey and her crew at the Hyatt had the Marquesa Room all set and ready for the party.  The couple danced and their first dance as husband and wife and then took their seats for some awesome toasts. Natalie had some cool personal touches throughout their reception such as; table numbers were pictures of the bride and groom at their respective age. Also, she had replaced the bathroom signs with pictures of the bride and groom at a young age on the potty. I also loved the postcard station, which allowed guest to write a personal message to the couple via mail, and they were already stamped and pre-addressed. With dinner and the formalities finished, the group began to cover the dance floor. I must admit Ryan has some mad dance skills. We grabbed some great dance photos of some pretty awesome moves. As the night came to an end, we said our goodbyes and headed out for the night. We left everyone dancing and having an amazing time!

Wishing you two all the best,
