Pirates!

The beaches of Northwest Florida's Emerald Coast are known for many things, beautiful white sand, beach weddings, and festivals.  There is always something fun going on at our beach communities.  Pensacola Beach has an amazing Seafood Festival, Destin hosts a Fishing Rodeo, Sandestin sponsors a Wine Festival plus so much more!


One of our couples at Sunset Beach Weddings decided to coincide their beach wedding with Panama City Beach's Pirate Festival.  Together we planned a lovely morning beach ceremony, leaving time for them to attend the Pirate Festival later that evening.  All their guests were excited for the festival too and could be heard discussing plans as soon as the ceremony ended.  During the photography session, something really special happened.  A pirate boat sailed by the beach and fired off the cannon!  Those were two happy newlyweds.

Happy Valentine's Day!!

It's a day of love!  Even with the commercialism, it is nice to take a moment to think about our special people.  Maybe we try a little harder after Valentine's to show each other how much we care.  Here at Sunset Beach Weddings, we get excited for Valentine's day for many reasons, but one is that many couple's get engaged today!  To celebrate today, we've put together a photo set of some of our couple's with hearts on their minds and in their hands taken from some of beach weddings in 2011.

I'm going to marry Thomas the Tank!

Sunset Beach Weddings is a family owned and operated company.  As part of the family, our teenage son, often is involved in setting up and clearing the beach ceremony site.  


After one wedding in Panama City Beach, he was toting chairs back to the van, while a beach-going family who had witnessed the ceremony was also packing up to leave.  They reached the boardwalk about the same time, and the youngest daughter told him that she was going to get married on the beach too.  She didn't stop there, however, announcing that she intended to marry Thomas.  I arrived in time to catch the following exchange.


Our Son, "Who's Thomas?"
Little girl, "You know, Thomas the Train."
Our Son, "I don't think you can marry a train."
She did not seem concerned.

How do you like my starfish?

Everyone loves a beach wedding.  At Sunset Beach Weddings, our brides are often approached by well wishers before their processional begins.  Our grooms are congratulated by other beach patrons.  After being pronounced husband and wife, you may hear applause from condo balconies.  


One bride, in Panama City Beach, had a unique experience. As I met with a bride and her father before the ceremony, a young girl came up the boardwalk towards us.  It isn't unusual for little girls to stop and tell a bride how pretty she is, or "I love your dress!"  Well this particular young lady had no interest in any of that.  She walked straight up to the bride (obviously she must be the most important, all dressed up like that) and stuck out her beach pail for inspection.  "How do you like my starfish?" she asked.  The bride peeked into the bucket and told the little girl it was a lucky starfish.  They both walked away with big smiles.
