Esperanza Wedding Cabo San Lucas : Kelly and Brad

I
didn't meet Kelly and Brad until their engagement session in New York City this past July. We had chatted numerous times over e-mail, but living across the United States makes it extremely difficult to get to know one another well. I could tell from e-mails that Kelly and Brad were the kind of people we wanted to work with and we couldn't wait to actually meet them in person.  
 
When it came time to finally meet, it didn't take long until we all seemed to click. We sat on the roof top of their building and had a glass of champagne after their engagement session was over. I was overwhelmed by their generosity and kindness. I left New York with excitement that we were working with such great people. This was one wedding I was definitely looking forward to!  
 
Kelly and Brad had been planning their Esperanza's wedding for months and it finally came to fruition last week in sunny Cabo San Lucas. The wedding and reception was held at the Esperanza resort. Such a FANTASTIC location to have a wedding with your closest family and friends. With around 35 people, Kelly and Brad celebrated their new marriage under the stars with cold margaritas. Kelly and Brad's wedding didn't just feel like work to us, but like we were celebrating a beautiful marriage with new friends. Every single person at the wedding was a close friend or family of Kelly and Brad and we were stunned at how NICE everyone was.  
Kelly and Brad - Thank you for choosing us as your wedding photographers. We feel so grateful to have made new friends and to have celebrated with your family and friends. Thank you for your kind hearts and I know in the future, we will be working with each other again :)

Special thanks to the Esperanza for being SO accommodating! Claudia the wedding coordinator was WONDERFUL to work with. Also to Cabo Flowers for doing such a fantastic job with all the florals at the wedding.  
 
Kelly's beautiful dress was by Amsale from Saks Fifth Avenue. 
 
Kelly wore FABULOUS blue Christian Louboutin shoes and wore stunning Nadri earrings.
The photo on the right is the gorgeous view from The Esperanza's reception area.
Brad, NICE JOB!
The first look couldn't have been more gorgeous overlooking the ocean.
The Esperanza has AMAZING views throughout the entire resort. A PERFECT place to take some wedding photos.
The signing of the ketubah is the first step to making the marriage official.
Family and friends stood by their side and watched them sign their marriage liscense together. At this moment, Brad promised to love Kelly forever. Tears were welling up in just about everyones eyes. (Including mine...)
How could we forget Sophie!? Sophie was brought all the way from New York City to be a part of the wedding festivities. Yes, I want to squeeze her face everytime I see her!
The Esperanza's ceremony site was incredible. One of the most peaceful ceremonies we have been to. The chupah was STUNNING.
I love this shot Stephen took of Brad admiring Kelly as she just walked down the aisle.
I think this is one of my favorite photos from the day. Kelly's dad and brother walked her down the isle.
Family stood behind Kelly and Brad during the ceremony. I love this photo because they are both looking at their parents after being announced husband and wife.
Kelly's dad watching her walk away with her new husband.
Kelly and Brad had a "key" theme throughout the entire wedding and the fans that were handed out for the ceremony were a perfect little piece to cool off from the Meixcan weather that day.
The Esperanza staff were amazing and efficient the entire day. I loved the little couches they provided for guests to enjoy during the cocktail hour.
One thing I love about the Esperanza is their private beaches. We were the only people on the beach that evening and it was a perfect sunset.
Thank you to Cabo Flowers for providing such GORGEOUS centerpieces for the reception.
The place cards for the seating were hung next to a key. SO cute!
The Esperanza had another area for dancing. Beautiful!
Both dads. Love this shot!
