Casey & Gil Married | Jacksonville wedding photographer

Casey and Gil know how to make each other laugh, and as soon as you meet them, you know they’re a fun couple and very much in love. They’re vibrant and absolutely perfect for each other. And what better way to celebrate love than a New Year’s Eve wedding? They got married at the Hyatt Regency, which has an amazing view of the St. John’s river and downtown Jacksonville. Casey and Gil, thanks for inviting me to record this special day for you! I hope you have a lifetime together of wonderful memories. And now for some pictures of the couple with that gorgeous downtown view of the city in the background:

 

Isn’t Casey stunning?

There’s something so mysterious about this picture that I love. And Casey has the perfect intense and beautiful eyes to pull it off.

And now for pictures that really showcase Casey’s personality. I love, love, love those pink shoes! They’re so girly and give that special touch to her ensemble. She had so many great details for her wedding, and when I was photographing her rings, I was struck by how dainty they are. I’ve finally met a bride who has a smaller ring finger than I do!

I’m an animal person through and through, so I couldn’t help a big smile when I saw Casey and Gil’s dog walk through the door. He rested contentedly under a chair while the girls got ready.

The ceremony took place right after sunset, so Jacksonville’s city lights were a glamorous backdrop.

At the reception, I learned that Casey’s family is musical! They took over the band’s stage for a few special songs. That’s Casey’s dad playing the guitar.

A New Year’s Eve wedding isn’t complete without fireworks. Casey & Gil brought in the new year as happy newlyweds, and now every anniversary will always have sparks. 🙂
