Congrats to Anne & Jonathon!

Anne has such a great sense of style. I loved all the elements she put together. This gorgeous wedding was shot by Clary Pfeiffer at the Sand Dollar Estate. The adorable wedding cake was by Island Sweet Stuff. Adorable Pomeranian ring bearer? Brought from home. :)

Villa Botanica...one of my favorites...

Two posts in one day?? Crazy, right? =) I just remembered that I forgot to share these photos from Tim Rothwell. Tim traveled to St. Thomas on the Norwegian Epic with my lovely bride & groom, Mariah & Matt, to photographer their wedding at Villa Botanica on St. Thomas. Villa Botanica is an amazing venue, we often do weddings there, and it quickly becoming my favorite location for a bride & groom who are traveling on a ship to have both their ceremony & reception (it's already one of my favorites for couples that are staying on the island).

Tim & Sasha Rothwell did an amazing job! Check out these photos and then check them out at:

Simply the coolest.

I simply loved this bride and groom. You can tell by their photos that they just oooze coolness. They live in New York (cool points), they are artists (more cool points), the groom is originally from the islands (extra cool points). Her veil? Blows the coolness factor out of the water.

This couples stayed at the Marriott Frenchman's Reef, were married in front of a 130 of their closest friends and family on the lawn of Oceana with the reception following. DJ'd by one of the best (DJ Snow) and photographed by the awesome Elisha Orin.

Jack's Bight

One of my husbands and I favorite restauant in St. Thomas was Jack's Wings in Tillet Gardens. Before we had kids, we went there at least twice a week to sit at the bar and enjoy everyone's company. Post kids, we would let the little ones run around the garden and enjoy the fun island setting of Tillet. It was never really a place that I recommended for weddings. It was in the middle of the island (no ocean views) and a very local hangout. It was rare to see tourists there. I was really sad to find out that Jack's Wings was closing...but very excited to learn that they weren't really closing, just moving locations. And the new location?? Amazing. Forget about being inland, how much closer to the water can you get then THIS:



Yes, those are stairs leading right into the water! They are hoping to offer dingy service to the bar! How cool would it be to be picked up by dingy from your hotel and brought to the restaurant??





This is the old Fungi's location at Point Pleasant Resort - they did a wonderful job repainting the interior.




There is also some great outdoor space for semi-private events.





I think this is just the perfect location for welcome parties and casual receptions. There is even a beach within walking distance...



Check out the view from the beach...that's Jack's Bight there on the right hand side. I wasn't kidding, it's RIGHT on the water.



Their website is not together yet, but check out Jack's Bight on Facebook!
