When it comes to Miami luxury weddings, it doesn’t get more iconic than the Ritz Carlton in South Beach. This Spring, I had the absolute joy of photographing this vibrant Ritz Carlton South Beach wedding and can I just say how magical it was? With a ceremony overlooking the ocean and a reception lounge bursting with color and unique style, this day was the perfect blend of style and Miami’s vibrant energy.
Ritz Carlton South Beach Wedding
The couples’ ceremony was stunning. Picture a floral arch dripping in blush pink roses with the ocean and blue sky as the backdrop. The bride looked radiant in her floral-inspired Nicole Felicia Couture gown and the groom’s white jacket was the perfect match for a classic, chic vibe.
There’s something special to be said about exchanging wedding vows with the sound of the ocean waves right behind you. It’s effortless and intimate.
The design for the reception was so unique and next-level. Under a clear tent, the Ritz Carlton beach was transformed into a lush garden meets modern lounge. The focal point was a massive circular bar crowned with tiers of yellow flowers that made everyone stop and look up.
Add in some tropical palms, bursts of coral and pink florals, and some chic seating areas and you’ve got a reception lounge that felt luxurious, fun, relaxed, and intimate. No assigned table seating here!
As a Miami luxury wedding photographer, this kind of wedding celebration is a dream to capture. The bride’s flowing dress, the intricate floral installations, the thoughtful details, the guests’ joyful reactions -all of it! It was the kind of evening that felt unforgettable from start to finish.
