Glamorous Destination Wedding in Barbados
We are all self-proclaimed glam lovers around these parts. The higher the heels and the more sparkly the sparkles, the louder the squeals heard round the office. Now take that love of glam and infuse it into a homegrown wedding in Barbados and you have what can only be described as pure destination perfection captured by Jonathan Volk plus a film by Jon Macapodi below.
From the Bride... My husband and I got married at my family's home in Barbados, where I am originally from. Our ceremony was on the cliff overlooking the ocean, and the reception was held in the driveway in front of the house. Being that Barbados is an island, it's quite difficult to have everything you want because of shipping etc. Luckily we had lots of help and all of my bridesmaids pitched in by packing candy, tablecloths, and all sorts of accessories! My mum is so talented and she is the one who honestly did everything. She drew what she wanted for the arch we got married under, she chose all the vases for the flowers, the lights, the chandeliers and all of the wedding details. She was absolutely my wedding coordinator! My husband is a musician and is endorsed by DW drums, and our great friend makes the most spectacular wedding cakes and surprised Garrett with one of his actual drum kits. An exact replica!! The ring I wore on my middle finger was the very first diamond ring my grandfather gave my grandmother…and she gave it to me that day! It was the most amazing night under a huge full moon and I just wanted to share the pictures!!
