Doing the First Look allowed us plenty of time before the ceremony to take pictures. We really had a blast sneaking off to different areas around the resort & taking fun pictures. And besides, we didn’t want to miss the entire cocktail hour. 
Since Red Stripe was flowing like water all weekend, we thought these shots were apropos.
Mr. Quiche doesn’t really like to have his picture taken, but I do, which is why there are more solo shots of me than him. 
Then we headed off to a secret garden tucked beside the tennis courts:
I love sun flare shots, as does Ashley, so we took a ton of pictures like this! My “pose” looks so forced in the other though, so I’ll just show this one.
Okay, enough of the lovey dovey shots already! Time to have some fun with color!
We love this picture so much that it ended up on the invites for our Ohio reception (more on that later)!
So cute, right?!
We then had to pull ourselves away from each other and get ready for the ceremony
Mrs. Quiche: “I do” Mr. Quiche: “I do”. Sweet! Time for a few more pictures! And look at that - the sun is setting, making for some warm, happy pictures.
The must-have feet shot. I kinda wish we had one of the fun, bright sandals/argyle socks shots… but I didn’t have fun, bright sandals and Mr. Quiche wore brown socks & his old Kenneth Cole shoes (which were taken off immediately post-ceremony), so a barefoot shot it is!
I love the look of the moody blue sea in the background of this picture.
And finally, another kiss for my groom.
Again, thank you for making it through all of our posed portraits! I promise to return next week with cocktail hour, our entrance, the reception, etc.!

My faves are definitely the ones in front of the colored wall/doors. Can’t wait to hear about your ceremony after that double “I do” teaser!
Haha, oops! Scrolled up and realized we’d already seen it. Duh!
OMG, these are magnificent! They give you a taste of everything: serious, flirty, whimsy, romantic!
My favorites are you two at the top of the stairs!!!! Beautiful!
p.s. I love the barefoot shot as a take on the now-very-popular shoe/socks shot. It’s special that way!
WOW So many great shots! I LOVE the picture you chose for your Ohio reception
You really were a beautiful bride! Your recaps however make me want to quit my job and move to the beach! And I love the barefoot shot, so appropriate for your wedding
oh, i just love your pictures! makes me so excited for the boy’s and i future elopement in jamaica!
you’re absolutely stunning! love these pics! you guys look so great together! love all the colors!
You look so radiant in these pictures! I’m loving your recaps…you and Mr. Quiche are so cute together!
I love having my picture taking and it’s nice to hear others admit to the same thing. You know what? I think it’s okay if your album has more pictures of you than it does your husband (if you decide to make one). Mine does, and both Mr. Avo and I are very happy with it.
I think the series with the two of you in front of the bright blue is my favorite!
The brightly colored doors are beautiful (as are you and the mister). Great shots!
LOVE LOVE LOVE the picture of the two of you kissing in front of the sunset - how perfect!!
I LOVE the vibrant colors, it makes everything look like so much fin!
I love all the colors, especially the one you are using on the reception invites. Looks like the attacking veil decided to behave!
omg I LOVE sun flare shots!! that first sun flare shot of you is GORGEOUS.
Love, Love, Love the shot you used for the Ohio reception invite. It’s got an amazing vibe to it.
Ahh you’re making me want to get married in Jamaica! These pics (and those views! and colors!) and AMAZING!
these were great! I especially love the blue background shots! they totally POP!
I ADORE your pictures. Thank you for providing me with some inspiration photos to give our photographer! (you also now have me considering more color….hmmmm)
I have to tell you how excited that you did the destination wedding and I was hoping I could ask you a Bazillion questions (if you don’t mind). I love love you colors btw, I’m leaning towards wedgewood and pink myself. I am hoping that by doing the destination wedding we maybe able to do it sooner and for less. Think thats possible? Or was it about the same cost wise. You can tell me if that is too personal, I totaly wouldn’t mind!
The one you are using for your invites is my favorite too! What a beautiful contrast of the fuschia in your bouquet and aqua blue of the doors. Beautiful.
You have the perfect veil shot! And I love the captured moments between you and Mr. Q… just perfect!
Wow these pictures are HAWT! You both look amazing and I can practically feel the sun on my skin, and smell the salt in the air…
I love the one with the colored “barn” with your vail waving in the wind…what a cute picture, I love the look on your face. And how beautiful are you in the picture below that by yourself in black and white. Congrats!
oh, I can only daydream about a beach wedding as lovely as yours…sigh.
Girl, as usual you look stunning in all your photos!
@Mrs. Avocado: I’m glad I’m not the only one with more pictures of me in our album, lol!
your pictures are so amazing!! I loved that ones with the bright colors and your veil flowing magically!
Fabulous!! I can’t wait to find some fun color backgrounds at our Jamaican resort… excellent!!
These are absolutely beautiful! I love all the bright colors!
These shots are so gorgeous! I love the warm tones in the sun-flare shot.
The pictures are gorgeous!! I really like the sun-flare shot and the sun setting picture.
Oh wowww I LOVE the pic that you used for your Ohio reception…that is just too cute…and your veil! Wow!
