We had a wonderful time with Tampa locals Nichole +Everett who essentially held a destination wedding for their Midwestern families aboard the Yacht StarShip.

The couple got ready with their bridal party at the Tampa Marriott Water Street which always makes for good pre-ceremony portraits. The light that comes streaming in from the massive windows plus the light colored walls makes it seem like we are shooting inside a giant soft box light.

We had a blast photographing Tara+Nick’s cruise ship wedding in Tampa Bay Harbor aboard the Yacht Starship. The weather was perfect, crystal clear and the wind minimal. The Yacht Starship weddings are so great for the couple because their packages are all inclusive so all you have to do is show up and have a great party.

We love a unique wedding venue, and the Yacht Starship sure delivers! There is something so quintessentially Clearwater about a wedding on the water and you can’t get much closer than a wedding on a yacht!
