Virginia Beach Wedding Photography

My first wedding of 2016 was quite a unique event. One that was full of amazing moments, lots of laughter, joyful dancing and once-in-a-lifetime memories. Kayleigh and James were married in January at a surprise wedding! Yes, you read that right. Family and friends thought they were attending a party – a reunion of sorts- but they got a huge surprise as they were being ushered from cocktail hour to the dining room. Kayleigh’s parents announced that they were actually attending a wedding instead! The ceremony began promptly after the announcement was made and there was hardly a dry eye in the house.

It was such an honor and a joy to document this amazing event, which was held at Sweetwater Cuisine in Virginia Beach, VA. Ohhh, how I love Sweetwater Cuisine! Everything they do is beautifully appointed and the catering service is top-notch. They sure know how to serve up deliciousness in style. And oh my, every dish is divine. (Don’t get me started on the mac and cheese – just do yourself a favor and go get some!)

Kayleigh and James were married in a quaint ceremony surrounded by their closest family and friends. Today I am sharing some of my favorite moments from their beautiful winter wedding. Enjoy!

Here is what Kayleigh had to say about her wedding gallery:

“I’m so happy that Melissa was the photographer for my wedding day. She listened to every detail about my surprise wedding and was just as excited as I was to know the secret. My images are stunning and breathtaking. She captured my wedding day perfectly. Her images aren’t just images. They are art. I can’t wait to book a family session with her!”

Congratulations and best wishes Kayleigh and James!!
