Lighthouse First Look | Hope Town, Abaco, Bahamas | Shane & Jessie's Wedding

Shane and Jessie Blog (60 of 72).jpg

One-Hundred-and-one stairs later Jessie made it to the top of the Elbow Reef Lighthouse to meet Shane for their first look. Pulling her dress after her she crawled out of the narrow opening onto the deck at the top of the lighthouse. The stunning view of Hope Town harbour and her soon-to-be husband made the long hot walk to the top in a wedding dress worth it. As she planted a kiss on the back of his neck Shane turned to see his beautiful beaming bride. These two were all smiles and laughter the whole day! 

The ceremony was held on the Atlantic Ocean beach of Elbow Cay. After their first kiss as husband and wife Shane pulled out his guitar and sang Jessie a song he wrote for her.

A beach walk after the ceremony provided time alone to enjoy their first moments as a married couple. But before heading to the reception Shane & Jessie had something else in store. The next thing I knew they were running into the ocean together!

Their super fun choreographed dance under the palms and stars was the perfect end to a beautiful wedding!
