Happy Hump Day, y’all! We’re doing something a little different today. We usually stick exclusively to Texas weddings on this site, but when I got this batch of pictures from one of my favorite photographers, Studio563, I knew I had to feature these images. So this Texas-based couple took a handful of their friends and family to a beautiful resort in Cancun, Mexico and had an absolute blast of a wedding. Craig and April of Studio563 in Houston tagged along to capture every fun-loving moment. And Mandy Millen of Every Little Detail Weddings & Events ensured that everything went off without a hitch. So take a trip to sunny Mexico on this February morning and dive into these romantic images.

From Studio563…The entire event was designed and planned from Houston by Mandy Millen with Every Little Detail Weddings & Events. Megan and Elliot are a young, fun & energetic couple who met their first day of college at Texas A & M University. They have amazing families and friends who they wanted to treat to a relaxing, 4 day long party on the beautiful beaches Puerto Moreles, Mexico. WIth some of the whitest sand and bluest water in Mexico, the amazing Now Jade Riviera resort was the perfect venue for their May destination wedding.
Right away the carefree tone was set with custom passport save the dates from Invitation Solutions who created a monogram that was used through out the wedding. The custom invitations, from Invitation Solutions, were enclosed in paper made from banana leaves to incorporate the tropical feel and accented with the colors of the ocean and sunset. Upon arriving, guests were given beach bags filled with custom beach towels by Lauren Lake Gifts, itineraries by Invitation Solutions and custom koozies by Kustom Koozies.
On the wedding day, the 5 bridesmaids and bride had hair and makeup done while the groom and groomsmen played beach volleyball. The ceremony was set beach front with an organza draped alter with arrangements of orchids and willow branches. Accents of turquoise were used on the chairs and alter. The groom wore a custom linen suit and groomsmen wore linen as well. Bridesmaids wore oasis colored dresses by Dessy and carried white bouquets of orchids and Megan in Watters and Watters carried purple dendrobium orchids.
Following the wedding guests were treated to hand rolled cigars complete with monogram labels and specialty cocktails as they listened to the music of a caribbean band. For the reception, the private beachside candlelit room had table decor of lanterns, coral, starfish, bamboo with orchid accents on crisp white linens to give a clean beach feel. Menu cards and custom monogrammed cookies were at each place setting. After dinner, cake and customary tequila shots; guests danced the night away on an LED lit dance floor to playlists made by the couple.
