A coastline never seemed to be far from their grasps. On a breezy but warm day at the end of April, the ocean crashed along the Atlantic coastline at Hammock Beach Resort — a backdrop that fit seemlessly into their love story. Together, they had already laid a foundation of love and respect for one another, not only chasing adventure but sharing in everyday life, together.

Jessica sat in the far back room of her suite with their pup Dayla. She swirled a glass of mimosa in her hand, counting down the minutes until she was able to see Paul. Across the lawn at the adjacent tower, Paul sat reclined in the living room with his groomsmen, drinking a Savanna cider.

As Jessica walked upon behind Paul, he took a deep breath just before she tapped his shoulder. As he turned to see her, he let out a soft “wow” as they collapsed into each others’ arms.

They married with the shimmering ocean behind them, and surrounded by everyone they hold dear. Making a commitment to love, cherish (and chase coastlines together) they sealed their forever, with a kiss.

Jess + Paul, there’s no other way around – your love is magical. You are the type of people who simply, make the world better, embracing every opportunity to shine. I’m so honored to have documented your first day as husband and wife, and cannot wait to see what the future holds for you!
