Ritz Carlton Amelia Island Wedding

Amelia Island is one of my favorite places on earth. It’s one of those locations outside the normal laws of nature. An island paradise in Florida that lives on its own time and its own weather systems.

For example; when it rains in Amelia Island, it’s not raining. You could show me a literal video of rain coming down on Amelia Island and I still wouldn’t believe you.

Let me have my magical place!

Speaking of magical places,

Nestled on the shore of where the land meets the beautiful azure waves of the Atlantic stands a rather magical Amelia Island Wedding Venue.

The Venue

Located at 4750, Amelia Island Parkway, The Ritz Carlton is far more a resort than a luxury hotel. With an on-site spa, tennis and pickle-ball court and its own private beach access, it is a jewel of the 13 miles .

Oh, and it’s also going to be the location of this year’s Engaged 2024! An industry wide event for Luxury Wedding Professionals to mingle. It’s literally the vacation spot for those who work in vacation spots all around the world.

So, needless to say this stunning venue is going to be getting more popular than it already is, rather soon. As for the brand of Ritz Carlton, if you would like to learn about the illustrious brand and where it all began from, be certain to view our piece on Ritz Carlton Orlando! This is a must read if you’re a history buff!

Which brings me to the main reason I’m writing this today. I mean, I am an Amelia Island Wedding Photographer. So it only makes sense for me to show off a gorgeous wedding at this incredible Amelia Island Resort.

Beth and Owen’s Ritz Carlton Amelia Island Wedding

Beth and Owen chose to have a destination wedding planned by the impeccable Lulu Events. I love Vicki Blood, the owner and lead planner for them. Her vision is always so gorgeous and she has a wonderful team behind them. The perfect planner if you intend to have a night of dancing on the dune lined grounds of the Ritz Carlton.

While destination wedding for many stateside photographers means overseas, that is not actually the case. A destination wedding is anywhere that is out of town from where you are that is an active destinations for vacationers. Amelia island absolutely fits that bill.

Beth and Owen had their gorgeous destination wedding at the Ritz Carlton on Amelia island. An extravagant day of love, laughter and cocktails at the ready.

This paradise opened the sky up for their wedding. Beautiful brilliant blue skies above while they joined hands in front of their family and friends. Soft waves rolling in, the scent of ocean mist wafting over the Ritz grounds.

The moment was perfect for their “I Do’s”.

Their vows spoken.

Their kiss had.

I knew I had to take them onto the beach for a few photos, because how could I ever resist capturing a lovely couple in front of the stunning blues of the Atlantic. The sand was a lovely change of pace, but alas, its a wedding day.

Saying goodbye to my beautiful soft sands, we went back into the Ritz and said hello to the most gorgeous reception space!

A stunning white tent set up on the lawn of the Ritz. A luxury tent wedding reception at its finest.

I was in love.

As the lovely couple made their way in, everybody cheered and celebrated them. Which, reminds me of a little saying I heard recently that I love:

It’s your wedding day. You are not the host. You are the Guest of Honor!”

Well, Beth and Owen must have heard that because they ate up the spotlight!

The rest of the evening was filled with dancing and laughter and the light of my flash filling the room capturing this stunning moment.

There was also a fascinating moment with a fog machine and champagne, but I’ll just let the photos tell you that tale.

Which, I feel it is certainly time for me to allow those photos to finish up the tale of this incredible day.

To Beth and Owen!

Warmly,

Rachael
