“Stunning, elegant and fun”…such a perfect description for Jessica + Joe’s Miami beach wedding! I love the vibrant florals of orange, purple, pinks and greens and how the rich pops of color continue throughout the reception. Don’t miss this couple’s endearing wedding cake with a very sweet pennant flag cake topper, the exquisite orchid centerpieces or Jessica’s halter style lace Jim Hjelm gown. Enjoy!

The Ceremony
The ceremony was held at Matheson Hammock Park Beach. We organized it ourselves and had a friend officiate. It was very intimate and the setting was breathtaking.
The Reception
The reception was held just a few steps away at Red Fish Grill. The restaurant is located on the beach. It’s fun and tropical with lights around the palm trees, a great dance floor, and beautiful interior, as well. I was thrilled when we found this venue!
Jessica’s Dress Search
I always knew I wanted lace. I originally wanted a keyhole back, cap sleeves, and a sweetheart neckline. I never in a million years thought about a halter dress. When I put this on, though, to appease my family, we all loved it! It’s elegant and has a classic feel, while still appropriate for a beach wedding.

Stunning, Elegant, Fun
Why Jessica Decided to Sell Her Wedding Dress
I live in a studio apartment in NYC. Not only will I never wear it again, but there’s nowhere to keep it! It’s such a beautiful dress; I can’t let it sit in my closet. I want another bride to be able to feel the way I did in this dress on her wedding day.
