A chose the title "Real Wedding Turks and Caicos" as my beautiful couple look like models that belong in the editorial spread of a wedding magazine. They are my favorite kind of "celebrities": ordinary people that became extraordinary in one of the most special day of their lives. Extraordinary for each other, extraordinary for family and friends, extraordinary for me.
I nicknamed Angie and Chris my "end of the year present": photographing them has been a real pleasure, stunning on the outside and sweet and caring on the inside.
'What would you do if your airline lost all your luggage (including your wedding dress, veil and your fiancé's wedding suit), and you only had one day and no bridal or lingerie shops to replace these precious items? Tanya and Jeremy embraced the situation with an energetic team spirit - it didn't phase them in the least: They found a linen shirt, had it altered by a local speaking tailor the night before the wedding (driven there by another very kind local woman who sold them the shirt), found a white dress and white 'underwear' (bikinis had to suffice) for the ceremony on the morning of the wedding, had a local artist hand make Tanya's jewellery for free to borrow for the wedding, hired a makeshift veil from a florist, all while Diane Greever (from Island Harmony), their astute and thoroughly organised wedding planner, ensuring that everything else went to plan. The result: Perfection !!
It was a true celebration of love, friendship and teamwork.' Â - Â Tanya, the bride.
