Dreamy Dreams Playa Mujeres Wedding. Brittany + Daniel

Kismet was in the stars in 2017 when Brittany & Daniel first met at PS 14​, while both working there​. However  their love story didn’t take off until ​later that year, in Decembe​r. Rumor has it Daniel went to the company Christmas party because he’d heard Brittany was going to be there. They spent the whole party talking only to each other, laughing and dancing the night away.

The new year started with Brittany bringing Daniel coffee every morning, and his taking her out to lunch every afternoon. In March they went on their first “official date” and have been inseparable ever since. They both love experiencing new adventures together, and on their first vacation together, took a road trip to Ocean City, Maryland. They got stuck in traffic for 12 hours, and spent the whole car ride talking, laughing and really getting to know each other. They had the best time in Ocean City, and said “I love you” for the first time on that trip.

Wanting to celebrate their forever love in a way that was as special as their story, they chose a dream destination wedding in Mexico’s romantic Riviera Maya, at Dreams Playa Mujeres. Set against the turquoise waters of the Caribbean and surrounded by the love of their closest friends and family, this day was a true celebration of love, laughter, and unforgettable lifelong memories.

The day began with quiet, joyful anticipation as Brittany got ready with her family and bridesmaids in the stunning bridal suite, bathed in soft natural light. Her​ beautiful gown was complemented by a billowing veil and breathtaking bouquet of white orchids and roses​.

Meanwhile, Daniel​ and his entourage shared a few beverages while kibitzing, clowning for the cameras and getting dressed and ready for the Big Day ahead. 

Brittany’s first look with her Dad was one of the most emotional moments of the day—tucked away in a private garden space, Brittany’s Dad broke right down when he saw his baby girl all dressed up as a beautiful bride for the first time. There would be more happy tears throughout the day, as heartfelt emotions spilled out over smiling faces. It was intimate, authentic, and utterly beautiful.

Th​e ceremony, held on the pristine white sand beach, felt like a scene from a fairytale. With waves crashing in the background and a cooling breeze wafting over them, Brittany and Daniel exchanged ​forever vows that left everyone misty-eyed.

Golden hour gifted us with the dreamiest light for couples’ portraits. These two were naturals in front of the camera—playful, in love, and completely present with each other. We explored the beach and the lush pathways winding through the jungle gardens around the resort, capturing every genuine moment.

As the sun dipped below the horizon, the reception kicked off in full celebration mode. Under the starlit sky, twinkling string lights reflected off the glass dance floor – that lit up with changing colours. Their romantic first dance was accented with fireworks spouting high around the dancefloor. Beverages flowed as guests enjoyed delicious cuisine and applauded emotional toasts​. Groovy music had the guests on their feet, filling the dance floor with epic moves all night long. 

Brittany and Daniel—thank you for trusting me to capture your love story. Your day was filled with warmth, joy, and so many unforgettable moments. It was an honor to document every detail.
