One Ocean Resort and Spa | Atlantic Beach

One of my favorite things about shooting at One Ocean Resort and Spa is the variety of settings it offers. Beautiful rooms, lobby, custom artwork and of course the beach. Nikki and Mark were married on April Fools Day and it is the perfect holiday that shows off their carefree spirt. While the girls were upstairs getting ready in matching floral pajamas, the boys were hanging out on the beach playing volleyball. The boys weren’t the only ones relaxing before the ceremony. Goku, the couples newest family member and adorable puppy was sleeping on the bed. One of my favorite pictures of the day was a moment captured with Nikki and him on the bed. The ceremony was sweet and pure emotion. You could feel how much love and support Nikki and Mark had from their friends and family. I even got a little choked up when I saw Nikki’s mothers come down the aisle with tears of joy in her eyes. Their reception was no different. Toasts were made that brought both laughter and tears, nonstop dancing and of the best groom surprise ever. Mark amazed everyone with a choreographed routine set to a montage of Disney classics – it even included props. I can honestly say that this is a wedding I will never forget. Nikki and Mark are a wonderful couple and know that this is just the beginning.
