The Story of Alexandra and Anthony: St. Augustine Wedding Photographer

This is the wedding story of Alexandra and Anthony. I am using their grown-up names in this post because that is what they are now. Are they still that lovable boy and girl, Tony and Alex, that won the St. Augustine Record's Wedding Giveaway? Yes!! But beyond the details that gave them a free wedding, these two are wonderfully in love and that's not kid stuff.

They had been trying for quite some time to have a wedding. The Record's contest was the fourth they had entered, hoping they could have the wedding they dreamed of. Anthony has an eye disease that is diminishing his site and they did not want to wait a moment longer. The pair had been together since they really were kids at Bartram Trail High School and it always seemed obvious to them that someday they would get married. The time had come but the funds hadn't.

August 14 by far had to be one of the hottest days of the summer and all air movement had come to a halt and just hung there. But everyone was a trooper, bedecked in tuxedos and gowns, for the late afternoon wedding. The heat didn't seem to matter much to anyone really. They had waited a long time to see this day and nothing could beat it.

It was our extreme pleasure to be part of the Wedding Giveaway and part of the day Alexandra and Anthony started their new lives together. Congratulations!
