Corie and Thor flew in from Memphis, TN to have their wedding at the Sandpearl Resort on Clearwater Beach. While it was super hot out, we were spared from the rain which was a huge relief to Corie who had been following the weather on her iPhone all week.
It was great spending the day with them again, since the last time we saw them was at their engagment shoot in Ybor City a few weeks ago. Everything went very smoothly throughout the day thanks to a good group of vendors alongside us. Debbie with The Bride's Bouquet did an amazing job as usual with the florals, and Tanya and her team at the Sandpearl were really great to work with.
Here are a few of our favorites. First, the gorgeous Corie.
I have to say that I love the color of the bridesmaid's dresses. You can't go wrong with orange, right Thor?
Many of these fine gentlemen are from Tennessee, and from what I hear, a few rounds of Rocky Top were sung throughout the day. =)
LOVE this shot Chris got!
Corie and Thor chose to see each other before the ceremony to give themselves extra time for photos, and it also allowed them time to hang out with their guests during cocktail hour.
You can just feel the pure emotion between these two. =)
Sometimes when the sun is super bright out, a back alley can provide amazing light. Having gorgeous subjects helps too.
Corie and Thor both grew up playing soccer and it's something they enjoy together to this day. What a great idea to get some photos in their wedding clothes playing some one-on-one out on the beach?! This is a perfect example of how to add something truly personal to your wedding experience and images.
Since there was such a small group that attended the wedding, the toasts were that much more heartfelt and personal. Corie's bridesmaids took the opportunity to roast her and offer the groom some words of advice.
To end the night, they had their first dance on the beach after the sun had gone down, and the only light came from their 30 guests holding sparklers.
Corie and Thor, it has been great getting to know you guys, and thank you for pushing our creative boundaries. We hope you two have an amazing time on your honeymoon in Greece!

Do you know where she got that dress? It's incredible! My good friend is getting married and she is looking for something like that. :)
Beautiful!! Miss you guys...hope you are doing well. :)
Corie told me she got it at JCrew. Hope your friend finds the perfect dress! =)
Thank you so much! We've actually been looking at JCrew because of the simplicity of their dresses, but I didn't see that one. Thanks again. :)
