Naples, Florida Wedding at La Playa Beach and Golf Resort by Clane Gessel Photography

Even though Amber and Luke exchanged vows in the Fall, you can still see the love and warmth permeate throughout this ceremony.  Being in Naples, Florida didn’t hurt either.  Peacock feathers and jewel tone purple bridesmaid dresses complimented the bride’s theme as well as the picture perfect sunset.  Dip your toes into the water with this celebration courtesy of Clane Gessel Photography.

We had three different types:  During the ceromony we had a string quartet which made it romantic.  During appetizers we had a pianist and that made it chill.  And finally a DJ for dancing.
