The sun rose slowly, casting a warm glow over the turquoise blue waves lapping against the bright white sand. It was the morning of Danielle and Adam’s wedding day, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. With hearts for adventure and travel, Danielle and Adam decided to get married in Riviera Maya, Mexico. Eighty- four of their closest friends and family ventured to the Secrets Maroma Beach Riviera Cancun Resort to witness Danielle and Adam tie the knot and become husband and wife.
Before the walk down a beautiful sea shell lined aisle, Danielle and Adam decided upon a first look in an old abandoned mansion on the beach. A single tear trickling down his smile lined face, Adam pulled Danielle in for the biggest hug, whispering she looked more beautiful than he could have ever imagined. After their gorgeous sunset ceremony, Danielle and Adam danced the night away with all of their family and friends.
Danielle and Adam, words can’t describe how thankful I am to have been included in your INCREDIBLE day! It was so much fun getting to know you both and a true honor to witness you committing to spend your lives together in such a beautiful place. Enjoy a few of my favorite photos from your Secrets Maroma Beach wedding below!





Danielle got ready in the honeymoon suite with her mom and her sister. Could her all lace Maggie Sottero gown be any more stunning?!



A big thanks to Mekina Saylor for coming along to help me document Danielle and Adam’s beautiful day! I love these relaxed photos she captured of Adam, his dad, and his best man getting ready.




Seriously Danielle…you look BREATHTAKING!!!


There is just something so romantic about a first look in an abandoned mansion.








While I was capturing intimate photos of Danielle and Adam dancing in the alcove of this grand staircase, Mekina was capturing romantic photos from above.





This stolen kiss in front of such a gorgeous scene might be one of my favorite moments.



LOVE.



Seeing each other before the ceremony didn’t stop Adam from giving Danielle the sweetest look as her dad walked her down the aisle.





HAPPILY MARRIED!!!



Maybe one of the coolest wedding parties ever…you guys were seriously AWESOME!

Adam broke tradition and even had “groomswomen”. 🙂

Lovely ladies.



Most people in the wedding party arrived a few days before the wedding. They spent so much time on these bar swings, a photo under this adorable beach hut was a must!




Cocktail hour took place by the pool. It made the perfect spot to relax before heading into the reception!


Mekina and I had to get at least one photo together! Thank you again for coming along to help me capture Danielle and Adam’s beautiful day!


The reception took place under palm trees and twinkly lights.







After sharing their first dance to Mirrors, Danielle and Adam danced the night away!












Thank you again Danielle and Adam for giving me the opportunity to be a part of your incredible Secrets Maroma Beach wedding in Riviera Maya, Mexico. I wish you both endless amounts of happiness in the years to come!
Very beautiful location, couple and photos!
I love all of these! Beautiful post, Amy! So many special memories just flowing back! I love it!
I love every single photo!!! These are amazing Amy!! 🙂
[…] This week I’ve been missing Mexico terribly. Today, I’d like to be transported back to those white sand beaches, the warm sun shining on my face, and the oh so perfect couple I had the honor of capturing on their wedding day. Maybe it was the abandoned mansion that made this wedding so romantic, or maybe it was just the fact that Danielle and Adam had a 5 day love fest with their closest friends and family at Secrets Maroma Beach Riviera Cancun Resort, but it was simply perfect. Thank you, Amy Rizzuto for inviting me to document such a special time, I couldn’t have imagined a better Mexico experience. More of this gorgeous couple can be seen on Amy’s blog post here. […]
