Jamaica Destination Wedding - Next Day Catamaran Cruise

After how amazing Sharon and Andrew’s Sandal’s Ochi Resort Jamaica Destination wedding was yesterday, I was so excited to get to photograph their next day catamaran cruise as well! This entire wedding group was so much fun to work with! I love that this sweet bride and groom thought to book a fun excursion for all of their guests and invited me to come along to photograph it for them.

Destination weddings are so much more than just the wedding day. It’s an entire vacation that the bride and groom get to spend with their closest friends and family celebrating their love. That’s why, in my destination wedding packages, I always offer a complimentary day before or next day session, or I offer to photograph a fun event or excursion that the couple has planned for their guests. It’s such a fun way for the couple to have more photos in their destination wedding location besides just their wedding photos. In Sharon and Andrew’s case, they were fortunate enough to have 60 friends and family members join them in Jamaica for their destination wedding, and most of them came on the catamaran cruise as well!

I’ve been on catamaran cruises before, but this one was super fun for multiple reasons. The crew really knew how to throw a dance party, and the guests loved learning some new Jamaican dance moves. Plus there was a fun surprise when we got to watch a dolphin show just off the coast of downtown Ocho Rios. None of the gusts had any idea that was going to happen! And just as the sun was setting, the crew opened up the water slide for everyone to jump in the water if they wanted to. It was so beautiful tp watch the sun set over the mountains as we cruised back to the resort.

Sharon and Andrew, you two were a blast to work with and photograph! I can’t wait to finish editing your full wedding and next-day gallery! In the mean time, enjoy these sneak peaks from your catamaran sunset cruise!
