Patty and Jeff

Jeff and his wife Patty visit their home on St. Croix several months out of the year. They love it here! This trip had a special surprise in store for Patty - a vow renewal and celebration with friends!

Jeff's son suggested they surprise Patty with a beachside vow renewal at their 'home away from home.' Telling her we were doing a regular beach family session got her in the proper clothing and to the beach on time!

What a brilliant idea! And with Michelle Marquis helping Jeff bring the event together, it was an absolute smash hit.

Patty came to the beach expecting to see just me and my cameras and was delighted to find a whole event waiting for her.

Noel Wynter filled the fluffy stormy skies with enchanting steel pan music. Charlene Springer was there to officiate under an adorable wedding arch, flanked by their son and close friends. All there to celebrate Patty, Jeff and their life together... it was magical - there was even a rainbow!
