Originally we had no intentions of jumping into the pool at any time throughout the night. But after a couple of drinks and a few side bets, there was no stopping the bride from her grand entrance into the water! The best part was that within a few minutes of me jumping into the pool there was at least 10 others in there with me! In general mob mentality, we began chanting the names of people on the side lines until, they too, took the plunge! We had nearly ALL of our guests in the pool including our wedding planner and hotel owner, Alina!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-570382\" src=\"https:\/\/images.junebugweddings.com\/2f\/b1\/2fb10d44e47fee09.jpg\" alt=\"Tropical-Belize-Wedding-at-Seaside-Cabanas-Hotel-Nicole-Ashley-Photography-432\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-570383\" src=\"https:\/\/images.junebugweddings.com\/b0\/af\/b0af1f749d120cee.jpg\" alt=\"Tropical-Belize-Wedding-at-Seaside-Cabanas-Hotel-Nicole-Ashley-Photography-652\" width=\"600\" height=\"900\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-570384\" src=\"https:\/\/images.junebugweddings.com\/e3\/eb\/e3eb23d35088e598.jpg\" alt=\"Tropical-Belize-Wedding-at-Seaside-Cabanas-Hotel-Nicole-Ashley-Photography-658\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-570385\" src=\"https:\/\/images.junebugweddings.com\/bf\/04\/bf0434d900ed7349.jpg\" alt=\"Tropical-Belize-Wedding-at-Seaside-Cabanas-Hotel-Nicole-Ashley-Photography-659\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-570386\" src=\"https:\/\/images.junebugweddings.com\/ee\/00\/ee00d16a3a39477e.jpg\" alt=\"Tropical-Belize-Wedding-at-Seaside-Cabanas-Hotel-Nicole-Ashley-Photography-660\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-570387\" src=\"https:\/\/images.junebugweddings.com\/f4\/3f\/f43fe8ac854f51f1.jpg\" alt=\"Tropical-Belize-Wedding-at-Seaside-Cabanas-Hotel-Nicole-Ashley-Photography-661\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-570388\" src=\"https:\/\/images.junebugweddings.com\/9e\/a7\/9ea7a7314f066498.jpg\" alt=\"Tropical-Belize-Wedding-at-Seaside-Cabanas-Hotel-Nicole-Ashley-Photography-662\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-570389\" src=\"https:\/\/images.junebugweddings.com\/99\/16\/9916460383f6cd8b.jpg\" alt=\"Tropical-Belize-Wedding-at-Seaside-Cabanas-Hotel-Nicole-Ashley-Photography-664\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-570391\" src=\"https:\/\/images.junebugweddings.com\/48\/43\/4843d97fa017e769.jpg\" alt=\"Tropical-Belize-Wedding-at-Seaside-Cabanas-Hotel-Nicole-Ashley-Photography-666\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"goldbox\"><em>Long before we started planning a wedding I knew I wanted Nicole Ashley Photography to be our wedding photographer. I had been following her on social media for a couple of years and with every blog post she completely took my breath away. And sure enough, our wedding photos were nothing short of spectacular. Not only is her work incredible, Nicole is a true professional who never quit working the entire time on the island. She searched out different areas to shoot on the island, checked lighting at different times throughout the day, and even arranged for private photos to be taken at a closed restaurant for our &lsquo;Love the Dress&rsquo; session. On top of it all, she has such a lovely personality that it can put any photography jitters to rest and our entire wedding party was completely relaxed throughout the entire process.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-570392\" src=\"https:\/\/images.junebugweddings.com\/30\/f2\/30f2d348a2f827b3.jpg\" alt=\"Tropical-Belize-Wedding-at-Seaside-Cabanas-Hotel-Nicole-Ashley-Photography-667\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-570393\" src=\"https:\/\/images.junebugweddings.com\/f2\/b1\/f2b12880bdee139e.jpg\" alt=\"Tropical-Belize-Wedding-at-Seaside-Cabanas-Hotel-Nicole-Ashley-Photography-669\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-570394\" src=\"https:\/\/images.junebugweddings.com\/1b\/ab\/1babcbca46c74e21.jpg\" alt=\"Tropical-Belize-Wedding-at-Seaside-Cabanas-Hotel-Nicole-Ashley-Photography-702\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-570395\" src=\"https:\/\/images.junebugweddings.com\/ff\/7f\/ff7ffcdccee752d2.jpg\" alt=\"Tropical-Belize-Wedding-at-Seaside-Cabanas-Hotel-Nicole-Ashley-Photography-703\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"goldbox\">\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\"><em>The Wedding Team:<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Photography &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nicoleashley.ca\/\">Nicole Ashley Photography<\/a><br>\nCeremony Venue &ndash;&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.seasidecabanas.com\/\">Seaside Cabanas Hotel<\/a><br>\nReception Venue &ndash;&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.islandmagicbelize.com\/\">Island Magic Belize<\/a><br>\nHair &amp; Makeup Styling&nbsp;&ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/purplepassionbeautystudio.com\/\">Purple Passion Beauty Studio<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Congrats to Michelle and Jesse on their tropical Belize wedding!
