Trying to evoke the feeling of summer afternoons spent beachside in the California sun, this styled shoot at Santa Cruz’s Dream Inn, showcases an effortless romantic tropical vibe. From ruffled tuxedo shirts, ice cream rose cocktails, bike rides and lush tropical florals, touches of vintage flare meet modern minimalism to create a truly inspirational “I do” kind of day with the cutest married couple (real couple) out there.
