There's something magical about strolling through the historic streets of Olomouc, a hidden gem in the heart of the Czech Republic. As we set out for a family photo session with Zuzi, Radek, and their two kids Klaudia and Oscar, the city's rich history seemed to greet us at every corner. Olomouc, known for its baroque architecture, cobblestone streets, and timeless charm, provided the perfect backdrop for capturing the essence of this wonderful family.
What made this session even more special was knowing that Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart himself once walked these very streets. In 1767, young Mozart lived here for a short time, seeking refuge from a smallpox outbreak in Vienna. It’s said that his time in Olomouc helped shape his creative genius. Walking through the same alleys and squares where Mozart might have played as a child added an extra layer of wonder to the day.
Zuzi and Radek, along with their kids, brought so much joy and energy to the session. We wandered through the old town, starting near the Holy Trinity Column, an awe-inspiring UNESCO monument that towers over the main square. The children’s laughter filled the air as they ran ahead, marveling at the fountains and colorful facades that lined the streets.
One of the most memorable moments was when we paused by the grand St. Wenceslas Cathedral, a place that echoes centuries of history. The family gathered together for a few candid shots, surrounded by the towering spires and ancient stonework. The mix of modern family life with the timeless setting created a beautiful contrast in every frame.
As we made our way through the winding streets, the light softened, casting a warm glow over the city. We captured spontaneous moments—playful gestures, shared smiles, and quiet glances—each framed by Olomouc’s historic charm.
This session was not just about taking photos; it was about capturing memories in a place where history and modern life coexist so seamlessly. Olomouc, with its storied past and vibrant present, provided the perfect setting for celebrating the beauty of family and the timelessness of togetherness.

We loved being part of Liz and Andy's beautiful dreamy Key West wedding at Audubon House that started in rented Airbnb near Flamingo Crossing Ice cream where Liz and Andy had a small ice cream break and then we took a trolley for "Photo Safari" around town for more fun wedding pictures.

Let me introduce you to the fresh newlyweds Victoria and Ryan!!

Warm tropical breezes, rolling ocean vistas and a kiss to seal it all under a hazy pink sunset that was Victoria and Ryan's wedding day reception at Southernmost Beach Resort.

We changed locations 3 times from Sunrise Suites to Saint's Mary church for the ceremony to Southernmost Beach Resort for the rest of the celebration. Victoria also booked a second photographer to capture the boys getting ready and the ceremony so we ended up with almost 900 wedding photos, too many to share in this blog, but let me share just a few. 

As I always do, I asked Victoria a couple of questions:

1. How did you meet, who proposed and how?
We met during a blizzard, in our home town when there is a big snow storm everyone goes to one particular bar so we both ended up there. Ryan proposed after dinner as we were walking back on the beach to my parents shore house.

2. Why wedding at Southernmost Beach Resort? Did Covid bring some challenges for you?
Key West was the first place Ryan and I vacationed together and we completely fell in love with it. We knew we wanted to have a reception on the beach and we we looked out the Southernmost Beach resort and it was a no brainer!
We definitely had some challenges with Covid as our original date, April 4 2020, was cancelled but we knew it was something we couldn’t control and we just had to keep moving and do what we felt was the next right thing.

3. What was your inspiration for your wedding?
We are both beach people and just wanted to feel relaxed and have fun!

4. What were your favorite moments at the wedding?
Walking down the aisle at Saint's Mary Church and seeing Ryan surrounded by our friends and family, also dancing all night with such an amazing scenery.

5. What advice could you give to other brides?
Just have fun with it. You can’t control everything and trying to will end up taking the fun out of it.

6. What are your future plans? Honeymoon?
Hopefully we will be able to travel to Europe in the near future but if not we are more than happy to head down to the shore for the summer!

7. Who were your vendors on your wedding day?
Romi was our amazing Key West wedding photographer. The Dan Harvey Band played at our wedding they were awesome!
Aisle Style did our hair and makeup, they were great!

Merryl and Charles said their "I do's" but never had their wedding photos taken.
When Merryl booked me for an April photography session in beautiful Isla Bella Resort we had to reschedule due to  worldwide Coronavirus outbreak. Finally we made things happen right when this beautiful Florida Keys beach resort (perfect for weddings) opened up in beginning of June again. Modern luxury oceanfront resort was quiet, pristine clean and oh so beautiful. 
​Congratulations Merryl and Charles, be well!!

Karen and Carter had a beautiful beach wedding at Key West Yacht Club on Stock Island, and besides having the property completely just for themselves, the sunset that day was absolutely stunning. 
We couldn't be happier as the stunning background created the perfect backdrop for our pictures!
Congratulations Karen and Carter, we loved being part of your special day!

How did you meet, who proposed and how?
Carter and I met 16 years ago, in 2004, through a mutual friend. We were friends until 2014 when our friendship blossomed into romance. We didn't have a grand proposal but mutually decided that marriage was the right choice for us. 

Why wedding at Key West Yacht Club, what did you liked the most about the venue?
We loved Key West Yacht Club right away. The harbor is gorgeous and gives the right amount of beach feel while still keeping it elegant for a wedding. It is actually the only wedding venue that we looked at in person. The top feature for me was the privacy. 

What was your inspiration for your wedding?
Bohemian Chic

Describe some of your favorite moments at the wedding?
It's difficult to pick one moment because I loved all of it. Walking down the aisle with my parents and seeing Carter smiling at me is probably my favorite visual memory.

What would be an advice to other brides from you?
Be present in the moment and enjoy all of it! From the first moment of planning to the very last farewell. 

What made you choose Wedding By Romi as your photographer?
Her stellar portfolio and attention to detail. She tries to bring out what's beautiful and unique to each couple.

What are your future plans? Honeymoon? If you had a honeymoon, tell me what you loved the most?
We haven't decided where or when to take our honeymoon yet, but hopefully we will be able to take one in the next couple years.

Loryn and Danny got married at beautiful Casa Marina Resort with closest family and friends, fun fact...and it was also Loryn's B-day so they had more reasons to celebrate until late night hours. We were happy to be a part of such fun day and meeting both of your families. 

How did you meet, who proposed and how?
We first met in college sophomore year and started dating shortly after so I guess you could call us college sweethearts!  We had been together for almost 10 years before Danny proposed!  He proposed on his birthday and I should have known something was up because he made his own birthday dinner reservation because it was so much unlike Danny. After dinner, it was such a nice night out that I wanted to walk home from the restaurant not knowing that apparently, he had the engagement ring in his shoe!  He kept trying to order an uber to the point where I was actually frustrated, he didn’t want to walk with me!  I finally agreed to an uber and when we got home our door was open which was odd and as I open the door – the entire apartment is decorated with roses and pictures of us and there is a sign asking if I will marry him.  When I turned around he was down on one knee proposing.  It was such a great surprise that I couldn’t believe I didn’t see coming!! His mom and sister were hiding in our bedroom and had decorated the apartment while we were gone.  After I said yes, our dog came running out the bedroom in a wedding dress costume for dogs.  It was perfect! 

Why wedding at Casa Marina? ​
We had actually never stayed at the Casa Marina, but had been to Key West a few times and I remember walking past the venue thinking how beautiful and grand it looked.  I knew after our first trip to Key West that I wanted to get married there and walking past the Casa Marina pretty much sold the deal. 

What was your inspiration for the wedding?
I wanted to keep our wedding more on the simple side and didn’t want anything too extravagant.  We are both pretty laid-back people so I went with mostly neutral colors including whites, greens, champagne, etc.  Everything turned out so beautiful especially with the ocean and Casa Marina as our backdrop!

Describe some of your favorite moments at the wedding.
ALL OF IT.  From the moment I got up until the moment I went to sleep – the entire day was so special.  There is really no better feeling in the world then having all your loved ones with you to celebrate your special day.  From getting ready with my bridesmaids to our first look to the actual ceremony to our first dance to taking the conch train to Duval Street after the reception – it was all great!  Also, fun fact – we got married on my birthday so during the reception, my MOH brought a cake out and everyone sang happy birthday!  I enjoyed every minute of it and people aren’t lying when they say the day fly’s’ by so enjoy every moment of it.  It was the most magical and best day of my life!  

What would be an advice to other brides from you.
Don’t overthink and stress yourself out!  Trust the vendors you hired to do their job and trust that everything will work itself out.  Of course, not everything is going to go according to plan but that’s okay.  Don’t forget what the day is really about which is marrying your best friend and be sure to make an effort to mingle with all of your guests – thanking them for coming!  

 
What are your future plans? Honeymoon?
Because we were in Key West for a little over a week, we decided to wait on our honeymoon and instead are going to take a trip on our anniversary.  We are thinking New Zealand but right now we are just enjoying being married and what’s to come next!
