This couple was super fun! I don’t think we’ve encountered such good dancing at a wedding as we witnessed at this one. We started our day photographing Marriah and Yahya getting ready in separate rooms at Ponce De Leon Hotel in Downtown St. Petersburg. The rooms at the Ponce De Leon Hotel are really awesome, it’s a boutique hotel with sleek, cool, attractive rooms that are more like one bedroom apartments than hotel rooms. Marriah spent her time in the Hotel getting her hair done, while Yahya and the guys ironed their shirts and got dressed.

After Marriah’s hair was done and the guys were dressed we all headed to beautiful and historical Sunken Gardens in St. Pete, Florida, the same place we photographed Kristen and Sai’s wedding.
As soon as Marriah had her makeup done, put her dress on, and finished strapping up her shoes, grabbed her flowers and said a quick hi to her proud father we moved straight out to a beautiful open area in the gardens where her and Yahya were then married.

They were happily married and the sun was setting on the garden so we had to rush for the wedding portraits and got caught in the dark but made the best of it.
After some fun strolling the stunning pathways at Sunken Gardens with Marriah and Yahya for bridal portraits, we made our way into the reception hall, where the party began and was hosted by our good friend and Favorite DJ
Mr. Ronald Michel of Universal Music Entertainment He seriously knows how to get the party started and keep it going!
Now, our typical groom will spend more time being a wall flower trying not to dance than anything else, but Yahya was not our typical groom. Yahya kept the party going by dancing, laughing, and making sure that everyone was having a great time!
Yahya even performed a little dance for Marriah before he removed her garter.
This was one fun wedding! Sunken Gardens in St. Petersburg is THE place in for a garden themed wedding. The ambiance at the gardens cannot be beaten, and the facility hosts many great weddings. We hope to shoot here again soon.
Thank you so much, Marriah and Yahya, for giving us the opportunity to document your fantastic day!
