Sunshine After the Storm: Alyssa & Joseph’s January Florida Beach Wedding

Alyssa and Joseph’s January Florida beach wedding was a beautiful reminder that even unpredictable weather can lead to the most magical moments. After a cloudy morning and a quick storm passed through, the skies cleared and warm sunshine filled the beach just in time for their ceremony. Alyssa walked down the aisle to an instrumental version of Dandelions, her makeup impressive and impeccable—no surprise, as she is a professional makeup artist herself. With every detail perfectly in place, all the couple had to do was show up and be present. Guests were already seated as Joseph stood facing the water, taking in the ocean view, until he turned around to see Alyssa walking down the aisle—an intimate, emotional moment that made their Florida beach wedding truly unforgettable.

A Few Quick Tips for a Successful Beach Wedding

• Be flexible with your timeline. Beach weather can change quickly, and a little patience can make all the difference—sometimes even a 30-minute shift can lead to perfect conditions.

• Keep a guest update list. Have a list of guests you can quickly notify if the ceremony time or exact location changes due to weather or tides.

• Schedule makeup early. Have your makeup done at least a few hours before the ceremony. This allows time for touch-ups, weather delays, and keeps everything stress-free.

• Small time shifts can help. Even adjusting your ceremony by 30 minutes can give you better light, calmer wind, or clearer skies.

• Bring clear umbrellas. Just in case! They’re practical, photograph beautifully, and keep the coastal vibe intact.
