Intimate Sandbridge Beach Wedding | Josh & Emily

Josh and Emily’s intimate wedding in Sandbridge Beach, Virginia, was the perfect mix of relaxed and meaningful. With just a small group of loved ones and the Atlantic Ocean as their backdrop, the couple embraced a beautifully simple celebration filled with emotion, laughter, and sunshine.

An Easygoing Day by the Ocean

The morning was peaceful as both Josh and Emily got ready in a beachfront rental. Their excitement was evident, and the quiet anticipation made for touching getting-ready photos. Emily wore a breezy, elegant gown that matched the beach vibe, and Josh looked relaxed but polished in a tailored suit.

Ceremony with Ocean Views

The ceremony took place directly on the sand with crashing waves behind them and soft clouds overhead. It was a heartfelt moment—full of joy, tears, and the sounds of the sea. The couple’s vows were deeply personal, and there wasn’t a dry eye in sight.

Candid Portraits and a Cozy Celebration

After the ceremony, we explored the beach for portraits. The golden-hour light cast a beautiful glow, giving the photos a dreamy, romantic feel. Every glance and smile between Josh and Emily was natural and full of love. The reception that followed was simple but meaningful, with a casual meal and intimate toasts from their closest friends and family.
