Opal Sands Wedding | Erin and Gordon | Clearwater, Florida

Erin and Gordon’s Opal Sands wedding in Clearwater was nothing short of beautiful! We got lucky with beautiful weather throughout the day, allowing Erin, Gordon and their guests to fully take in the beauty of one of Florida’s most popular beaches. Guests were welcomed by the resort’s professional staff, with its modern architecture seamlessly blending with the natural beauty of Clearwater Beach.

The ceremony took place on the Resort’s terrace overlooking the ocean with a stunning floral arch by Iza’s Flowers. As Erin and Gordon shared their vows and shared their first kiss as husband and wife, sailboats passed by in the background, creating a beautiful backdrop for the occasion!

As the sun began to set, guests moved into the elegantly decorated ballroom while we took Erin and Gordon out to the beach for a few sunset portraits – and boy are they some of our favorites! The evening progressed with lively music and dancing, with the talents of Grant Hemond & Associates keeping the energy high. Meanwhile, Erin and Gordon’s friends and family celebrated late into the night.

Erin and Gordon,

Thank you for choosing us to photograph your beautiful wedding day! It has been a joy working with you both throughout your engagement and on your wedding day. We can’t wait to see where married life takes you!

With Love,
Matlock and Kelly
