genny & cozart - october 20, 2007

genny & cozart were married at the bilmar beach resort in treasure island, florida. they chose a great location with an ocean backdrop for their beach wedding. genny is from minnesota, and many of her family and friends are from here, too, so we had a wonderful time travelling with them. They made us feel like we were part of the family, too. let's start off with some gorgeous sunset portraits of the happy couple:

the groomsmen. you gotta love a wedding party where flip-flops and bare feet are part of the wardrobe:



i love the pink and green combination, and everyone got starfish as their place holders:

genny's dress is one of the most incredible i have ever seen. it was custom-designed by a mutual friend, the amazingly gifted and talented designer scott nylund, who works with celebrities and fashionistas in nyc.


cozart spent part of the morning constructing the arbor for the ceremony:
