Rum Point Wedding photographed by Melissa Wolfe

Adam and Laura left the winter behind in Calgary, Canada to celebrate their Caribbean destination wedding in Grand Cayman. They decided on a beautiful Rum Point Wedding right by the water. 

The couple originally met while they were both students at University of Toronto. They had the same lifeguarding shift at the varsity pool, and spent most of the time on deck talking about all of the things they had in common, mostly their love for the outdoors and for the water.

Laura is no stranger to the Cayman Islands. She tells us: “My parents moved to Grand Cayman when I was 5 years old. Growing up on the island is a big part of what makes me who I am today. We wanted to share the wonders of Grand Cayman with close family and friends. We also wanted to get married barefoot with our feet in the sand, so Rum Point fit the bill perfectly.”

Laura continues: “Melissa used her photography expertise to capture photos with gorgeous backgrounds and framing. She really was able to capture the feel of the day. She was just like one of the family, and even helped me zip up my dress (crisis averted!). She was really flexible, and when we wanted to do a “first look” at Pedro St. James, she made it happen. It was a fantastic day and she really made us all feel comfortable in front of the camera.”
