South Africa meets South Georgia in NY : their peacock themed wedding at The Ribault Club by LanierStar Photography

Eye Candy warning: This is a photo filled post, so I am going to keep words to a minimum.  If you love peacocks, turquoise and brown prepare for eye candy overload.  This wedding was beautiful!

The first time I met Kelly and her sister Amy I knew I HAD to photograph this wedding.  First off I felt like I had met up with long lost friends, gabbing the afternoon away, with so much in common.  When I found out Kelly is a designer who was planning tons of fabulous details in her wedding I was smitten.  Upon finding out that said details involved the use of peacock feathers, turquoise blue and brown I was completely in love.

Imran and Kelly met and live in New York, NY, but had their wedding near Kelly’s family.  The ceremony and reception was held at The Ribault Club on Fort George Island, FL.  There were many fabulous vendors, so please check out the links at the end of the post.

I just adore you, your spirit, and obviously your creativity! I am so glad that such a wonderful occasion allowed us to meet. And your right, you, Amy, and I in one room equals laughter, smiling our faces off, and pure entertainment! We sure could talk for hours! Look out! The photos are stunning! Brilliant work! Kelly

11/04/2009 - 2:21 AM Amy - Love it! All of it, of course the touches of peacock feathers and colors throughout are an instant fav of mine. Not sure what it is about them but this couple looks so different, they need a reality show or something. Lovely girl!

11/04/2009 - 7:08 PM Steven Jacobson - Do Good DJs - Hey Kelly and Irman! Thanks so much for letting us be apart of your wonderful wedding. My favorite part was when all the new family danced to the Punjabi music. I wished i had a camera at that point, with all the smiles, dancing-hand gestures, and good feelings....all reflecting the spirit of your wedding.

11/04/2009 - 10:24 PM Lindsay - Kelly, you look amazing and I love your dress. Your reception looks so beautiful!

11/05/2009 - 11:37 PM Allison V - Fabulous! @ Kristen....Thanks so much for posting these amazing photos. My family and I were unable to attend the wedding. It's so wonderful to enjoy Kelly and Imran's day from a distance in our absence. @ Kelly...love the colors you chose and all the details throughout the decor. All your design work must be amazing!

11/07/2009 - 11:09 PM marie boyett - I could look at these everyday. Wait! I am looking at them everyday....sometimes more than once. There's still an emotional high looming in the air that I feel will last a good long time. Hugs to everyone..again and again and again.
