If you’ve ever dreamed of saying “I do” with your toes in the sand, the sound of waves in the background, and the Florida sun lighting up your perfect day, Amanda & Josh’s wedding at the Bilmar Beach Resort in Treasure Island, Florida will make your heart skip a beat.


From the very first look to the final dance under the tent, this wedding was everything a modern coastal celebration should be — timeless, heartfelt, and absolutely stunning.


A Morning Filled with Anticipation

Amanda’s day began in an ocean-view suite at Bilmar, where her lace wedding gown hung gracefully against the backdrop of the Gulf of Mexico. Every detail, from her delicate jewelry to her breathtaking bouquet of soft purples and lush greenery, whispered romance.

Her bridal prep wasn’t just about getting ready — it was about soaking in every quiet, joyful moment with her loved ones before stepping into the next chapter of her life.


The Perfect Beach Ceremony


Beach wedding ceremony with a couple at the altar, guests seated on white chairs. Blue sky, palm trees, and a joyful atmosphere.

The ceremony took place right on the sand, framed by palm trees, a wooden hexagon arch draped in flowing white fabric, and panoramic Gulf views. Guests gathered in rows of white chairs, their eyes fixed on the moment Amanda & Josh locked hands.

A Celebration Full of Personality


From cowboy hats to donut walls, Amanda & Josh’s reception was pure joy. Their first dance under the white tent drew smiles and happy tears, and the relaxed beach vibes made every guest feel right at home.
