There are couples who radiate joy — and then there’s Cristina + Henry. Their wedding day at the Royal Poinciana Golf Club in Naples, Florida, was one of the most emotional, joyful celebrations we’ve ever had the honor of filming. From a tear-filled first look to the most thoughtful surprise gifts, their day was a reflection of a deep love rooted in connection, friendship, and forever-level enthusiasm.

A Dreamy First Look and Unforgettable Surprises

December in Naples gifted us perfect weather, setting the tone for a heartfelt outdoor wedding surrounded by lush greenery. But before the ceremony, their first look truly stole the show. As soon as they saw each other, tears and laughter flowed — the kind of emotional, ecstatic moment that makes filming weddings so meaningful.


But then came the surprises. She gave him the ultimate groom’s gift — his very own golf cart, custom and completely unexpected. His stunned reaction was priceless. In return, he gifted her an exquisite bracelet that she wore for the rest of the day, a timeless keepsake of their new beginning.


A Romantic Ceremony in the Heart of Naples

With the Royal Poinciana Golf Club as their backdrop, the couple exchanged personal, handwritten vows during an elegant outdoor ceremony. The color palette was effortlessly romantic — lush greenery paired with mix-matched patterned bridesmaid dresses — creating a sophisticated yet organic look. Every detail felt intentional, personal, and infused with love.

Their connection? Unmatched. From how he looked at her, to the way she laughed with him — this was a love that lit up every space they entered.


From Upstate NY to Naples, FL — A Love Story Years in the Making

Their story began through mutual friends during a fun weekend out, but it wasn’t until 2022, while attending a wedding in upstate New York, that they truly reconnected. That weekend sparked the next chapter of their lives — and eventually led to their own wedding in Naples, Florida, a place close to the bride’s heart thanks to her parents, who spend half the year there. Though they now call Pittsburgh home, it was only fitting to say “I do” surrounded by Florida’s beauty and warmth.
