Shawna & Josh's Beach-Front Wedding At The Conrad Fort Lauderdale

By Ryan Mayiras · August 21, 2026 · 1 min read
Shawna & Josh's Beach-Front Wedding At The Conrad Fort Lauderdale

Shawna and Josh's wedding at the Conrad Fort Lauderdale Beach unfolded with the Atlantic as a backdrop, a full day captured by one coordinated photo and video team, from a quiet morning getting ready to the last dance.

A Long Weekend At The Beach

Shawna and Josh wanted their wedding to feel like a long weekend at the beach, because that's how their friends and family already saw them. They said their vows at the Conrad Fort Lauderdale Beach, with the ocean behind them and a September sky that cooperated all day.

The day moved from a quiet morning getting ready to a ceremony with the water in the background, to a reception that carried deep into the evening. One photo and video team covered it all, so the film and the gallery tell the same story, from first look to last dance.

The Full Wedding

The complete wedding lives on our site, 1,200+ images, all preserved the way the day happened:
