If you’ve ever dreamed of a beachfront wedding with golden hour portraits and a laid-back, love-soaked vibe—this one’s for you. Jessica and Nick’s Palm Beach wedding at Boca Highland Beach Club was intimate, emotional, and full of personal touches that made it truly unforgettable. From her boho-inspired gown to their glowing sunset photos, every detail felt effortlessly romantic.

Getting Ready Should Feel Like a Party — And It Did

Jessica spent the morning with her girls at the Courtyard Delray Beach hotel, and honestly? It felt like a mini celebration in itself. Matching robes, champagne popping, music playing, and the kind of laughter that only happens when you’re with your day-ones. Natural light poured into the room (photographer dreams, hello), and every moment was just effortless and joyful.

Proof You Don’t Need 200 Guests to Have a Beautiful Wedding

This wasn’t a huge production — and that’s exactly what made it so beautiful. Jessica and Nick invited only their closest family and friends. The ceremony took place steps from the ocean, and the vibe was relaxed, emotional, and completely unfiltered. Just love, sand, and the occasional gust of ocean breeze to keep things interesting.

The Dress? Boho. Beachy. Totally Her.

Let’s talk fashion for a second — because Jessica’s off-the-shoulder, flowy gown was straight out of a Pinterest board. Paired with her soft waves and earthy bouquet, she looked like she just belonged on that beach. It was romantic without being fussy. Effortless but still a total moment.

Why You Should Always Sneak Away After the Ceremony

Right after the “I dos,” we made a quick escape down the beach — just the three of us. These in-between moments are my fave. No audience, no timeline, just the couple and the crazy realization that, yep, we’re actually married now. The light was starting to soften, the wind picked up her dress just right, and they got to soak in the first few quiet minutes as husband and wife. Genuinely, perfection.

Sunset Did What Sunset Does (She Delivered)

Jessica had one big wish: glowy golden hour portraits. And ohhh, did the light deliver. As the sun dropped lower, the sky turned into this cotton-candy haze and lit them up like a freaking Nicholas Sparks movie. This is what you get when you time things right — portraits that feel cinematic, warm, and wildly romantic without even trying.
