A Dreamy Tropical Wedding Aboard the Yacht StarShip Tampa
LeAnna and Shawn’s wedding aboard the Yacht StarShip Tampa was the epitome of love, joy, and a laid-back tropical vibe. After being together for seven years, this amazing couple knew exactly how to celebrate their love—with their closest friends and family, surrounded by the stunning views of downtown Tampa.
I first met LeAnna and Shawn on their big day, and let me tell you—they were the nicest people! Their warm smiles and calm demeanor set the tone for a day filled with heartfelt moments and pure happiness.
LeAnna and Shawn’s love story began on June 11, 2017, with their first date at Edison’s. Fast forward to an unforgettable proposal in a treehouse in Thailand, their journey together has been nothing short of adventurous and romantic. From traveling the world to gaming nights and gym sessions, their shared love for fun and exploration is inspiring.
The couple envisioned a tropical, relaxed wedding, and the Yacht StarShip was the perfect venue to bring this dream to life. With vibrant nautical details and the breezy charm of Tampa’s waterfront, everything felt intimate yet magical. Their ceremony took place on the top deck, offering breathtaking views of the city skyline as LeAnna and Shawn exchanged heartfelt vows.
From a photojournalistic photography perspective, capturing the moments of this day was a joy. From the groom’s emotional reaction as he saw LeAnna walk down the aisle to the laughter shared during the reception, every candid moment told a piece of their story. The vibrant colors of the tropical-inspired outfits added an extra layer of beauty to the photographs.
LeAnna and Shawn’s favorite part of the day? Being surrounded by their closest loved ones in such a unique setting. Guests mingled on deck, soaking in the Tampa breeze, while the couple stole a quiet moment to take in the scene together—a perfect reflection of their laid-back personalities.
As the evening unfolded, the Yacht StarShip truly became a vessel of joy. The reception was filled with laughter, heartfelt toasts, and an undeniable sense of love and community. It was clear that everyone there was thrilled to celebrate LeAnna and Shawn’s beautiful bond.
