Paola + Matthew Step Into The Limelight | Grand Hyatt Tampa Bay | Tampa, FL

✨ Love, Laughter, and Family at the Grand Hyatt Tampa Bay ✨

Limelight Photography recently had the honor of capturing a beautiful celebration at the Grand Hyatt Tampa Bay, where Matthew and his bride said "I do." Their love story began in May 2022 after meeting on Hinge, and they officially became a couple in July of that same year. A romantic proposal outside of St. Paul Catholic Church—a place that holds special meaning as it was where they first met her family and announced their pregnancy—set the stage for their next chapter together.

For their big day, Matthew and his bride wanted a venue that combined modern elegance with the beauty of the nearby beach, making the Grand Hyatt Tampa Bay the perfect destination for their diverse group of family and friends. As Tampa wedding photographers, we were thrilled to capture every heartfelt moment and the vibrant fusion of their Mexican-American cultures, creating memories that will last a lifetime. The couple incorporated their heritage with touches from Mexico 🇲🇽, adding a rich cultural element to their celebration.

Their wedding day was a true reflection of their personalities and the things they cherish most—family, faith, and shared traditions. From DIY thank-you notes and custom party favor gifts to special details like personalized cups and slippers designed in Mexico, every part of their celebration was thoughtfully curated. The couple's favorite moments included sharing their first dance with their baby boy, Matthew Jr., and introducing him to loved ones on the dance floor.

The energy throughout the night was pure joy, as guests were excited, ready to party, and completely comfortable, thanks to the welcoming atmosphere and fun props like sombreros, lights, and slippers. It was a beautiful day, made even more special by the talented vendors who helped bring their vision to life.
