I recently was asked to photograph a vow renewal at the Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman. Not an unusal request as many couples love to renew their vows on our stunning beaches in Grand Cayman. I was not given a lot of information from the hotel and I was a little surprised by that. Once I arrived at the hotel, I immediately understood why! I was to become part of a surprise. William wanted to surprise his wife of 30 years, Mary, with a vow renewal on their anniversary.
William was in Grand Cayman on a business conference and brought his family along to enjoy a few days in the sun. Before the trip he has plotted with this son and two daughters to surprise his wife with a vow renewal on the beach inviting a few dear friends to attend.
There we were waiting for Mary and her children to come to the beach. We were all a little confused seeing that Mary was wearing a veil, considering she didn’t know anything about the surprise.
Everyone was astonished to find out Mary was actually surprising Williams as well! Their kids knew all along and helped keeping it a secret. I have to admit, I got a bit teary eyed during the ceremony. It was just beautiful!!
