A Beachfront Affair: Mackenzie & Thomas Keough's NYE Wedding Extravaganza on Englewood Beach


As a Sarasota wedding photographer, New Year's Eve took on a magical twist as I had the pleasure of capturing Mackenzie & Thomas Keough's wedding at their beach house on Englewood Beach. The stunning waterfront celebration was a unique and enchanting way to bid farewell to the old year and welcome the new.

Mackenzie and Thomas chose the picturesque setting of Englewood Beach to declare their love, and as a Sarasota wedding photographer, I couldn't have asked for a more mesmerizing backdrop. The private beach house, bathed in the golden hues of the setting sun, set the stage for a celebration that would be etched in the couple's hearts forever.

The house itself, decorated by the talented teams at Cora Marie Events, Puff and Stuff Catering, and So Staged Events, transformed into a haven of elegance and coastal charm. Every detail, from the ceremony setup to the reception area, reflected Mackenzie and Thomas's vision, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere for their loved ones.

Beneva Flowers added a touch of floral enchantment with breathtaking arrangements that adorned the bride and groom's attire. The florals beautifully complemented the coastal surroundings, adding a burst of color to the intimate ceremony held on the shores of Englewood Beach.

Puff n Stuff Catering ensured that the culinary experience was nothing short of extraordinary. From delectable hors d'oeuvres to the main course, every bite was a celebration of flavors that captivated the senses. The catering company's attention to detail was evident, adding a touch of gastronomic delight to the coastal celebration.

The festivities extended beyond the sandy shores with a lineup of entertainment that included fireworks, a crackling fire pit, and even a putt-putt golf course. As the clock ticked towards midnight, the skies lit up, marking not just the end of the year but the beginning of Mackenzie and Thomas's lifelong journey together.

Englewood Beach became the canvas for Mackenzie & Thomas Keough's love story, and as a Sarasota wedding photographer, I was honored to capture the moments that made this New Year's Eve celebration truly extraordinary. The private beach house will forever hold the memories of this beachfront affair, where two souls embraced love against the backdrop of Sarasota's coastal magic, bidding adieu to the old year and stepping into a new chapter of their lives.
