Don Cesar Wedding – St. Pete Beach – Lea + Brandon

January 8, 2019 ·

The Don Cesar or “Pink Palace” on St. Pete Beach has always been one of the most beautiful places to me. It’s majestic and can be seen for miles and miles. Honestly, it’s what wedding dreams are made of. The interior is equally as impressive as the exterior. The recent updates to its event spaces had my creative heart singing with shades of blue and curtains that went on forever.

Lea and Brandon are so in love. Like that kind of love where he looks at her, she blushes and then they both slow walk into a giggling kiss. The day was laid back and happy, absolutely carefree. With touches of rose gold, bright florals and so many thoughtful details you could feel the love that went into planning this gorgeous day.

The bride and groom didn’t disappoint with their attire. She was breathtaking in a gorgeous gown that moved with her so elegantly. Literally she was stunning as she gracefully walked the hotel and beach. Brandon donned a blue suit with hidden interior paisley, perfectly matched brown dress shoes and the fun addition of silly socks.  The florals were amazing as was the cake. You can never go wrong with a cake from The Artistic Whisk. The brides ring (one of my faves this year) was romantic and unique, set in rose gold and so beautiful.

The day was filled with love and smiles from getting ready to a perfect intimate first look. After that a sweet ceremony in the courtyard and sunset photos on the beach. Everything was beautiful and everyone could tell these two were a love written in the stars.

The reception was warm and pretty in a gorgeous terrace room that overlooked the gulf. First dances, cake cutting and one last sneak outside for some romantic night time photos and the my time with this lovely couple was complete. It truly was a wedding I won’t forget and one I’m so grateful to have been chosen to be there.

St. Pete Beach Wedding, The Grand Plaza, Crystal + Ben

May 22, 2018 ·

Who doesn’t love a wedding where you can put your toes in the sand and watch the sun dip into the ocean?! Crystal and Ben said their wedding vows under the warm sunshine at the Grand Plaza on St. Pete Beach. Their ceremony was attended by their closest family and friends, many of which traveled from states away to be part of the day. All the guests were all smiles, happy tears and loving cheers for this match made in heaven.

Crystal’s gown was so elegant and looked absolutely gorgeous on her.  I really loved the details on the lace, the ruffles and the contrasting liner. Ben rocked a full beard with a clean cut suit that complemented Crystal perfectly. Apart they were gorgeous but together they were perfection.

The day led us through getting ready and a sunny first look on the sands of St. Pete Beach. The ceremony was short and sweet with a lively reception right after. It was filled with pretty set tables, the cutest cake and speeches and toasts that made my eyes well up. Renee, Crystals mom really knows how to bring the emotion out. I’m not sure there was a dry eye after the words she spoke to her daughter were finished. It was truly a moment where time stopped, everyone listened and we all felt the love.

A few dances, one warm, golden sunset and the day was finished. The memories made will never be forgotten though.

Enjoy the highlight video from this beautiful day!

Museum of History Wedding, Downtown St. Pete, Lauren + Kacy

April 12, 2018 ·

Lauren and Kacy planned their wedding in downtown St. Petersburg at the Museum of History. It was bright and sunny with a unique St. Patty’s day vibe. Special touches like a horse drawn carriage and fun Irish music made the entire day so much fun!

The couple had a romantic first look under beautiful bougainvillea in Old Northeast. After that we had just enough time for couples photos and a short drive to the ceremony location.

The weather was so nice, with warm sun and a light breeze. All the guests at this pretty outdoor wedding enjoyed watching this adorable couple say “I do”.

The reception was filled with heartfelt toasts, delicious food and dancing. It had everything a perfect wedding day should have but most importantly it was filled with love. I’m so happy I was chosen to be part of this gorgeous day!

See all the highlights of their day here:
