Emily and Sean - A Charming Wedding in Historic Ybor City

Emily and Sean first met through a mutual friend (the maid of honor!) and were friends for a long time before Sean finally won Emily over with his cooking skills. One night after Sean and Emily took a trip out of town to visit her parents, where Sean secretly asked for her father’s blessing, Sean proposed to Emily at their date night go-to spot. Emily got so excited she took the ring right out of the box and put it on herself! Ybor City was always a special place to the couple so they knew the wedding needed to reflect the historic charm of the city, with whimsical and romantic elements included throughout.

The couple made sure to include many little charming details of the city into their decor and photos.
