Katie and Mike - A Wintery Wedding in St. Petersburg

Katie and Mike - A Wintery Wedding in St. Petersburg

Katie and Mike put together a perfect winter wedding with a non-traditional winter color palette of Emerald Green, Blush Pink, and Pewter (which we loved)!  Katie's gorgeous gown received A LOT of special attention that day; she had a final reveal with her dad, bridesmaids, and the groom, in three different and intimate first looks (And how beautiful was Katie's fur stole?).  Does anyone else just melt when they see tears welling up in a father's eyes?  And we love how the bridesmaids were all cheering with excitement!

Katie and John's wedding was the epitome of timeless romance! These two selected a soft color scheme of blush and ivory with metallic accents, classic attire, and their hometown Catholic church for exchanging sacred vows, followed by a reception at the nearby art museum (could it get any better?)

Amanda and Brad - An Old Florida Nautical Wedding

Amanda and Brad - An Old Florida Nautical Wedding

Brad & Amanda met while working at Publix during high school (spoiler alert: her Maid of Honor contacted Publix corporate office and had a pair of custom aprons made for them as a surprise gift - so cute!). Amanda knew she wanted a wedding at a historic venue on the water, and upon seeing the Powel Crosley Estate (particularly the compass room) the Old Florida Nautical wedding style was conceived. We incorporated lanterns, stacks of antique books wrapped with twine, fishing orbs, and loose natural floral arrangements. Even the little escort cards were meant to look like markers in the sea. Their menu reflected Florida cuisine (and their love of seafood) including a Florida Grouper topped with mango salsa and shrimp.
