Andrea & Tyler's Crystal River Wedding

When Andrea & Tyler first came to our office, Britni and I looked at each other the second they walked out and both shouted, " I LOVE them!!"    As a couple, they seemed so relaxed, always laughing, and so in love-- the trifecta!  Their original plans of having East Coast nuptials at a beach house eventually changed to a destination wedding near their family in Crystal River-- and we were happy to make the trip!    Andrea and Tyler were married right on the beach under our bamboo arbor, and I have to say that their ceremony was completely AMAZING.  It was free-form, with guests adding input as to why they belonged together.  It was like witnessing a huge group hug with Andrea and Tyler's closest friends-- (Yes... I cried.)
The reception was held in a tent at Tyler's family's home.  It was intimate, romantic, and completely personal.  We designed wispy curly-willow centerpieces with hydrangea blooms, lots and lots of mason jars for candlelight, and let's not forget the floating lotus flowers in the POOL.  (Which Andrea, Tyler and their guests cannon-balled into towards the end of the reception.  I told you we loved them!)

Here's a few shots of the ceremony-- reception photos coming soon!  Thank you to Tracy at Mainland Studios for the photographs!!

Erin & Ryan's Hammock Beach Wedding Day

Erin and Ryan's Hammock Beach wedding in Palm Coast was..... precious!  The weather was breezy and warm, the oceanfront setting was breathtaking, and all the personal details were uniquely Erin & Ryan.  With a theme of beachy relaxation, all the guests were seated in Adirondack chairs for the beautiful ceremony and then ushered to a stunning tented reception to dance the night away.  
We LOVE when our clients allow us to share ideas and be creative, and Erin & Ryan let us do just that.  There were natural branches, chalk boards, and even split peas incorporated into their wedding decor.  The day was so sweet, genuine, and filled with love!  Congratulations to the McCoys!
Thank you to these amazing vendors!

Jon and Jenny Frankel's Ravine Gardens Wedding

As wedding coordinators, we have the best job in the whole entire world!  We work with couples during the most exciting time in their lives!  
It is seldom, however, that we meet with a couple as truly head-over-heels-in-love as Jon and Jenny.  I have 100% faith that this is a marriage destined to last a lifetime!  When we first met in Ormond Beach, it was clear right from the start that they knew exactly what they wanted their wedding day to be like-- full of simple romance and fun!   When their big day arrived, Jon and Jenny both had their incredible families ready to celebrate with them!  
 Their wedding ceremony took place under a chuppa at the Ravine Gardens State Park in Palatka.  This beautiful backdrop was an important location to the bride and groom and proved to be the perfect place to exchange vows!

We had a great time coordinating their day, decorating their cake, and acting as the Emcee for the evening.  The photos below are courtesy of Nathan Deremer of http://www.deremerstudios.com 

Thank you to RPS Catering, Catered Cocktails, and Deremer Studios for a great wedding! 
Mazel tov to Jon and Jenny!

Simona and Ken's Saint Augustine Wedding



Simona & Ken's Saint Augustine wedding at the Anastasia Catholic Church and River House was nothing short of breathtaking.  Their celebration had it all-- Joy, Elegance, Tradition, Family, Romance, and Fun!
Ken and Simona combined the traditions and faiths of their families by having a Catholic ceremony and also a traditional Indian marriage ceremony, which included walking together around the sacred fire (represented by candles on the floor) and reciting vows.    The entire day was a perfect representation of their two families truly becoming one.
The photos below are taken by the extraordinarily talented Scarlett Lillian of www.ScarlettLillian.com , who is actually celebrating her own wedding day as I write this post! The AMAZING video above is courtesy of Shena Hays of www.PlatinumDigitalVideo.com .  Her style of videography truly captured every emotion of the day (and has the super-cool first dance song from Simona and Ken's first dance as the background music!) 

Thank you to all the vendors who made their memorable wedding day possible!
