Missy + Cameron Step Into The Limelight | TradeWinds Resort | St. Petersburg, FL

Missy & Cameron’s LOVE story:

How/when did you meet each other:: Cameron and Missy do not agree on the timeline of how they met, but they can agree that they are so happy they did! Cameron claims dancing in a large group of people at a wedding counts, but Missy does not. Cameron was covered in poison ivy and refused to introduce himself. After a few weeks, Missy was swiping away on a dating app and came across Cameron. Turns out he "accidentally" super liked her, and she decided to give him a chance. After a year and a half of a long distance relationship, Cameron and Missy decided to move into their new home in Mt. Airy, Maryland to start their lives together. 

How did he propose:: We always visit Cameron's parents in Florida during our winter break and his aunt and uncle had just bought a condo in Clearwater, FL. Cameron and his sister came up with the brilliant idea to drive down to Clearwater to see the new condo and also explore the beach. The whole drive down threatened rain and Cam and Nicole kept going back and forth on what we should do first: eat lunch or visit the beach. I didn't care either way. Meanwhile, Cameron is sweating through his shirt and I was still clueless. We arrive in Clearwater and the day is beautiful so we decided to walk along the beach first. As we approach the beach, Cam and Nicole are complaining about how crowded the beach is. For me, it was like 10 people max, that is not crowded in my opinion, I was thinking they are crazy. So, we start walking along the beach and Cameron stops walking at one point. I stop too, thinking we might take a picture here and I'm just staring off at the gulf. I turn around and Cameron has a ring box and is getting down on one knee. Once I see him I shout, "No, what are you doing?!" This of course confuses him as I shouted "no". He still manages to ask me to marry him and at this point I'm crying and can't speak. I walk to him and kiss him, still haven't said "yes", until he finally asks, "so, is that a yes?" and I manage to nod my head and give him a shaky, "yes!" 

What do you love about each other:: Cameron is my person. After our first date, I knew he was someone I could see myself with. We spent 5+ hours just sitting at the bar talking and it was so easy. I had never felt more comfortable on a first date in my life. He allows me to be myself and he brings out the best in me. He can read me so easily and knows exactly what I need. He makes me feel safe, he makes me laugh, he makes me feel loved, he makes me happy. 

What I love the most about Missy is how we get along so well. Our personalities are a perfect match. We laugh and joke together as if we have known each other our whole lives. She's caring. She's loving. She make me want to be a better person. I am lucky to be able to spend the rest of my life with Missy, someone I love and care about so much. 

Interests/hobbies you enjoy doing together:: We love to explore new places, go for hikes with our dog (Koda), lay on the couch and watch Netflix, play Mario Party, hang out with friends. Cameron is trying to get me into golf, but after 3 years, I'm still not very good (to be fair I only really play when we visit Florida).

Oh how we LOVED meeting these two so much! They are both super laid back and so much fun! The made sure tp enjoy every single aspect of their day… this included enjoying some quality time with each guest and family member who attended. We loved seeing them take their time and go teach table to make sure to talk to everyone. We loved witnessing these two say their vows and just enjoy being together… congratulations to an amazing couple, we wish you both ALL the best!

Lynn + Frank Step Into The Limelight | TRADEWINDS ISLAND RESORT | ST. PETE BEACH, FL

Lynn and Frank met four years ago when Frank went to Lynn’s house for snow removal. After that, a mutual friend set them up a few months later and they haven’t looked back since! 

What they love the most about each other is that they both make each other laugh and they both love the outdoors. Frank decided to get down on one knee and propose to Lynn one evening after they went out to eat. 

Their wedding was a laid back and fun affair at the TradeWinds Island Resort with their family and closest friends present. The beach vibe set the tone for a relaxed, barefoot, fun celebration!

Keeley + Drew Step Into The Limelight | The Don CeSar | St. Petersburg, FL

Drew and Keeley were love at first swipe - they met on Bumble and went on their first date on November 28, 2017. They met for cocktails after work at a bar called Buecherts Saloon on Capitol Hill in DC and shared a kiss under the night sky and fell in love very fast & fiercely!

Keeley joined Drew and his family last November on a trip to the Patagonia.The proposal day involved a strenuous mountain hike up Cerro Llao Llao to a beautiful lookout spot at the top. Keeley was going about it as normal, stopping at every beautiful spot along the way up while secretly Drew was freaking out.  When they got to the gorgeous 360 view of the Patagonia mountain tops, Keeley plopped down on

the edge to soak it all in – Drew asked, “are you sure you don’t want to stand up?” Keeley had no idea what was going on so she remained seated. Drew conceded and said slightly under his breath “well then I guess this is as good a place as any…” and right then and there, something incredible happened!!!

The Wedding day came along and knowing just how adventurous and fun this couple was, we knew it would be such a great day from the start! Getting ready with friends and family was definitely so much fun with funny moments, laughs and sweet moments. A first look happened for the couple and it was such a sweet and tender moment for the two (of course they also had a blast and made it funny). Once with each other, we joined the entire bridal party and we made our way to the front of the beautiful Don Cesar to take some pretty epic group shots of everything just having the time of their life together.

Ceremony happened and it was such a beautiful moment and out of no where it started raining!!! Everyone was such a good sport about it and the couple made this little surprise into such a good and unexpected plot twist - they went along with it and made the best out of this funny occurrence! What is better than a rain of blessings from above?!

And just like they had always desired, the two joined their loved ones and the most near-and-dear, at a gorgeous reception. Even though it rained, we were still all able to go outside onto one of the Don Cesar’s patios to dance the night away. It was such a fun and adventurous day with these two love birds, congrats to the newly weds!!!
