Haley + Todd Step Into The Limelight | Longboat Key Club | Longboat Key, FL

A Longboat Key Club Wedding Filled With Calm, Laughter, and Love.

When two Scorpios meet, the universe definitely stirs things up in the best possible way. That’s exactly how it was for Haley Geoffroy and Todd Keebaugh, whose story began back in 2017 when they worked for the same company. Life eventually led them in different directions, but years later, LinkedIn did what dating apps couldn’t… it brought them back together. A simple message, a drink to “catch up,” and suddenly, the spark was undeniable.

Their proposal was just as perfectly them, equal parts sentimental and spontaneous. During a birthday weekend getaway in Longboat Key (they’re both Scorpios, celebrating just ten days apart!), Todd suggested they stop by the new St. Regis before dinner with his parents. A walk on the beach turned into a life-changing moment when Haley turned around to find Todd on one knee, ocean breeze swirling around them, the kind of calm and beauty that only the sea and true love can bring.

That same peaceful energy carried through to their wedding day at The Resort at Longboat Key Club. The couple envisioned something intimate, heartfelt, and joyful, a celebration surrounded by their closest family and friends in a place they consider their second home. The golf course views reflected one of their favorite shared passions, but it was their connection that truly set the tone.

Even when strong rain rolled in right before the ceremony, neither of them lost their calm. Todd’s serene presence balanced Haley’s joyful excitement perfectly, like the still ocean meeting a warm breeze. It felt as though the rain had arrived with a purpose: to wash away any heaviness from the air so their life together could begin clear, bright, and overflowing with blessings.

And when the skies cleared, the light seemed to glow just for them. The way Todd looked at Haley was like watching the sunset over the sea, soft, steady, and full of peace.

Haley looked stunning in a gown that felt as if it had been waiting for her all along, and later changed into a second dress that fit like it was designed just for the dance floor. Todd’s midnight blue tuxedo, a nod to Penn State and his ocean-colored eyes, added the perfect touch of classic charm.

The day was filled with thoughtful details and playful moments, like a round of glow-in-the-dark mini golf during cocktail hour that kept everyone laughing. Their cake, a delicious mix of salted caramel and Boston Crème, mirrored the texture and beauty of Haley’s dress, a detail Todd didn’t discover until that sweet moment of cutting it together.

Behind all the beauty, there was also a lot of heart and creativity. Haley crafted nearly everything by hand, from the welcome sign and bar menus to embroidered napkins, koozies, and personalized putting green flags. With her Cricut, sewing machine, and embroidery tools, she poured her creativity into every corner of the day, making it truly their own.

From start to finish, Haley and Todd’s wedding felt like them, joyful, grounded, and full of love. It wasn’t about perfection; it was about presence. The laughter, the quiet moments, the way she reached for his hand, and the way his calm steadied everyone around them.

Their day at The Resort at Longboat Key Club was more than a wedding; it was a reflection of two souls who make each other better, who balance, complete, and calm the world around them.

To Haley and Todd: Thank you for letting me be part of such an incredible moment in your lives. Watching the rain give way to sunshine felt like witnessing the start of something truly blessed. May your journey together always be filled with peace, laughter, and a love as radiant as the light after the storm.
- With love, Natalia

Karen & Tim’s “Love Boat” Celebration

Karen and Tim’s wedding day was a dream come true on the water. Surrounded by a small circle of family and friends, they exchanged heartfelt vows aboard what they affectionately called the Love Boat,  a luxurious yacht from Kokomo Charters in Sarasota, Florida. The yacht, officially named Memory Maker, lived up to its name as it carried everyone through a breathtaking Florida sunset wedding filled with joy, laughter, and romance.

Adding an elegant and unforgettable touch to the evening was a live trumpet player, whose soulful music floated through the air during the ceremony and celebration. The gentle notes perfectly complemented the rhythm of the waves, creating a timeless and romantic atmosphere that made their yacht wedding in Sarasota truly unique.

The intimacy of their day was what made it so special. With only their closest loved ones on board, Karen and Tim’s Love Boat celebration felt deeply personal. A true reflection of their love story. Every smile, every golden ray of sunset, and every heartfelt moment was beautifully preserved, turning their wedding into a collection of memories they’ll cherish forever.

As the evening came to a close and the Love Boat made its way back to shore, the couple shared one last dance under the stars, the perfect ending to a perfect day on the Gulf.

Allyssa + Chris Step Into The Limelight | Zota Beach Resort | Longboat Key, FL

The sun dipped low over the Gulf as soft hues of neutral tones and desert coral painted the sky — the perfect reflection of this couple’s timeless style. Their wedding at Zota Beach Resort in Sarasota, Florida celebrated love in its purest, most effortless form: simple, heartfelt, and deeply connected.

A Love Story Rooted in Faith

Their journey began years earlier on a church retreat in high school, where friendship quietly blossomed into a forever kind of love. After years of shared memories, laughter, and adventures, he proposed during a sunset dinner cruise — the ocean breeze carrying promises of a lifetime together.

The Day They Said “I Do”

The couple envisioned a neutral, modern beach wedding — serene, refined, and free of cliché décor. Every detail reflected their love for natural beauty and effortless design. Surrounded by soft neutrals and warm coral tones, their celebration felt organic and romantic, blending seamlessly with the sand and sea.

They exchanged heartfelt vows beneath the open sky, with waves rolling gently in the background. The most emotional moment came when he first saw her walking down the aisle — the world seemed to pause as their eyes met. It was everything they had imagined and more.

Personal Touches & Unforgettable Moments

The bride’s favorite part of the day was getting ready with her bridesmaids and the walk down the aisle — a moment filled with anticipation and joy. Their DIY centerpieces added a personalized touch to the reception, where laughter, dancing, and genuine happiness filled the air. Friends and family enjoyed a night that truly embodied their wish: for everyone to have fun and feel love.

Jessica + Koren Step Into The Limelight | The Ringling | Sarasota, FL

Get to know Jessica & Koren…

How/when did you meet each other: 

Jessica and Koren met on the first day of Physical Therapy school. They became close friends when they started commuting together to Anatomy Lab. They spent hours studying together, and Koren would save Jess a seat in class and bring her snacks on their breaks. Neither Jess or Koren had intentions to date initially, however after three months of friendship, they grew close and have been together since!

How did he propose: 

Koren and Jessica and their close friends were at the 2019 X-Games in Aspen to celebrate Jessica's birthday. While they were skiing, Koren and Jess took the lift to the top of the mountain where Koren got down on one knee and proposed! Koren admits that he was terrified of falling and losing the ring the whole day. Jessica was so excited that she skied down the mountain screaming "I'm engaged!"

What do you love about each other:  

Jess: I love that Koren is adventurous, he is caring and generous, he always sees the best in people, he brings a sense of humor into every situation. 

Koren: I love Jess’s selflessness, drive, sense of humor, patience.

Interests/hobbies you enjoy doing together:

Skiing, hiking, camping, paddle boarding, trying new foods/beers, traveling, biking and hanging with family and friends

Describe the overall story for your wedding:

We wanted to have a weekend full of activities for our guests to enjoy and spend time with us the whole weekend. We are kicking off the weekend with a catamaran cruise, then rehearsal dinner, then wedding and then Beach BBQ the day after the wedding. We value quality time very much and wanted to celebrate with everybody we love over the whole weekend. 

Inspiration for your wedding location and theme:

Koren’s family is from Florida and my grandparents are comfortable with Florida so we decided to do it there. We originally were planning our wedding to be overseas as many of our family lives internationally. We decided to keep it in Florida to make it easier on our local guests.  I still wanted to have international influence and for that reason I chose the Ringling as it has a Venetian style.

Their wedding day was magic! The Ringing never ceases to amaze us… and it was the perfect background for Jessica & Koren’s romantic, classic, elegant and simply gorgeous wedding. We LOVED being a part of each part of their day, from First Looks to that stunning sunset on the terrace. 

Jessica & Koren, thank you so much for having us! We wish you both ALL the happiness in the world.
