SARAH AND DOUGLAS FEATURED IN THE LIMELIGHT | THE FLORIDA AQUARIUM | TAMPA, FL

December 17, 2017

Sarah and Douglas met seven years ago when they were invited to spend time with their friends (who were dating). They laughed all night and got along so well, that when it was time to leave Douglas asked Sarah for a ride home...and for her phone number.

Fast forward to Christmas Day in 2016; Douglas surprised Sarah with a proposal for marriage. With all the years of being made to feel safe and accepted, of course she would say, YES! There was nothing more she wanted to do that to commit her heart and life to her best friend and soul mate. Douglas’s passion and dedication towards Sarah was very evident the moment I was able to spend time with the both of them. Every one is always searching for a love like theirs. Pure and Steadfast.

Sarah and Douglas were married in a traditional ceremony at an untraditional location, The Florida Aquarium. They were able to beautifully incorporate an “Under the Sea” + Harry Potter theme into their big day by choosing to exchange their vows in the Coral Reef Room and by creating Sarah’s bouquet and Douglas’ Boutonniere from Harry Potter book pages. Strings Attached actually played Hedwig’s theme for the guests before the ceremony! It was an absolutely magical experience watching Sarah and Douglas seal their vows with an unexpected curtain of bubbles flowing skywards in the aquarium tank behind them.

Congratulations Sarah + Douglas, I’m honored to have witnessed your love for each other!

We had the wonderful pleasure of joining this pretty couple on a very, blue, clear-skied December day. Ben and Jennifer’s love story begins about five years ago when they met each other at work.

Fast forward to December of 2017 and we find them here in the Treasure Island area saying their I Do’s inside St. John’s Catholic Church where they had such a beautiful ceremony which was then followed by a fun reception where their friends and family could celebrate the night away along with the couple.

Stephanie and Billy met six years on and went on their first date to Clearwater Beach. Billy proposed right at home in their kitchen! It is so special how this sweet couple makes each other laughs – so it was very fitting that they planned a wedding weekend that showcased extraordinary food and fun music and a steel drum band that really set the beachy mood and allowed all of their guests to have fun!

GABRIELLE AND BRYAN FEATURED IN THE LIMELIGHT | SOUTHERN HILLS PLANTATION CLUB | BROOKSVILLE, FL

December 7, 2017

Gabrielle and Bryan were married in a beautiful and romantic candlelit ceremony and reception at the Southern Hills Plantation Club in Brooksville, FL! Dreams of Iceland were what inspired this amazing couple to have a whimsical and romantic nightime ceremony surrounded by candle and twinkle lights. They chose music by an Icelandic composer and the bridesmaids carried candles instead of flowers to create the feeling of a secret garden. The bride wanted her guests to be transported to a different place and to not feel like they were in Florida. The ambiance created by the glowing light added that soft and romantic feeling to their whole wedding day! Gabrielle chose an elegant wedding dress that was absolutely stunning on her and fit the theme of their romatic wedding perfectly. The lace design, open back and multiple layers in the skirt were whimsical, soft and romantic! The reception was beautiful and intimate and lavish with hand selected brass and copper candleabras and flowers. It was such a pleasure to work with this wonderful couple on their amazing wedding day! Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. O’Neal!.
