Kelsey + Daniel Step Into The Limelight | Indigo Harvest Events | Inverness, FL

Kelsey and Daniel have so much fun together enjoying bush walks and being in nature, which is one of the reasons why they chose to have their wedding at Indigo Harvest Events in Inverness, Florida. It was here that Kelsey and Daniel brought together their American family with their Australian family in a very special ceremony underneath a beautiful tree and pledged their life long devotion to one another in a union before God.

Their union also signified a very important send off for Kelsey’s American Family as she will now reside in Sydney Australia with her husband Daniel. 

Congratulations Kelsey + Daniel!

Amanda + Jason Step Into The Limelight | The Don CeSar | St. Petersburg, FL

Amanda and Jason went to high school and college together and shared mutual friends. Years later both of their oldest kids were on the same swim team and Jason asked Amanda to grab a drink. Jason Proposed on July 16, 2017. The overall story of their beach wedding is not only about becoming one, but also joining their families.  It was very precious how they really made everything about the kids too. 

They both wanted to be married on the beach and The Don Cesar is a location visited frequently by groom's family. It was a fun and meaningful time for everyone in a beautiful atmosphere. Not only was there a celebration of love and marriage, but the atmosphere, lighting, and the ocean added to the magic, love happiness and beauty of the day.

Grace + Matthew Step Into The Limelight | The Florida Aquarium | Tampa, FL

What a marvelous and beautiful day we had with the lovely Grace and Matthew. We started the day off at the very stylish Aloft hotel in Tampa where family would help the two get ready for their big day. Once the couple was ready, we made our way to the Riverwalk in Tampa and the two did an intimate First Look and had a moment to talk and laugh with each other. We made our way to the ceremony site which would take place at The Florida Aquarium. Family and Friends watched as Grace and Matthew said their vows to each other with an amazing background of the Coral Reef Room full of sea life. Once married, we explored the different locations of the Florida Aquarium and made our way back to party and had a great time with their guests. After all the fun and great music, Grace and Matthew made their way out the door with a beautiful and fun little bubble exit. What a great way to end the night, congratulations to the newlyweds!

Lauren + Bo Step Into The Limelight | Hilton Garden Inn | Hyde Park Presbyterian Church | Italian Club | Tampa, FL

On July 26th, 2012 Lauren and Bo met at a mutual friends party and hit it off immediately. From that day they became best friends and a strong team by nurturing their similar core values regarding faith, friends, and family. 

Bo proposed to Lauren by making a very special scrapbook. He even involved all of her future bridesmaids and parents in on the plans by sending each person a page of the book. The instructions for their page were that they write one word that describes Lauren and to include a picture of Lauren with that specific person. On December 14th, during dinner Bo gave her the scrapbook. Lauren got to the last page, which read, “When I think of you four words come to mind. My favorite picture of us is from a moment that hasn’t happened yet.” The four words were, “Will you marry me?” and of course that answer was, YES!

Lauren and Bo both have a passion for animals, Lauren is an Animal Nurse and Bo is an Animal Trainer at Lowry Park Zoo. They decided to incorporate their love of animals into their wedding design by having an African theme guest book, African animal table names, and an animal seating card table accompanied by a sign encouraging guests to find their inner “Party Animal.” They are even going on an African Safari honeymoon!

Congratulations Lauren + Bo, I am SO honored to be a part of your big day!

Gina + Danny Step Into The Limelight | Hyatt Regency Clearwater Beach | Clearwater, FL

I could not have asked for a more perfect and sweet couple to work with!
Gina & Danny love sunsets, enjoy being together and they LOVE each other in the sweetest ways.
The planning process for this wedding was delightful, Gina & Danny knew exactly what they wanted and their vision come to life beautifully on their wedding day.
Friends and family gathered at Hyatt Regency in Clearwater Beach from all over the world, even Korea! Yes… Korea.
Every detail was thought through, and I loved how they honored their parents during the ceremony with flowers and words of appreciation. 
From the stunning wedding dress, to Gina's brother playing the guitar during the ceremony for Gina's walk down the aisle, to the lantern centerpieces, to the delicate shell place names and a special appearance of their dog Jindori, there were so many memorable moments. Gina’s father and her uncle even sang during the reception, it was such a treat!
This classic wedding was filled with nautical touches, romantic blush and white roses all wrapped up in a sophisticated feel. 
To top it all off, the sunset was perfect that day and it made for a spectacular and dreamy sunset session.
My heart is so happy for these two, their love is pure and genuine, their future together is so bright { and oh so romantic }. I pray they always make time to meet each other where the sun kisses the ocean.

A huge congratulations to Gina & Danny!
