Jennifer + Mike Step Into The Limelight | Paradise Spring | Lithia, FL

April 3, 2019

In 2016 Mike stumbled across Jenn's Twitch stream because she was playing his favorite game, The Last of Us. They became fast friends and spent countless hours hanging out and gaming together online. While spending their anniversary in St. Augustine, they were taking a walk through the beautiful historic town. Everything just felt right so Jenn knelt down and asked the question!

“I love Mike's good heart, how he cares so much about others and the loving way he treats animals too. I love his sense of humor and how well it meshes with my own. I love his never-ending enthusiasm for life, always coming up with new fun things to do and never letting us fall into routine. I love how sensitive and romantic he is, he's so loving and always surprising me with small gestures. I love how supportive he is of my passions and dreams, he is very involved in my stream and always rooting for me. He has never missed one of my shows.I love his problem-solving mind, he's not one to give up on any problem, he'll always think of a solution and work to fix it. I love his voice, his laugh, his face, everything about him.” - Jenn

“Falling in love with Jenn happened in an instant. She always brings the best version of myself out of me in every situation and always makes me look inside of myself and think about things from a different perspective. There's never ever enough time in a day to spend with her and I'm constantly looking for new things to do and experience with her. She makes me laugh all the time, makes my heart race and melt all at once. She has the kindest heart I've ever known and an unrivaled sense of empathy. Just seeing her face makes me smile and I feel so lucky and special to be able to share my time and my life with her and to watch her grow into an even more wonderful person every single day.” - Mike

Together they enjoy gaming, watching movies, going on walks, playing card games, binging TV shows on Netflix, going to restaurants, going to Disney and visiting Connecticut.

Jennifer and Mike wanted somewhere quiet and filled with nature away from the normal tropical and beach-type areas and venues so commonly found in Florida. Their wedding day outfits matched the overall color palette of their wedding and fell in line with the nature-infused and floral theme.

They selected all of the designs and details about their ceremony and reception. They compromised along the way to make sure the day was special and meaningful to both of them. Just knowing that their wedding is a culmination of both of their efforts and creativity made this day special and unique to them. The wedding vows, the first kiss the food and seeing all of their friends and family there to support them and their life together and share their special moments with them was beautiful to witness.

All of their hard work and planning came together to create a beautiful and enchanting scene with the floral decorations, the ceremony area in the secret garden and for their reception on the Villa patio. The entire day was a romantic and intimate escape to a secret garden surrounded by family and loved ones to celebrate the partnership they share. They wedding was nature-infused, rustic-filled and lush with flowers and trees….A tucked away fantasy.

Rachel + Anthony Step Into The Limelight | The Birchwood | St. Petersburg, FL

April 3, 2019

I don’t think we ever danced so much at a wedding before! We could not stand still. The room was so alive and filled with JOY, it was contagious!
That’s how the whole day was for these two. They beamed happiness!
Rachel & Anthony dated for 7 years before tying the knot in front of close friends and family. They enjoy cooking and traveling (always in style).
St. Paul's Catholic Church is a particularly meaningful location for Rachel as she attended elementary + middle school there and now Rachel got to marry the love of her life where so many other beautiful memories took place. Rachel loves Anthony's big heart for people and she admires his generosity and kindness. Rachel is more of a reserved gal who finds pure contentment in being genuine and loving towards others.
Rachel & Anthony’s wedding day was the epiphany of classic elegance meeting “the need to party!” Their guests enjoyed a night of dancing surrounded by glamour and long-lasting memories at the never disappointing Birchwood in downtown St. Pete.
Rachel & Anthony, we know you both will enjoy life. We wish you both ALL the dancing and “amazing culinary” life can possibly bring.

Dawn + Charles Step Into The Limelight | Fenway Hotel | Dunedin, FL

March 28, 2019

Dawn + Charles’ story began when they met on an online dating website. They are both big into health and fitness and love to train together by cycling, skiing boating, and hiking. Dawn + Charles are also hardworking and in their off time they love to live life large and travel.

Charles proposed to Dawn at a private beach in the Bahamas after enduring a very rough sea day on their boat. On the day of the proposal he knew the timing was right when all of a sudden the wind seized and the clouds opened to reveal the sun. He knew it was his late mothers presence and took it as a sign from above that Dawn was the one!

Congratulations on becoming husband and wife Dawn + Charles!

Andreina + John Step Into The Limelight | Cross Creek Ranch | Dover, FL

March 26, 2019

Ina first met John while finishing her internship at Palmetto General Hospital. Though John did not notice Ina during this time, he definitely left quite the impression on her. Sadly, their timing was not right and Ina's internship came to an end sending them both on separate ways. Fast forward a couple of months when Ina was offered a job at Palmetto and where John was still working on his fellowship. This time, however, their timing was perfect and with a little help from some friends, a relationship began between the two. They were both crazy about each other and knew they wanted to spend the rest of their lives together and so John asked Ina the question in front of a million people (which she hated) and she said yes. Now the two live together in Tampa along their two crazy, but loving puppies, Red and Blue.

Love story from couples’ website: http://www.johnpaulandandreinasayido.wedding/

We could not have asked for a more beautiful weekend! The deeply rooted and serene ceremony at Nativity Catholic Church was intimate and honorable. Then on Saturday, the feeling all around was warm and comforting with family & friends and the most perfectly decorated venue at Cross Creek Ranch with touches of dusty pink elegance with a modern rustic chic feel.

Ina & John are a delight to be around… they live life to the fullest and their dancing shoes are on ALL DAY!

Andreina is from Venezuela, so you know the party was on! So.Much.Fun. indeed! Along with so many memorable moments, like the First Look on the “love” bridge, First Dances and the time when the Best Man said “ I’ve know John since kindergarten”, such a cherished friendship. This will be a night to remember for us.

Thank you for having us Andreina & John. We wish you ALL the best life can bring. Viva la vida!

Amy + Richard Step Into The Limelight | Downtown Tampa, FL

March 26, 2019

What a great session we had with this wonderful and happy family. We started off with all members of the family, including their four-legged loved ones. Love and laughter all throughout their session was contagious and set the tone to a beautiful moment. After shooting in the spot that Richard proposed to Amy, we made our way to a place with a little more of an exciting and relaxed atmosphere. Here, Amy and Richard got some drinks and cheered to a new life together! They will both be saying their I-DO’s mid JULY. Congratulations on your engagement!!!
