Hannah + Adam Step Into The Limelight | Isla Del Sol Yacht & Country Club | St. Petersburg, FL

March 6, 2020

Hannah & Adam met in the Summer of 2015 through mutual friends. Since then… life has been full of beauty and their fur babies! Adam even proposed to Hannah right in their living room alongside their doggies.
They support each other in everything they do and honesty is key between the two.
Hannah & Adam enjoy traveling, hiking, swimming and exploring together.

Their wedding day was filled with lot of colors and family was all around… we were surrounded by water and sunshine. We truly loved seeing these two tie the knot. They have planned and dreamed of this day for quite some time, so seeing their vision come to life was precious. There were many DYI elements, from the bouquets done by Hannah’ sister to the decor on the gazebo to each little detail on the tables, the custom shells carrying the rings and flower girl baskets all made or embellished by hand.

Hannah & Adam we wish you both so much LOVE and many more adventures together!

Megan + Matthew Step Into The Limelight | Lido Beach Resort | Sarasota, FL

March 5, 2020

Surrounded by friends, family and love these two families became together in the midst of a lighthearted and fun ambiance. Megan and Matthew met back on October 24, 2014. Their first date was to Handles Ice Cream shop in their hometown of Fishers, IN. Their second date was to the Indianapolis Zoo.

According to Matt he proposed “very extravagantly” 😉. He proposed in front of the soldiers and sailors monument in Indianapolis, IN with all of their friends and family around. The bride’s best friends (Cristina and Michelle) took Megan on a scavenger hunt that ended at the monument. Cristina got Megan and Michelle lost in the middle of downtown Indianapolis on the way to the monument, in the pouring rain with a dead cell phone. But thankfully all worked out in the end!

What do you love about each other? {In their own words…}
Matt loves about Megan:

She’s always thinking about others and putting others first
Great person, great friend
Puts up with my annoying and goody behavior

Megan loves about Matt:

Selfless, caring, loving
Will give everything he has if it will help someone else
His desire to make the world a better place (police officer, soldier in the army)
His love and passion
Goofy, never takes life too seriously

Together they enjoy playing with their “fur babies” Cooper (dog) and Niko (cat), going out to eat at new restaurants, double dates with Cristina and Spencer, exploring zoos and aquariums in different cities and spending time with families and friends.

Megan’s love for the ocean and her dream of getting married on the beach inspired their search for the perfect wedding venue. Megan’s grandparents live in the Sarasota area and that is how they discovered Lido Beach Resort. Their classy, yet casual wedding was a little bit country with ocean vibes. They brought their home town in Indiana to the beach by with incorporating country music and sunflowers in the decor.

Priya + Austin Step Into The Limelight | Rooftop 220 | Marriott Tampa Water Street | Tampa, FL

February 28, 2020

The wonderful thing about Priya & Austin is that they grew up together. They have known each other since middle school! How absolutely unique is that? They share the love for the Florida Gatos together as well as trashy reality shows! Let me tell you… they are both hilarious, they made us all laugh all day long.

Priya & Austin reside in Colorado and they wanted to come back to Tampa where they grew up to celebrate.
They chose to do a Traditional Indian Hindu wedding ceremony at Tampa Water Street surrounded by family and close friends from all over the country. Some family members even traveled all the way from India to join in the festivities.
We absolutely enjoyed being a part of Priya & Austin’s story, from the welcome party (where we experienced out first Henna designs as photographers) to the non-stop dancing during their reception… the music, the food, the people it was all so very vibrant and alive with bliss. Such a beautiful and bright culture!

Thank you Priya & Austin for having us! We wish you both ALL the best in life! badhaee ho

Morgan + Ed Step Into The Limelight | Downtown St. Petersburg, FL

February 26, 2020

Oh Morgan & Ed, I just loved meeting them so much! Here’s a little story about this awesome couple!

They actually met at a party when Morgan was visiting a friend at Ed’s university. They hit it off, but they thought they would never see each other again because they were going to different schools. Turns out that 2 years later, Ed moved closer to Morgan’s hometown of Kansas City and that same friend Morgan was visiting invited both of them to a party again. And that time Ed was very quick to get Morgan’s number and ask her on a date! Also… ps that mutual friend is going to be their officiant! How special is that?!

Ed proposed on their family vacation in July (2019) in Fort Lauderdale. Morgan’s sister was taking pictures of them by the water before they went to their dinner reservations which Morgan’s family claimed was to celebrate Morgan’s sister and dad’s birthdays that are in July. Ed got down on his knee right there on the beach and Morgan’s sister got all my surprised reactions on camera.

Morgan loves that Ed is kind to everyone he meets and he is very funny. He has witty comebacks that just make her laugh. He’s very approachable and smiles often which is her favorite sight to see! Ed loves how cool Morgan is, they are always on the same page… and then stated

They moved to Florida because the warm weather allows them to be outside year round and they both are happiest by the water. They enjoy going to the beach, kayaking, and riding our bikes. Also, they really enjoy drinking a nice cold beer and watching football games together!

How can you not just love them?

Morgan & Ed… Congratulations on your engagement! You two make my heart very happy.
