Mikka + Ross Step Into The Limelight | The Resort at Longboat Key Club | Longboat Key, FL

Get to know Mikka & Ross ❤︎

How/when did you meet each other: On August 19, 2016 Mikka was traveling from Buffalo to Greece via NYC with her sister, Meagan. Ross was traveling from Buffalo to NYC for vacation. Mikka and Ross sat next to each other on the plane from Buffalo to New York City. They started talking, exchanged numbers and have been together ever since. 

How did he propose: On March 2, 2019, Ross told Mikka that he had arranged for her to get her hair and makeup done as an apology after getting into a fake (although Mikka was unaware it was fake) argument the week before. Ross told Mikka that he got her an Uber to take her to the appointment, but the Uber was really her best friend from out of town and surprised her. When Mikka got back from her appointment she said that he friend was staying at the Curtiss Hotel in Buffalo and they should try to get a room for the night (Ross had secured a suite a month prior). Ross "made a reservation" at the hotel and then they went to a nice dinner just the two of them. After dinner they went to the hotel to check-in (Ross had already checked in and got the suite all set up). When they entered the room, there were flowers, champagne and Ross proposed. After the proposal, they went to the rooftop bar of the hotel where Ross had arranged all of their friends to be there to celebrate. 

Mikka& Ross love everything about each other, they say “all of life’s moments are enhanced by the other being there” ❤︎ They enjoy traveling, doing new things, cooking and movies.

We just absolute LOVED meeting Mikka, Ross, Kennedy & Everly, what a sweet family!
Every little moment was cherished and they all truly LOVE so well. Kennedy was the best little Flower girl (she took her job seriously!) and made sure to dance the night away oh and baby Everly is the calmest most adorable baby I’ve ever met. Mikka & Ross were beaming with love a we LOVED to see it! After waiting for what seemed like forever for the big (thanks to COVID),Mikka & Ross made sure to celebrate BIG and we could not be happier for this beautiful couple. We wish you both ALL that is good. Enjoy it all!

Amanda + Logan Step Into The Limelight | Opal Sands Resort | Clearwater Beach, FL

One random night at a local brewery, Amanda met Logan. She wasn’t sure of him but ended up having such a great time on the first date that she knew immediately she had been wrong. A few years later, Amanda and Logan were sitting at a beautiful lake front restaurant when Logan popped the question. Well, you know the answer because here we are!

Amanda and Logan love traveling, watching movies, trying new foods and spending time together. Logan loves how Amanda is always go go go and Amanda loves how chill Logan is. Amanda loves how caring Logan is and appreciates that he keeps her fed on weeknights when she works late. Logan loves Amanda's thoughtfulness and how she puts others before herself.

The couple tied the knot at the beautiful Opal Sands. Not a cloud was in the sky and the day was filled with joy. Amanda thinks she is luckier than Logan (though, Logan would strongly disagree) because she found him. We have to say that after spending just a few hours with them, they are both the luckiest to have found each other. Congrats to the Tucks!

Jessica + Jose Step Into The Limelight | Bella Collina | Montverde, FL

Classic. Romantic. Glamorous.

ThisTuscany themed wedding came alive with fall colors and a hint of rose gold (their favorite color!).The evening was elegant, classy, romantic, and lots of FUN FUN FUN!!! Bella Collina is a Tuscany venue with many

beautiful views.The groom was in a royal blue suit and and the groomsmen were in a different shade of blue that accentuated the groom.The bride wore an elegant dress with a long train. Lots of flowers, tall centerpieces with more flowers, Champagne linens, candles.... . It was elegant, classy, romantic, and lots of FUN FUN FUN!!!

Jessica is a nurse practitioner and Jose is a retired NYC detective.Two such noble professions, for which we are grateful for their service to our country! Jose was born and raised in NYC and then had family move to Tampa about 15 years ago, and he moved down about three years ago. Jessica was born in Michigan, but has been in Florida since she was three years old.

Jessica and Jose met on 11/17/2017 in Ybor city at Gaspar Grotto. Jessica loves Jose's caring and loving personality. I also love his New York accent especially when he says "cawfee," "silva," "New Yawk" or when he tells me he's standing on line at a store (not in line). Jose makes me a better person everyday.



Jose loves how Jessica always thinks of others before herself. How she is so caring, loving and has the warmest heart he has ever met. How she loves his family like her own. He loves that she's a sports fan and how she will try almost anything once. Go Yankee! Go Big Blue! Go Rangers!

They love to be outside, either at the beach, riding their jet ski, ridin' naked in their Jeep (not really naked, just with the tops off the jeep).They also love to travel, go to sporting events, and explore new places!

Jose, along with Jessicas parents threw a graduation party for her completing her Masters Degree in Nursing, as well as a celebration for passing the state board exam to become a Nurse Practitioner. It was a beautiful night overlooking Tampa Bay, and after Jessica's father and step-father said a few words, Jose took to the microphone to also recognize her achievements.Then, in front of family and friends, with an already prepared proposal (which went out the door), Jose dropped to one knee and proposed.You may see highlights from their engagement session at Hotel Zamora here.

Favorite details about the wedding included, of course the venue their “my must have staircase”.Their favorite part of the day was saying "I do" and celebrating with their family and friends, near and far.

Devin + Michael Step Into The Limelight | Hyatt Regency Clearwater Beach Resort And Spa | Clearwater Beach, FL

After 2 times postponing, this must have been 3 times the charm. It was the most perfect day!! Devin and Mike’s story began in 2014, where they met in law school. A few years later Mike proposed at a beautiful beach in Ireland. Since their original wedding was set for May 2020, they were so excited to finally get to exchange vows in front of their loved ones. They had a beautiful rooftop ceremony, followed by an even more beautiful sunset! As many people said throughout the night, Devin and Mike compliment each other perfectly, and it’s like they’ve been a part of each other’s families for years. We were so happy to be a part of such an anticipated day and it did not disappoint! The couple had a great time catching up with all their guests and finally getting to party with them. Truly an amazing night! We couldn’t be happier for Devin and Mike, and we know they have such an amazing future ahead of them 💖 Cheers to the newlyweds!

Mary + Mike Step Into The Limelight | Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church + Safety Harbor Resort and Spa | Safety Harbor, FL

What a beautiful day! Mary and Make exchanged their vows at Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church surrounded by both of their families, and then partied the night away at the Safety Harbor Resort & Spa. The whole day was filled with so much love and emotion.  There wasn’t a dry eye in the room when the bride’s nephews walked her down the aisle. The groom’s family also had a special role. His cousin Evan and his wife Deena were the couple’s Koumbari, also known as “sponsors” in the Greek Orthodox Ceremony.  The Greek traditions continued throughout the night and Mary and Mike had the absolute BEST time dancing to their amazing band. It was absolutely a night to remember! Cheers to the new Mr. and Mrs. Haleas 💗
