Elizabeth + Matthew Step Into The Limelight | Bellwether Beach Resort | St. Pete Beach, FL

Elizabeth and Matt met at a bar in June of 2019. Matthew was working at after she went on a terrible online date. They are very attracted to each other physically, enjoy each other’s sense of humor, share the same faith, and love each other’s personalities. Together they enjoy just hanging out talking/laughing, going out to eat and working puzzles. Matt proposed at the airport, at the gate when Elizabeth got off the plane. She was getting off the plane to come visit is family for the 4th of July.

They had their wedding in St Pete because they just moved across the country and decided to start their lives together here! They were married in a traditional catholic wedding. They selected to celebrate at The Bellwether as their reception venue - an elegant but comfortable and fun location for their friends and family to all be together to celebrate their wedding with them. This beachside and pretty setting was enjoyed by for everyone. The flowers had a beauty influence - all white roses and orchids with tropical greenery. 

Elizabeth got creative with a few DIY projects - a sign at the entrance of the reception ballroom, the table numbers and name cards.

Highlights from the ceremony includeThe flower girls walking down the aisle, Elizabeth’s dad walking her down the aisle, when Elizabeth saw Matt's face as she walked down the aisle, and the moment the priest pronounced them married. The father/daughter dance & son/mom dance and enjoying the reception with their guests was the FAVORITE parts of the day for Elizabeth and Matthew.

Overall, everyone was excited, comfortable, pampered and ready for fun all day long!

Ioanna + John Step Into The Limelight | Innisbrook, A Salamander Golf and Spa Resort | Palm Harbor, FL

Ioanna and John’s big day was nothing short of perfect! They had a beautiful ceremony at St. Nicolas Greek Orthodox Cathedral, and then finished out the night at Innisbrook Golf Resort. The couple chose the golf club because the bride’s parent’s have a home there where they would spend holidays. John loved it so much he even told her dad “I’m going to marry your daughter here”. Cue the tears!! It was an intimate evening and they truly had the best time. We could tell they were the perfect fit for each other.! It was so fun to get to see all their amazing Greek traditions, and their favors that were handmade in Greece. What a beautiful night! So happy for Mr. and Mrs. Pazaetes and see nothing but a happy, loving life ahead for them

Elizabeth + Randy Step Into The Limelight | Wyndham Grand Clearwater Beach | Clearwater, FL

Randy & Elizabeth met on match.com and what a beautiful match they are!
Elizabeth loves Randy’s willingness to love her son as his own and now is an amazing father to their daughter together… and she loves that he loves Jesus.
Randy loves that Elizabeth is there for him no matter what!

They both enjoy traveling, dining out and entertaining friends and family. They travel to Florida at least once a year so choosing Clearwater Beach for their wedding location was a no-brainer and the Wyndham Grand Clearwater Beach was perfect backdrop for their magical wedding day.

Their days was classic, elegant and filled with vibrate red rose with touches of gold.
We LOVED being  part of this wedding, saying goodbye to 2021 with class.
We wish both Elizabeth & Randy a lifetime of adventures and LOVE.
Cheers to a stunning couple!

Jenna + Samuel Step Into The Limelight | Rusty Pelican | Tampa, FL

This day was a long time coming, and boy was it worth it!! Jenna and Sam were originally supposed to have their wedding on January 1, 2021. The unfortunately had to postpone the big celebration but they still were able to have a beautiful backyard ceremony with their closest loved ones! Though they were already married for almost a year there was still so much excitement that they could finally celebrate as planned. And they had a fun addition since they got a puppy a few months following their ceremony, they were able to include her for part of their day which was the sweetest! The reception took place at the beautiful Rusty Pelican where the couple had the best time dancing the night away. There was even a surprise performance! Jenna and her mom watched Mama Mia growing up and Jenna always said she wanted her mom to perform for wedding like in the movie. So her mom did just that, enlisting her 2 best friends for help. Everyone absolutely loved it! It was a joy to see everyone finally getting to celebrate the Belcastro’s and we are so glad we were a part of it. Officially one year of marriage down, many more to go. Congrats Jenna and Sam!!

Tamiko + David Step Into The Limelight | Lido Beach Resort | Sarasota, FL

OMG! How we LOVE these two!

Their entire day was so emotional and absolutely perfect.

Tamiko & David met on Tinder back in 2016… and they are writing a beautiful love story together.

They love their ability to be on the same team and love each other unconditionally ❤︎

Tamiko & David enjoy going out to eat, movies, going to the beach, spending time together.

Their wedding day truly was an intimate gathering of family and friends, a beautiful beach ceremony, simple but chic followed by a joyous celebration of music food and dancing.

We love how they incorporated a Filipino tradition into the ceremony with the Chord Ceremony (wedding lasso) and during their reception they danced the night away with Caribbean music which was just what their guests needed. 

We truly wish ALL the best for Tamiko & David and hope for many more dance parties with theist loved in their future (these people can dance!). So much fun!

Cheers to an amazing couple.
