Lisa + Tim Step Into The Limelight | | SUNKEN GARDENS | ST. PETERSBURG, FL

Tim and Lisa had a chance meeting at a local St. Pete restaurant in January of 2020. They ended up sitting next to each other and found out they shared many common interests including their areas of work. After their meal, Tim accompanied Lisa to see a live band play…

On April 1, 2022, Tim planned out an unforgettable April fools joke. He told Lisa their plans were a dinner with his new boss to keep his secret plan from being spoiled. Instead, he planned a picnic at Vinoy Park where he would propose to her. Rain thwarted his picnic plans, but he proposed anyway. He then surprised her with her friends and family at a karaoke bar. They sang the rest of the night away, concluding his amazing and unforgettable prank.

 Reliving their first encounter, Tim and Lisa love to see live music and attend music festivals together. They take traveling to the next level and love trying new and amazing foods and wine. As much as they love dining out, Tim loves to cook and Lisa loves Tim’s cooking. They love being social and are always down for a social event. The wedding was the bash of a century. Both the bride and groom wanted their wedding to be a blast and they succeeded! They decided to make their wedding feel like a tasting event with amazing entertainment and skip the sit down dinner. The beautiful bride looked stunning in her lace gown! Limelight sends our well wishes to this fun and festive couple as they take on a new event in life!

Victoria + Jeremy Step Into The Limelight | Four Seasons Resort Orlando at Walt Disney World® Resort | Orlando, FL

Victoria & Jeremy were friends first…

They were friends for a while before they started dating back in 2018.
One thing you should know about Victoria is that she is a proud foodie and LOVES food… so when Jeremy popped the question to Victoria in 2021 at the Grand Floridian Hotel… she mentioned being hangry 😂 so I am sure their first meal together as an engaged couple was soo yum!
Victoria & Jeremy love to laugh together, they love spending time together and the best part, they never get bored of each other. I mean… what is better than being with your best friend, laughing and eating good food together?
Victoria & Jeremy’s wedding day was very laid back, fun yet beautifully elegant. They made sure to enjoy their time with their family, friends and each other.
We loved being able to witness these two tie the knot and we truly wish Victoria & Jeremy many more magical moments together! Cheers!

Sarah + Sam Step Into The Limelight | HYATT REGENCY CLEARWATER BEACH RESORT AND SPA | CLEARWATER, FL

We can’t get enough of Sarah and Sam.

Sarah and Sam met when they were only 15 and 16 years old. They met at church camp, became friends, and kept in touch throughout the years. Sarah moved to Tampa after college and Sam moved to Chicago. Both Sarah and Sam were in serious relationships with other people, but they were friends so they kept in touch a couple of times throughout each year. When Sarah would go to visit family, she’d fly into Chicago and Sam would never fail to offer to pick her up and take her to her parents house. Eventually, both of their separate relationships ended and they started looking forward to the drives together during visits and felt like they were becoming more than friends, but they didn’t think it would ever become serious because of the distance.

Fast forward to after they eventually started dating, here’s how Sam proposed:

“We went to church in the morning, and Sam said he made lunch reservations at Salt Rock Grill—one of our favorite places. I knew something was up when he made reservations… Sam usually isn’t a planner! We went to lunch and had a wonderful time, but lunch came and went and he didn’t propose. I thought ‘Well, whatever. I could use a nap!’. He then said he needed to help one of our friends back at the church. We stopped at the church, he went in and I chatted with my friend Jen who was standing outside. After a few minutes, I walked int to see if they needed help and it was a set-up. Sam was standing there while our friend Dan was playing guitar. Sam proposed and I said yes!”

Sarah and Sam’s wedding ceremony took place at that same church and it was so beautiful. There were many happy tears shed by everyone. Throughout the entire day, you could feel the love by the way family and friends talked about Sarah and Sam.

We are so excited for these two and the new adventure that they get to experience through married life! We pray that they continue to grow in love and rich in happiness. Congratulations, Sarah & Sam!
