Wedding at the Grand Plaza: Stick a Fork in Kristy and Lee, They’re Done!

Saturday, July 16, 2011 11:07 pm

Kristy and Lee were married at the Grand Plaza Resort which is always a favorite of Jason’s. Kristy had the talented Cari of Kyle Lynn Cosmetics there for hair and makeup. The florist was the wonderful Heather of The Rose Garden and at the reception Josh of Expert Productions was the DJ and the beautiful cake was from A Piece of Cake.

It is always great when couples make their wedding day unique and meaningful to them as a couple. When Kristy and Lee got engaged they thought the phrase “Stick a fork in me, I’m done!” fit their situation so well that they decided to make it the theme of their wedding! There were forks of all styles and sizes throughout the day! The ring bearer carried a giant fork, there was a fork ice sculpture, a fork on the cake topper, seating cards being held by forks, forks holding hands, and beautifully engraved Mr. and Mrs. forks. Kristy, Lee, and their guests celebrated and had a terrific time.

Congratulations Kristy and Lee! You two are far from done; this is just the beginning of a new adventure!

Jason had a great time with Kate and Clint for their engagement session and he was excited to be part of their wedding day! They are really sweet couple and fun to be around too! Their wedding was at the Rusty Pelican. Dad spent the morning with Kate and her girls as they got ready for the day. The wonderful Darla Stafford and Julie were there for hair and makeup. The bouquets were from I Do Bouquets and Weddings. The wedding had a red and black theme and the ceremony site was decorated with red and black paper lanterns and ribbons. At the reception there was white and black damask with solid reds, blacks, and whites. The centerpieces had a red ribbon arrangement on top which brightened up the table tops. Ben from Grant Hemond is always a fun DJ and Laurie of A Piece of Cake made the beautiful white and black cake which sat on a cake table decorated with red rose petals and I DO letters.

Congratulations Kate and Clint! Thanks for having Jason there to share your special day with you!

I have no idea what is happening in this picture but it makes me laugh!

Wedding at the Cathedral of St. Jude and Nova 535

Saturday, March 19, 2011 5:58 pm

Dad had a terrific time with Katie and Jay at their engagement session and he had been looking forward to seeing them again on their wedding day. They are an upbeat and friendly couple and really bring out the best in one another. Their wedding ceremony was held at Our Lady’s Chapel at the Cathedral of St. Jude the Apostle and the reception followed at NOVA 535. Katie had a stylist from Salon Libelle come to Grayl’s Historic Hotel where she was getting ready. Her hair was pulled back and adorned with a few flowers which looked classic and bridal. Mom loved Katie’s bouquet made of blue hydrangea and white stephanotis. Those are two of the flowers mom had in her own bouquet! Katie and Jay’s flowers were done by Apple Blossoms Floral Design.

Guests at the reception were in for a treat. Not only did they have dinner from Amici’s Catered Cuisine but there were also mini wedding cakes on each table! The wedding cake was made by A Piece of Cake and they always do a great job. Guests also were able to eat at the ice cream bar set up with chocolate and vanilla ice cream with all the toppings. Yummy! The DJ was from Grant Hemond and Katie and Jay looked like they had a lot of fun on the dance floor.

The couple honeymooned in Italy so we are sure they had an amazing trip. Congratulations Katie and Jay! Thanks for having dad there to share in your beautiful wedding day!

Wedding at the Westin Tampa Harbour Island: Lindsay and David

Friday, December 31, 2010 3:57 am

After a beautiful engagement session with Lindsay and David, dad was excited to spend the day after Thanksgiving celebrating their wedding. They are such a sweet couple and dad said seeing them so happy and in love on their wedding day was a wonderful thing. The wedding took place at the Westin Tampa Harbour Island. Their coordinator was Brittany of Tickled Pink Brides and dad enjoyed meeting her. Lindsay and David’s other vendors on their terrific team included videographer Chad Whelan who dad always has fun with, Cari of Kyle Lynn Weddings for hair and makeup, beautiful floral arrangements by Redman Steele Floral Design Studio, Bella Musica playing music during the ceremony, the always talented Rob Sword of Sword Sounds for the DJ, a pretty cake from A Piece of Cake and decor items from Fairytale Weddings and Events (727-235-2771).

Lindsay and David had their first sight before the ceremony so that they would have time for daylight pictures of the bride and groom. It was raining a bit but dad just had the couple duck into some covered areas for pictures. The ceremony was officiated by the bride’s uncle and having someone who knows the couple always makes it more intimate and personal. At the reception the guests were treated to an ice cream bar and Florida Gators cookies to honor the University of Florida where the couple met, fell in love, and were engaged. Mom thought it was cute that the cookies weren’t put out until later in the evening and the favor tags read, “See you later… Alligator! Thanks for coming. Go Gators!” Those little personal details are what make every wedding so special for each couple.

The newlyweds enjoyed a honeymoon in Italy and France! We are sure it was an amazing trip. Lindsay and David, we hope every day of your marriage is filled with as much romance and fun as all the deep dip kisses as you shared on your wedding day. Congratulations!
