Wedding at the Cathedral of St. Jude and Nova 535

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!

Don CeSar Wedding: Daron and Jim

Daron and Jim had a beautiful wedding at the Don CeSar on St. Pete beach.  They are a really sweet couple and deserved their special day.  Dad was happy to work with Jennifer of A Friend of the Bride again.  She was the couple’s wedding planner and she always does a wonderful job.  Linny Correa with Colours by Linny was there for beauty services.  Amy of Not From a Box made the beautiful stationary including the invitations, programs, menus, and table cards.  Daron and Jim’s flowers were done by Apple Blossoms Floral Design and Gifts and mom loved the crystals hanging off of the ceremony arrangements.  Rob Sword from Sword Sounds is an awesome DJ and had the guests partying.  Well, Rob AND the martini luge!  The linens at the reception were from Linens by the Sea and the talented bakers at Chocolate Pi made the couple’s cake.

Congratulations Daron and Jim!  Thanks for having dad there to share in your wedding celebration!

Daron was a stunning bride!
