Ruth and Gregory at the Rusty Pelican

Mom and dad are so jealous of Ruth and Greg.  Not only did they have a beautiful wedding on Saturday, but they are going to Italy for their honeymoon!  We hope they have a wonderful trip.

Their wedding took place at the Rusty Pelican in Tampa and the couple had Beth of Flawless Occasions as their coordinator.  We’d like to send a special thanks Chris from Erin and Chris Photography for shooting with dad at the wedding!  Ruth and Greg’s other vendors included Debbie of The Bride’s Bouquet, Jodi from Grant Hemond, and Chantilly Cakes.

Ruth and Greg had a wedding party which had 25 people plus the bride and groom!  It still doesn’t break dad’s record for largest wedding party (34 people total), but it comes close.  Though the ceremony was supposed to be outside at the gazebo, the weather pushed things inside.  However, things cleared up in time for dad to bring the couple out for sunset pictures.  Ruth and Greg also added extra coverage time so that they could go to downtown Tampa for more bride and groom pictures when the wedding was over.

It was a terrific wedding with pretty details, a yummy candy bar, and of course lots of love and fun.  Congratulations Ruth and Greg, and dad says if you need a photographer in Italy he’d be happy to go with you :) .

Farrah and Paul at the Tradewinds Island Grand

Farrah and Paul came from the UK for their destination wedding here on Wednesday.  It was held at the Tradewinds Island Grand on St. Pete Beach.  The wonderful Beth of Flawless Occasions was the planner for the wedding and dad had fun spending the day with her.  Dad also enjoyed working with Rob Sword of Sword Sounds.  He was the officiant during the ceremony and the DJ at the reception and he did a great job as usual.

It was a beautiful day for their wedding.  The skies were bright blue and almost cloudless.  It made it really hot, but it also gave the guests a view of our gorgeous Florida beaches.  The wedding colors were blue and pink and Farrah and Paul had amazing flowers custom painted to fit into the color scheme.  They worked with Thai-Rific Orchids and had bouquets, boutonnieres, and corsages that were orchids hand painted in bright pink.  They looked so pretty!

After the ceremony and cocktail hour, Farrah changed to a second dress and her and Paul cut loose on the dance floor!  They had a blast at the reception and the bride, groom, and their wedding party ended the night with a jump in the pool.  That’s the way to cool off after a night of dancing!

Thanks Farrah and Paul, and enjoy your holiday in Orlando!

When Farrah asked her friends to be bridesmaids, she made them personalized satin hangers for their dresses.

Amanda and Caton at the Don CeSar

Last Saturday Amanda and Caton were married at the Don CeSar.  The couple had Beth of Flawless Occasions as the wedding coordinator and dad was happy to work with her again.  Dad was also excited to see Cara from Hearts Video who was there for the ceremony and some of the portraits.

The ceremony was in the courtyard and Amanda and Caton had John Melchinger from A Perfect Witness as their officiant.  Mom absolutely loved the orange color that the couple used throughout the wedding.  The bridesmaids’ orange dresses were really cute and the flower girls wore white with orange sashes.  The other details such as the chair bows, menus, and favor boxes brought together the orange theme very well.  RJ Vida of Advance Entertainment Productions was the DJ for the reception and kept Amanda on the dance floor most of the night.

Dad said Amanda was lots of fun!  Both Amanda and Caton are great people and have wonderful families.  Dad enjoyed being there to capture these memories for them.  Now if only the newlyweds would have decided to fly dad to Italy to document their honeymoon trip too!! :)
