Wedding at the Don CeSar: Ashley and Robert

Monday, November 28, 2011 11:15 am

Jason had a terrific time at Ashley and Robert’s wedding! He photographed their engagement session in the spring and had been looking forward to their big day. They were married at the Don CeSar on St. Pete Beach. Ashley and Robert had a fantastic team of vendors and Jason was happy to be part of the team. Beth of Flawless Occasions was the wedding planner. The details looked amazing and the day ran smoothly thanks to Beth. The talented Cari of Kyle Lynn Weddings was there for hair and makeup. Dana Dineen put together the gorgeous floral arrangements. The ceremony was on the steps of the Don CeSar and John from A Perfect Witness was the officiant. Scott of Life’s Highlights was there as the videographer for the day. RJ Vida is always a great DJ and the reception room looked beautiful thanks to his up-lighting. Laurie of A Piece of Cake made the wedding cake and she always does a wonderful job. I almost needed to use a thesaurus just to describe how great all of these vendors are at what they do.

Ashley and Robert had their first look before the ceremony so they could do their wedding party photos and some of the bride and groom pictures as well. After the ceremony they had their family photos and finished with bride and groom pictures before joining their guests to party at the reception. The purple wedding color and all the details came together to create a fabulous look in the reception room. Guests enjoyed the cake pops that were at each place setting as well as cigars from the cigar roller who was there. Ashley and Robert had lots of fun with their family and friends. Jason was excited to see Lauren and Cliff, and Cliff’s awesome dance moves, at the reception!

Thanks to Ashley and Robert for letting Jason be part of their amazing wedding day. We hope Maui was a terrific honeymoon!

Clearwater Beach Wedding: Sommer and Kyle

Wednesday, March 10, 2010 11:59 pm

Sommer and Kyle had their rehearsal dinner at Crabby Bill’s Seafood. They had dad there to capture all the fun of family and friends getting together with anticipation for the next day. It was a fun night with dinner, a slide show, toasts, and guests enjoying games of Gators bean bag toss.

The wedding the next day was at the Clearwater Beach Recreation Center. Shawna with Flawless Occasions was the couple’s coordinator and she is a blast to work with. Dad also got to see the talented and kind Darla Stafford who was there for hair and makeup. Dana Dineen put together the beautiful flowers and the officiant at the ceremony was Pastor Dean Ryder. For the reception, lighting and drapery was done by Weddings Done Bright and the room looked pretty with the pink uplighting and gobo light of the couple’s names on the dance floor. Sommer and Kyle had a terrific team of vendors which continued with Wayne DeLair of DeLair Entertainment as the DJ. Delectables was the caterer and the Island Way Publix made the couple’s cake.

Sommer and Kyle are an awesome couple and dad loved spending their wedding weekend with them! Thanks Sommer and Kyle for being so wonderful! The newlyweds are heading off to Mexico for their honeymoon. Have fun!

A La Carte Event Pavilion Wedding: Michelle and Zach

Thursday, February 4, 2010 3:24 am

When Michelle talked about her wedding day, you could tell that she was just as excited (if not more!) about her future as Zach’s wife as she was about the day itself. That is always a wonderful thing. Dad had photographed Michelle and Zach’s engagement sessions last summer and was happy to join them again on their wedding day. They were married at Saints Peter and Paul Maronite Catholic Church with their reception at the beautiful A La Carte Event Pavilion. They always do such a great job with the decor and Michelle and Zach’s wedding was no exception. The ceiling was draped in fabric with crystal chandeliers hanging, and purple lighting gave a splash of color to the black and white colors of the wedding. Dana Dineen was the florist and created beautiful arrangements of white flowers for the bouquet, ceremony alter, and reception centerpieces. Ian of Movie Magic Productions was the videographer and dad was happy to work with him again. It was dad’s first time working with Tony of Grant Hemond and he did a great job playing music that kept Michelle, Zach, and their family and friends on the dance floor.

Michelle was a beautiful bride. She wore a gorgeous Anne Barge gown from Malindy Elene Couture and mom loved the detailing on the bodice. Cari from KyleLynn did Michelle’s hair with soft curls. When Zach first saw her, he looked so proud to be marrying her.

It was easy to see how loved Michelle and Zach are. Their friends and family had a wonderful time witnessing their vows and celebrating the start to their life together. Congratulations newlyweds! Many blessings to you both in your life as husband and wife!

Lauren and Glenn’s Wedding at the Mirror Lake Lyceum

Tuesday, October 13, 2009 11:35 pm

On Saturday Lauren and Glenn were married at the Mirror Lake Lyceum. They had a terrific team of vendors. Stacy of Meant to be Wed was the coordinator, the talented Darla Stafford was there for hair and makeup, Pastor Dean Ryder was the officiant, Dana Dineen was the florist, and RJ Vida of Advance Entertainment Productions helped make the reception a lot of fun.

Lauren first got in touch with dad 2 1/2 years ago as she started her planning. Dad was excited when her wedding day finally arrived! He met her that morning as she was getting ready. The couple has an absolutely adorable daughter and dad said she was awesome.

The pink uplighting at the reception looked great with the pink flower petals scattered on all the tables. Candlelight and lit centerpieces gave the room a pretty atmosphere as well. Towards the end of the reception, Lauren changed into a cute shorter dress to party!

Congratulations to Lauren and Glenn, and we wish you and your daughter lots of happiness in your lives together! Thanks for having dad there to share your day!
