Wedding at the TradeWinds: Stacy and Rocky

Thursday, June 10, 2010 9:20 pm

Stacy and Rocky had their wedding on St. Pete Beach at the TradeWinds Resorts. Their wonderful team of vendors included Cari of Kyle Lynn Cosmetics for hair and makeup, Publix for the beautiful flowers and the cake (events0754@publix.com), Reverend Tom Greene as the officiant (727-403-6308), and Doug Decker of Grant Hemond as the DJ. The wedding colors were bright pink and orange and mom really liked how they looked on the couple’s shimmery stationary. They say rain is good luck on your wedding day and Stacy and Rocky were lucky that the rain did not start until after the ceremony and that the staff at the TradeWinds was able to move everything from the South Lawn to a ballroom inside quickly and efficiently.

Thanks to Stacy and Rocky for having dad share in your wedding day celebration! You have a terrific family and we wish you lots of happiness!

Lange Farm Wedding: Caroline and David

Wednesday, June 2, 2010 4:38 am

We are so excited to share some images from Caroline and Dave’s beautiful wedding. Dad photographed the couple’s engagement session in November and we have all been looking forward to their day for a while! Caroline and Dave were married at the Lange Farm, a picturesque venue with terrific people. The bride and groom put together an awesome team of vendors including Chad Whelan as the videographer, Pam Verschuere for flowers, Amy of Not from a Box for stationary, Alafia String Quartet for ceremony music, Mise En Place for catering, Doug Decker of Grant Hemond as the DJ, Shutterbooth for a photo booth, Kathryn Flocken of Paper Portraits for hand cut silhouette pictures used as the guest book as as favors for the guests, and Wright’s Bakery for an assortment of cakes that were both pretty and very yummy! There were so many details that were meaningful to the couple and their families and that is what really makes a wedding special. It all came together so well!

At the wedding, Caroline, Dave, and their families made dad feel like one of the family. He had such a great time with all of them. The wedding day was filled with the past, present, and future of a young couple joining their lives and their families together. Dad said it was an honor to be there to share in the love and celebration of the day. The bride’s mom, Vicki, is simply an amazing person and mom wanted to send a special thank you to her for being so fun, good-hearted, and kind. We have loved being a part of the excitement of this special time for Caroline, Dave, and their families and we cannot wait to see what wonderful blessings the future holds for them! Congratulations Caroline and Dave!

Lakeland Wedding at the Magnolia Building: Molly and David

Sunday, May 16, 2010 12:07 am

We love this group! Molly and David were married at the Magnolia Building in Lakeland. Dad has photographed the weddings for 3 of Molly’s co-workers, Erin, Katrina, and Kyla, and all of them were married at the Magnolia Building as well!

Molly and David had their ceremony at the First Presbyterian Church in Lakeland. It was a beautiful church despite the extremely grumpy church coordinator. Darla Stafford joined Molly earlier for hair and makeup. She is always terrific to work with. Doug Decker from Grant Hemond did an awesome job as the DJ too. The reception decorations came together so well! The couple used a black and white damask pattern and their colors were yellow with white and black. Mom loved all the details! There were white and black ceramic bowls with lemons, a candy buffet with all sorts of yellow and black candies, and white and black lanterns filled with flower petals and candles as centerpieces. Molly even wore little yellow flowers on her shoes!

Thanks to Molly and David for having dad there to celebrate your day. He said you two were super nice and he had a great time. Congratulations and enjoy your honeymoon!

Leah and Andrew’s Wedding at the Lange Farm

Saturday, December 19, 2009 3:53 am

Dad photographed Leah and Andrew’s engagement session 6 months ago and they had fun climbing onto buildings and splashing in the water. Their wedding day was the Sunday after Thanksgiving at the Lange Farm. This is one of dad’s most favorite locations for both the venue and the staff. He loved being there for weddings two days in a row! David and his wife from Trinity Wedding Video were the videographers and they are great to work with. Leah had the wonderful Cari of Kyle Lynn for hair and makeup. Mom loved how Leah’s hair and makeup looked! Kathy from Northside Florist did the flowers and the always terrific Doug Decker from Grant Hemond was the DJ at the reception.

Leah and Andrew had a peacock theme for their wedding. The shimmery greens and blues looked pretty together! Peacock feathers lined the ceremony aisle, and guests had programs that fanned out just like a peacock’s tail feathers. Reception centerpieces were bird cages filled with flowers and a peacock sitting on top. It was such a unique and creative idea for a theme and the couple did an awesome job pulling it together and making it look beautiful.

Congratulations Leah and Andrew!

Leah’s dress had amazing detailing! It was from Sarasota Brides.

Katrina and Brian at the Magnolia Building

Wednesday, September 23, 2009 12:11 am

On Sunday dad was in Lakeland for Katrina and Brian’s wedding at The Magnolia Building. Katrina and Brian are friends with two of our past couples. Kyla and Corey were married last October, and Erin and Eric were married three years ago. They were both married at the Magnolia Building as well! Dad said it was so awesome seeing all of them again. They are wonderful couples.

The morning of the wedding Katrina got ready at the Terrace Hotel. She had Julie and Darla Stafford there for hair and makeup. It is great for Jason whenever he gets to work with them. Katrina and Brian arranged a first sight where they were able to share the emotional first moment that they saw each other without all of their guests around. The flowers were from Petals of Lakeland. The reception was decorated with a vintage bird theme. Tables were named after birds and sketches of birds were on the chocolate bar favors and bags at the candy bar. Doug Decker from Grant Hemond was the DJ and is always terrific. Delectables Catering made the food which dad enjoyed. After the reception, dad took Katrina and Brian out for a few night pictures.

The couple is headed to Ireland for their honeymoon. That is going to be an amazing trip! Have fun and congratulations Katrina and Brian!
