Wedding at the Grand Plaza: Erika and Shane

Sunday, December 5, 2010 1:37 am

Another beautiful beach wedding at the Grand Plaza Beach Resort! Erika and Shane were married at the end of October and dad was there to photograph their wedding. Dad also photographed their engagement session this past summer. Erika and Shane had the talented Irene of For Better For Less put together the flowers. Cari from KyleLynn Weddings is always great to work with and she was there for Erika’s hair and makeup. Expert Productions was there as the videographer and DJ. Le Cheesecake put together an awesome poker themed groom’s cake and a wedding cake with star fish and seashells. Guests loved having a cigar roller from Serafin de Cuba at the reception.

The newlyweds honeymooned in Hawaii! We hope they had a fantastic time. Thanks to Erika and Shane for having us there as a part of your big day!

Wedding at the Grand Plaza: Nanette and Jeffrey

Wednesday, June 9, 2010 12:34 am

Jason photographed Nanette and Jeff’s engagement session and was happy to see them again for their wedding at the beautiful Grand Plaza. It was a great day for a beach wedding! Family and friends gathered to see the couple exchange vows by the water and then everyone enjoyed a gorgeous sunset that evening. Nanette had her hair done by London Hair, Marsha Marie was the couple’s florist, Josh Lorenzo of Expert Productions was the DJ at the reception, and Le Cheesecake made the wedding cake. Dad liked seeing that Nanette and Jeff used their engagement pictures for different reception details like the signature frame and the card box.

Congratulations Nanette and Jeff! Best wishes for much happiness in your lives together.

Mom’s favorite part of this picture is that everyone seems to be very excited about looking out the window except for the one guy sitting on the couch watching the television.

Stacie and James at the Grand Plaza

Thursday, August 27, 2009 10:19 pm

Sunday dad joined Stacie and James for their wedding at the Grand Plaza Beach Resort, a terrific place for a wedding. Thanks so much to Corey Conroy for shooting the wedding with dad! Dad says he is a terrific person and it was great spending the day with him. Rose Garden Florist put the orange and pink tropical flowers together. Reverend Tom Greene (727-403-6308) was the officiant at the ceremony and did a wonderful job as always. Le Cheesecake made Stacie and James’s wedding cake to match the bright orange and pink wedding colors.

Stacy and James are a beautiful couple and put together a beautiful beach wedding. From ribbon wands to parasols, there were bright fun colors and details every where! The newlyweds will be enjoying the beach even more as they head to Mexico for their honeymoon. Have an awesome honeymoon and congratulations!

Stephanie and Louis at Sunken Gardens

Tuesday, May 26, 2009 1:12 am

Over a year ago, dad first met Stephanie and Louis when they booked him for their wedding and shortly after had their engagement session in St. Petersburg. They are simply an awesome couple. Mom has had a chance to get to know Stephanie through her planning and was looking forward to her wedding day and to seeing her pictures. Stephanie is a nanny for a great family that dad has photographed as well.

The wedding day finally arrived on Saturday. Stephanie and Louis had Shawna from Flawless Occasions as their coordinator. Dad has fun working with Shawna and she always does a wonderful job. Stephanie got ready at Lola Jane’s Beauty Lounge where she had her hair done in a very classic bridal updo. Stepahnie then went to her ceremony location, Trinity Lutheran Church, where Louis was waiting for the couple’s First Sight. They had the biggest happy smiles when they saw each other! Dad took some bride and groom pictures in the church and then the nearby streets before the ceremony began.

The reception was held at Sunken Gardens in St. Petersburg. Rob Sword of Sword Sounds was the DJ and did a terrific job. Guests signed a guitar instead of a guest book which will make a great keepsake. It was a wonderful celebration of Stephanie and Louis’s love and the start of their lives together, which they are both so excited about. This is the beginning of their lifetime of happiness and we wish them the best. Stephanie and Louis, even though you will be in another state you better keep in touch!

Stephanie and Michael at the Grand Plaza

Monday, May 18, 2009 11:08 pm

The Grand Plaza is a terrific location for weddings. Stephanie and Michael were married there on Thursday. Dad met Stephanie that morning at London Hair and Spa where she had her hair and makeup done before heading to the Don CeSar to get dressed. Stephanie and her bridesmaids looked beautiful! The bridesmaids wore blue dresses and carried bouquets of white and ivory made by Marsha of Marsha Marie Floral.

The ceremony on the beach had chairs with white chair covers and blue chair ribbons. Floral arrangements on white pillars were on either side of a white lattice also decorated with flowers. Amanda Gerttula of the Pink Fiddle played the violin for the ceremony music and Reverend Tom Greene (727-403-6308) was the officiant. Stephanie and Michael smiled all through their ceremony. It is wonderful to see two people soaking in the joy of their day.

The bride and groom live in Canada and many of their guests came from Canada as well. Dad had fun meeting them and getting some tips on traveling to Canada for a family vacation we might be taking. In addition to the traditional toasts, guests came up to a podium during dinner and shared limericks about the couple. The cake was made by Le Cheesecake and was white and covered in little flowers.

Congratulations Stephanie and Michael, and have a great time at Disney World! Don’t forget to buy Minnie and Mickey bride and groom ears to wear!
