Wedding at the Davis Islands Garden Club: Amanda and Christopher

Amanda and Chris had their engagement session just one week before their wedding.  They were so excited for their big day to arrive and dad was happy to be there to share it with them.  They were married at the Davis Islands Garden Club.  This was dad’s third wedding in a row there yet every wedding was unique to that couple.  It is beautiful to see how every couple makes their day their own.

Dad met up with Amanda that morning as she was getting ready and was excited to see one of his past brides!  Savannah (springrrlie@aol.com) was there to do Amanda’s hair and dad got to catch up with her a bit.  Amanda also had the wonderful Julie Robbins of DS Make-up there for makeup.  Rob Sword of Sword Sounds was the officiant and then rocked it out as the DJ for the reception.  The bouquets were made by Thai-Rific Orchids and Chef Michael of Let Them Eat Cake made the cake.

Amanda and Chris were lots of fun and full of smiles.  We hope that happiness they share together grows through the years.  Congratulations newlyweds!

Liza and Donald’s Wedding at the A La Carte Pavilion

Liza and Donny are an awesome couple and we are happy to finally be able to share images from their wedding!  Mom has been able to talk with Liza over emails and thinks she is wonderful.  The newlyweds are on a long honeymoon enjoying Australia and New Zealand, if they survived the jump on the Nevis Arch, the biggest bungee swing in the world!  The last we heard from them was when they were on their way there…

Their wedding ceremony was at the Pass-A-Grille Beach Community Church and the reception followed at the A La Carte Event Pavilion.  Scott from Starstruck Video was the videographer, DJ Robb of Robb Smith Productions was, you guessed it, the DJ, and Chef Michael of Let Them Eat Cake made the cake.

Liza was so much fun!  If she wasn’t posing silly with her bridesmaids she was breaking it down on the dance floor.  Liza and Donny are so sweet together and look at each other with the future in their eyes.  Their beautiful ceremony included many Filipino wedding traditions such as the veil, cord, and coin exchange.  At the end of the ceremony there was a dove release as well.

Liza and Donny are going to have a wonderful life together.  Thanks for having dad there at the start of it!

Sabrina and Rustie’s Wedding at the Don Vicente

In January dad photographed Sabrina and Rustie’s engagement session in Tampa.  They had a beautiful wedding on Saturday at the Don Vicente de Ybor.  The couple had Staci of Unique Event Design as their coordinator and she did a great job pulling everything together.  Hair and makeup was done by Wilson of Shear Artist, the florist was Forever Flowers, and at the reception linens were from Connie Duglin and the cake was made by Chef Michael of Let Them Eat Cake.

Sabrina’s shoes were gorgeous and dad thought it was a fun coincidence that the bride from the wedding the day before had the same shoes but in a different color.  It was also dad’s second day in a row working with Ben from Grant Hemond and he did a great job again.

Sabrina and Rustie are an awesome couple and dad had a terrific time at their wedding.  Their friends and family were a blast to hang out with, and the newlyweds were lots of fun as well!  Dad was so happy to be a part of their day.  Thanks Sabrina and Rustie!  Enjoy Mexico!

Christine and Jonathan at Davis Islands Garden Club

On Memorial Day, dad photographed the wedding of a terrific couple.  Christine and Jonathan came from Texas to be married at Davis Islands Garden Club.  It was a laid back and fun wedding full of laughter and love.  Christine wore a gorgeous gown and ribbon tied shoes, but really it was the happiness radiating from her all day long that made her look the most beautiful.  After the outdoor ceremony, dad took Christine and Jonathan near the water for pictures.  The day was made even better with the pretty rainbow in the background.

DJ Carey Culp was the DJ at the reception andChef Michael of Let Them Eat Cake made the couple’s wedding cake.  Dad thinks the “Mad Hatter” style of cakes are so cool!  Dad was also impressed by Christine’s amazing ring.  Jonathan worked with a designer for months to make the ring perfect for Christine, from the large center diamond to the swirl accents on the band.

Christine and Jonathan are headed to Costa Rica for their honeymoon.  We know they will have a blast!  They are such a fun and happy couple and we wish them the best.
