Mixon Fruit Farm in Bradenton is a fun place. Dad takes us there to do the tour and see the rescued animals. We love the big tortoise! At the farm they have Mixon’s in the Grove for weddings. It is an historic citrus grove which is wonderful as a background for a Florida wedding. Dad photographed Samantha and Jason’s wedding there and we LOVE that Samantha’s picture is on the front cover of the Mixon’s in the Grove wedding catalog!
There are a few more of dad’s images in the catalog so be sure to look through it. It is a terrific venue and dad was excited to be there again a few weeks ago for Marisol and Neil’s wedding. They say it is good luck to have it rain on your wedding day so Marisol and Neil are going to have a great life together! The rain moved the ceremony into the pavilion and the reception continued there. Dad’s favorite part of the reception were the hand painted candies. They were gorgeous!! The candies were made by Divinia Jeanne’s Chocolate Heaven (941-366-5888). Congratulations Marisol and Neal!
The hand painted candies were in a variety of colors, all absolutely beautiful!
