Wedding at LaPlaya Beach and Golf Resort: Leslie and Jamie

Dad was in Naples for Leslie and Jamie’s beautiful beach wedding.  The couple live in California and dad had photographed their beach engagement session when they came to Florida in December.  Leslie and Jamie had a wedding coordinator from California to help them plan their wedding day.  Kelly from A Savvy Event was the coordinator and dad enjoyed working with her.  The team of vendors for this wedding was awesome!!  The wedding was held at the beautiful LaPlaya Beach and Golf Resort.  Leslie and Jamie had Ian from Movie Magic Productions as their videographer.  Dad loves working with him, and with Rob Sword who was the officiant and DJ.  Stephanie from Fishhawk Florist did the flowers, Jamie Lyn Cintron was there for hair and makeup, and Ella’s Cakes made the wedding cupcakes.

The pinks and greens of this wedding along with the beach details like starfish and sand dollars all looked so pretty together.  It was a great Florida summer wedding and though the weather started out looking threatening it didn’t disrupt the day at all.  Congratulations newlyweds, and thanks for having dad share in your special day!  He had a great time with you!

A La Carte Event Pavilion Wedding: Michelle and Zach

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!

Annie and Steven at the Columbia Restaurant in Ybor

Saturday was Annie and Steven’s wedding day!  Dad joined Annie that morning as she got ready for her day.  Her family had rented a historic house in Ybor through Ybor House Rentals and dad had fun reading through guest book of past visitors.  Julie Robbins and Darla Stafford were there for hair and makeup and dad always loves working with them.  Dad said it was also great working with Ian of Movie Magic Productions again.  He was the videographer for the wedding.  The ceremony was held at the Seminole Heights United Methodist Church and the reception was at the Columbia Restaurant in Ybor.  Frank Lebano was the DJ at the reception and made sure everyone had a great time, and Chantilly Cakes made the beautiful wedding cake.

Annie and Steven chose a color scheme of red with gold accents and it made the reception room feel rich and warm.  Annie looked so pretty in her embroidered gown and red high heels!  It was a fun wedding and Annie and Steven are a terrific couple with great friends and family.  Congratulations newlyweds!

Monica and Michael’s Naples Wedding

On Saturday dad was in Naples for the wedding of Monica and Michael.  They had booked with us a year ago and dad had talked to the bride’s mom, the bride, and the groom during the planning for  the big day.  Everyone had been great so dad knew the day was going to be wonderful.

Kelly with No Worries Weddings and Event Management was the couple’s wedding planner and was terrific with keeping things organized and stress-free for the couple.  The ceremony took place at the Naples United Church of Christ which had gorgeous chandeliers as well as a pipe organ.  The reception was at Vineyards Country Club and dad said it was beautiful as well.  It was dad’s second weekend in a row working with Ian of Movie Magic Productions and dad enjoyed seeing him again.  The florist was Botanicals on the Gulf and the reception had linens from Connie DuglinKakes by Karen made the cake which had pretty bows and flowers to decorate it.  The reception music was from Fifth Avenue Music.  Dad said they were a fantastic band and the guests all enjoyed the live music as well.

Monica and Michael are such an awesome couple.  Dad couldn’t stop talking about how incredibly nice they both were!  We are so happy for them and wish them happiness and love throughout their marriage.  Thanks to you both and have fun in Mexico!  Be sure to stay in touch!

Carolyn and Todd at Casa Ybel Resort

Baby sister arrived!  Pictures coming soon, but in the meantime we wanted to share Sunday’s wedding.

Sunday was Carolyn and Todd’s wedding day at Casa Ybel Resort on Sanibel Island.  Dad said Jennifer there was wonderful to work with!  Dad also got to see Darla Stafford who came down for Carolyn’s hair and makeup.  Ian from Movie Magic Productions was the videographer and the DJ was Dan from Danny Morgan Musical Services and both did a great job.

Carolyn and Todd were an awesome couple!  Dad did their engagement session and was happy to see them again.  They were so relaxed and calm the entire wedding day which made for a terrific atmosphere for them and all their guests.  The ceremony included many Jewish traditions including the breaking of the glass at the end which Todd really put some power into!  At the reception, tables were numbered with pictures of the couple’s dog.  Guests were treated to delicious food, including thick steaks that dad raved about, and had cookies as their favors.  Mom loved the wooden cake topper the couple had.  It was so cute and included their dog as well.

We wish Carolyn and Todd a happy life together and want to thank them for having dad there for their day!  We wish you both all the best!
