Stephanie and Rob are one of the most amazing couples we have ever had the pleasure to work with for so many reasons…but the reason that stands out the most in our minds can be found at the very end of this blog post.  They got into a tree. Yes you read that correctly…after all the merriment of their Baughman Center ceremony and gorgeous brunch reception at Sweetwater Branch Inn, they literally climbed a tree.  Why?  Because they were down for anything and everything for the sake of a great photo…..yes we seriously love Stephanie & Rob!!  Their wedding was simply a joy to behold, brimming with true emotion and stunning handmade details.

Ceremony venue: Baughman Center
Reception venue: Sweetwater Branch Inn
Florist: Prange’s

Their first look:

Homemade jalapeño jelly!!!

Loved the groom’s cake!!!

This garter reversal starts out innocent enough but turns into something else entirely!!

The old “bait & switch” is just not nice…not nice at all…but still funny :)

Sarah and Tony are our favorite kind of couple…the kind that throws tradition to the wind and plans a wedding that is so personalized making it truly a celebration of them as a couple.  They wanted a casual and laid back but chic lounge type of atmosphere and South Beach was the perfect place to do it.  Being a graphic designer, Sarah designed the invitations and other paper products from cocktail stir sticks to programs to hors d’oeuvres cards.  A friend of hers also helped make unique and personalized throw pillows for the lounge furniture.  There were 5 sets of pillows with words pertaining to Sarah & Tony’s relationship.  Upon arrival, guests were greeted with a pre-ceremony mojito to start the party off right!  Be sure to check out all the unique and fun details, especially the amazing way they walked back down the aisle for the first time as husband and wife!!

Ceremony venue: South Beach Marriott
Hair & Makeup: Dee & Co. Hair Studio

Many of the personalized touches were a surprise to Tony and Sarah was so proud to show off all of her amazing creations!

We’ve been seeing these more and more…what a great alternative to a traditional guest sign-in book!! Guests are instructed to “leaf a thumbprint” and sign their name.

This was amazing!!

Loved the paella station!!

In keeping with their anti-traditional atmosphere, Sarah & Tony asked Sarah’s parents to cut the cake for them :)

We had such a great time with Ciaira & Matt at their beautiful Grand Plaza wedding!!  The pink and orange color palette was so vibrant against the backdrop of gorgeous St Pete Beach.  Ciaira & Matt were such an awesome couple to work with…the way they act towards one another is so sweet and loving…the kind of couple that smiles and giggles just by merely being near each other.  Their wedding day was brimming with joy, lots of smiles, and even a few tears.

Kristen & Ryan’s beautiful wedding at Selby Gardens was truly a celebration to remember.  It was a day filled with smiles and tenderness, and an incredible group of people.  The Gardens served as a stunning backdrop for such a wonderful event…everywhere you turn, there is something beautiful and interesting to behold.  It was truly the perfect place for such a special couple.
