South Seas Island Resort Wedding | Emily + Brian

The long awaited destination wedding of Emily and Brian had finally come.  We had booked Emily over a year ago, had been looking forward to their wedding for quite a long time.  On Saturday, April 27, 2013 Emily and Brian were married at South Seas Island Resort at Sunset Cove by our friend Dr. Dan Lamey.  Emily had some great details at her wedding that were beyond gorgeous.  Firstly, take a look at this tent set up on Kings Crown Lawn.  Pretty amazing.  Kakes By Karen's cake, simply elegant and always delicious.  Right down to the perfect pair of shoes, and the sparkler exit, Emily and Brian had a night to remember.  We wish them all the happiness in the world.  Congratulations to our newlyweds.  I hope you are enjoying your honeymoon in Hawaii!  xoxoxoxoxox

Casa Ybel Wedding | Tracey + Jason

Tracey and Jason had a destination wedding all the way from Jew Jersey and were married at The Casa Ybel Resort on Sanibel Island, Florida.  The couple said their own vows to each other on Sunday April 28th, 2013 while their closest friends and family watched.  For their sand ceremony they used the cutest personalized mason jars, what a great idea.  Musician Steve Farst played acoustic guitar and sang during the wedding.  His talents always wow me.  We really enjoyed spending our last wedding of the month with Tracey and Jason and all the wonderful vendors that played a part in their fabulous wedding.  Congratulations to our newest couple. xo

The Veranda | Holly + Drew | Fort Myers Wedding

The Veranda has always been one of my favorite restaurants in Fort Myers.  It is located in historic downtown Fort Myers and was built in 1902.  Wow.  The food is amazing.  Drew and Holly knew exactly what they were doing when the planned their wedding here.  On Friday April 26, 2013 they said their i-do's in the courtyard of the Veranda while a 110 friends and family watched.  Holly was such a happy and easy going bride and that carried through the entire day with nothing but smiles.  We wish you guys a life full of happiness and lots and lots of travel.  xo
We enjoyed working with Aimee Rossi Photography and the entire staff at the Veranda.  Loved the cake topper :)

South Seas Resort Wedding | Dana + Richard

Dana and Richard came all the way from Alabama to have their dream destination wedding on Thursday April 25, 2013 at South Seas Island Resort.   Their day was absolutely beautiful.  The weather was breezy and sky was blue.  Their ceremony took place at Sunset Cove and their outdoor reception was on the Kings Crown Lawn.   The moment I saw Dana I was beyond excited. After 14 years of weddings, I had yet to see a blush colored wedding dress.  Can I say LOVE!  Dana looked AMAZING.  Actually, if I were to be planing my own wedding, I would have some very similar details as Dana and Richard did.  I loved all the colorful lanterns incorporated in the decor.   Best of luck to Dana and Richard as they begin their new life together.  xo
