Real Wedding ~ Kelley and Nick Charnas

We love helping all of our brides and grooms plan the wedding day of their dreams! We recently had the pleasure of working with Kelley and Nick on their nautical themed wedding at the Sheraton Sand Key Resort in Florida!

But what do you do when it rains on your wedding day and you are all set for an outside beach ceremony? You have to go with Plan B! You can view the slideshow of their wedding day, that despite the stormy weather, was still a day full of LOVE and ROMANCE!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with two of the most amazing individuals, Martha and Watson. When we first met, I just fell in love with them because they were such a special couple. I am so thankful that they selected me to help bring their wedding dreams to life!

Their wedding was an absolute day full of love and romance! There were flowers and candles everywhere! Martha loved pink and purple and we managed to pull together the most beautiful pink and purple wedding of all time! The ceremony began in front of a gorgeous backdrop of orchids and crystals draping behind them. Martha was welcomed with an aisle full of candles and petals. As the two of them spoke their own written vows to each other, you could just feel the love between these two soul mates. As guests entered the cocktail hour, they were welcomed by the MARSONTINI, which was the signature drink of the evening and delicious passed hors d'oeuvres provided by Olympia Catering. As the introductions began into the reception, the bridal party danced in to the sounds of "Let's Groove Tonight" by Earth, Wind and Fire; which set the stage for the events that followed! Martha and Watson entered grooving on to the dance floor to the beat of "Before I Let Go" by artist Frankly and Beverly and Maze. They continued grooving into their first dance to a choreographed upbeat routine then slowing it down to Luther Vandroos' "So Amazing", which is exactly how we describe this couple!

Everyone enjoyed dinner and dancing the whole night long! It was definitely a day to always remember full of love, passion and romance! Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Ducatel! We wish you all of the happiness you both deserve! Thank you for sharing one of the most important days with us! :)

We can't wait to show you the highlight reel from Voila Cinematic, the videographers, who captured the live emotion of the day! Check back soon!

Rob and Jen's Engagement Party

Engagement Parties are a great way to introduce two families that are going to be joined on the day, their children say "I Do". Recently, we were hired to help the parents of the groom plan an intimate engagement party for their son and soon to be daughter in law. Some of our top priorities were good food and good music. Luckily, our friends from the Alan C. Thomas Group, a Jazz Trio were available and happy to play their music for this party. Food being a high priority, we recruited Circles Bistro who is well known for their fabulous food and impeccable service! Plus, we added a few details of our own to make the event more special. We kept the decor clean and simple with black linens and white satin sashes. We used white hydrangeas as centerpieces and lots of candles. Using some photos of Rob and Jen, we designed a canvas with their photos and added meaningful words like: together, loving, happiness, adored and some others to enhance the reason for the day. With their initials being R and J, we took the first letter of each of their names and painted them white. Then we tied them together with a ribbon that read, "happily ever after". It was a perfect addition to the gift table! As the guests and family members arrived, they were handed a question either about Rob, Jen or them as a couple. They had to find the answer to their question before the end of the night. This was a great way to get the two families talking and learn more about this amazing couple! It was a lot of fun and later on in the evening, everyone enjoyed hearing the stories about these two individuals that will soon become man and wife. Engagement parties are a great introduction to the couple who is about to commit to each other for the rest of their lives and gives the guests an opportunity to learn more about them as a couple! Congratulations Rob and Jen! Thank you for allowing us to be a part of one of your special days!

Thank you to all of our amazing vendors who helped make this event over the top!
