Lindsay+James 10.29.11 / Seacrest Beach Florida Weddings / Seacrest Beach Florida Wedding Planners/ Bonne Terre Weddings

Lindsay + James married on October 29th 2012
They had a romantic, simple elegant wedding on the Beach in front of The Bonne Terre Beach home.
Lindsay had a wonderful style and her wedding expressed her in every way. It was an honor to be part of such a wonderful day. Lindsay and James are two very special people.   
The elegant bamboo arbor with white fabric draping provided by Serene Occasions captured the elegant and beach style Lindsay was wanting to accomplish. The amazing orchids bunched on either side of the arbor is just that extra touch.
The Shoe baskets and signs are just another added detail to encourage the guests to go barefoot.
Lindsay's bouquet design was simply stunning. The Phalaenopsis orchids, white hydrangeas, and white calla lilies in her bouquet accessorized her stunning wedding dress.
These glass bulb stakes with white Dendrobium orchids added even more to this beautiful beach wedding.











The way James looked and Lindsay was breath taking.
The October weather could not have been more perfect for this couple. There guests enjoyed a social hour with passed horderves by Pascalli Foods. After being introduced in to the reception danced their first dance with the sun setting in the back ground. Next they cut the cake and enjoyed a kiss watching the last bit of sun fading away (pictured above).

Josh + Alisha 8.29.11 / Destin, Fl Weddings / Walton County,Fl Weddings / Seacrest Beach, Fl Weddings / 30A FL Wedding Planners










Alisha and Josh are a sweet, southern couple from Tennessee. They decided to have their wedding and reception at the beautiful Bonne Terre home in Seacrest Beach, near Alys Beach in Florida. 

Alisha's energy was amazing and she didn't stop smiling the entire two days we were setting up her events! She is a very genuine girl, and was genuinely excited to be marrying Josh. This is one of those couples that leave no doubt they're in love. Josh teared up a little, Alisha teared up a little, friends and family cheered and cried and hugged and high-fived all to the happiness and success of the couple.

DJ Vladi provided two nights of music, allowing for the celebration to last throughout the weekend. I don't think one night passed without everyone ending up in the pool...including Josh's dad at the end of the reception!

Kim of Kim's Cakes did another outstanding job with a beautiful 3-tier cake adorned with orchids. Chef Rich of Pascalli Foods wowed the guests with his infamous low-country boil during the rehearsal, and for the reception he dished out a beautiful buffet. And as evidenced by the photos above, Michelle of Michelle Castle Photography captured every moment perfectly.

Thanks to all the great vendors who made this such a great event! Congratulations, Alisha and Josh!

Abby + Jesse, Emerald Coast Weddings, Beach House Weddings, Destin Weddings







Abby and Jesse had a beautiful wedding on the beach along Scenic Gulf Drive in Destin, Florida. Abby arranged for splashes of pink to mix into the event, creating a simple, intimate, and elegant affair. This couple embraced the newest trend of a mid-week wedding, allowing their guests to vacation in addition to attending their lovely wedding.
Michelle Castle of Michelle Castle Photography provided photography.
Abby and Jesse, you are a wonderful couple. We are so proud to have been a part of your wedding!

Jillian + Brayden, 30A Weddings, Destin Weddings, Alys Beach Weddings












Jillian and Brayden are both beautiful, sweet, genuine people. They were such a pleasure to work with and their friends and family were amazing, too! At their Alys Beach wedding on June 25, Brayden busted out some "mock" vows, which were handwritten signs with things like, " You are super awesome," and "I promise to be good," written on them. It was an unexpected, romantic and hilarious part of the ceremony, followed by truly heartfelt vows that he and Jillian each prepared to express a sincere love for one another. Jillian is a girl's girl, decorating with pink, pink, pink! She even dyed her adorable shoes the hot pink color of her bridesmaids dressess! Additionally, she instructed the DJ, Chuck Lawson, to play as much Michael Jackson as he wanted, keeping all her guests on the dance floor and the party going strong.
Michelle Castle of Michelle Castle Photography was thoroughly entertained, not letting one moment go uncaptured. Kim Weideman of Kim's Cakes wowed us again with her beautiful pink treats: a tiered polka-dotted wedding cake and cupcakes with swirls, each just begging to be devoured! Todd of Blue Mountain Beach Catering spread out a delectable buffet, creating not only a delicious mix of apps and entrees, but also several vegetarian inspired dishes at the Bride's request.  
What an incredible couple and an amazing day! Best wishes to you both, and thank you for including us in your most memorable day...

Stephanie and Jon-Michael, Destin Weddings, Solaris Weddings, FL Weddings

                                


   




Stephanie and Jon-Michael married at Inlet Beach on June 19, 2011. Stephanie dressed her bridesmaids in bright pink dresses, creating a beautiful contrast to the canvas of blues, greens and white sand on the beach. This couple was sweet, funny, and best of all, Southern!


The reception took place aboard Sandestin's Solaris Cruise Ship...the perfect environment for the couple's family and rambunctious friends. Southerners may have a reputation for their debonaire and charm, but they also know exactly how to cut loose and have a good time! And a rip-roarin' good time was had by awl...


Jessica Miller of Serene Occasions coordinated the day's events flawlessly and Michelle Castle of Michelle Castle Photography captured every moment. (They and their assistants even joined the fun, dressing up in costume and hopping in the FaceTime photo booth...) Kim Weideman of Kim's Cakes outdid herself once again with an elegant, white cake accented with beautiful mango callalillies. The Staff of the Solaris were on top of it, too, with fast, efficient service; and the band, Deja Vu, kept the party going all night long. Grove of Fisher's Flowers awed everyone with timeless and unique centerpieces that caught everyone's attention. Kilwin's provided the rich, mouth-watering chocolate fondue station complete with pretzels, fruits, marshmallows, graham crackers and more! In addition to all of the stunning details, Mother of the Bride, Carrie, supplied the jaw-dropping candy bar. Even the the wedding vendors (who have seen their share of candy bars) were impressed!


Stephanie and Jon-Michael, your wedding and reception will be well-remembered! We wish you the best and are honored to be part of such an important (and fun) event!
