On Sunday, Heather and Jeff were married at Club Continental. Although there was a 70% chance of rain that day, we never saw a drop and enjoyed a gorgeous riverfront ceremony at sunset. In the evening, Heather and Jeff celebrated with family and friends with dinner and dancing and were sent off with a special bubble “grand exit.” Congratulations to Heather and Jeff!

Congratulations to Melissa and Dustin who were married on Saturday at Mandarin Presbyterian Church. After the ceremony, the couple joined their family and friends for dinner and dancing at the gorgeous Florida Yacht Club in Ortega. The band (Cloud 9) did a great job of keeping the party going and everyone had a blast! Best wishes to a wonderful couple!

Finally, I get to post images from Melissa’s bridal session! Yeah! I photographed the beautiful bride in early October at Epping Forest Yacht Club, but since her wedding wasn’t until Saturday, I kept the images under wraps so her fiance wouldn’t get a peek at her dress. I love the vintage, elegant feel of the lace and she was really excited to show off her cute tattoo in a fun way! Brides with tattoos are awesome

I love it when couples aren’t afraid to really personalize their wedding day and pick unique details and locations. Bobbie Jo and Bob really did a great job of making their wedding personal by incorporating a refreshing farm style into their day. The ceremony and location were both held at the Alpine Groves Park which features an old farm house and barn, with the ceremony taking place at sunset. Since there is no electricity at the park, lots of mason jar candles were on hand to light the way at night. Pumpkins, fall flowers, Coca-Cola in the bottles, sweet tea and lemonade complimented the wonderful barbeque. What a lovely day! Congratulations Bobbie Jo and Bob!

Kari and Rob were married on one of the most beautiful days of this year. Friday was gorgeous weather and perfect for an outside wedding ceremony at the Lightner Museum in St. Augustine. They exchanged vows while family and friends surrounded the bridge where the ceremony takes place. They even had their dog there as part of the wedding party! So cute! Afterwards, everyone jumped on the trolley for a quick ride to the A1A Aleworks for the wedding reception. Congratulations to Kari and Rob!

Wow! What a beautiful wedding! Ashley and Joshua are high school sweethearts that were married on Saturday. We met before the ceremony at the One Ocean Resort and Spa for photographs of the bride getting ready and portraits. What a wonderful location! Very artful and inspiring. Then the ceremony was held in the evening at Beaches United Methodist. After the wedding, we made our way back to One Ocean for dinner and dancing. Congratulations to Ashley and Joshua on a perfect day!

Congratulations to Rachel and Tom! They were married October 10 at the San Sebastian Winery in St. Augustine. Rachel and Tom are from New Jersey so this was a destination wedding for them and close family and friends. Some of my favorite elements were Rachel’s lace dress, the flowers, Tom’s uniform and the sunset we had for the first part of their rooftop reception! What a wonderful and fun evening!

Last Friday, Susie and Rob were married in beautiful downtown St. Augustine. We started the day at the Hilton Bayfront and used the private courtyard for bridal portraits and moved over to the Oldest House in St. Augustine for the ceremony. I loved all the bright colors Susie chose and her details were great including the orange shoes she wore. Loved those! After the ceremony, the wedding party boarded a trolley and headed for the reception at the gorgeous The White Room. Congratulations to Susie and Rob!

loved the fall colors!

Ain’t love grand? On Saturday, Debbie and Chris held their wedding in their own backyard where they will start their new life together. They worked hard at renovating the landscaping, putting in a new fence, setting up a tent and decorating with the help of family and friends. Every single detail of the wedding was personally touched by them. There was so much beauty because love is what really matters at a wedding. Isn’t it?
