Real Wedding @Sunset Vistas Beachfront Suites Wedding
This was a very special day for many couples, and we were honored to officiate the wedding of Leanne and Jeffery Green on the beach at the Sunset Vistas Beachfront Suites at Treasure Island, Florida.
Jeffery and his groomsmen managed the setup of the beautiful beach theme wedding. Leanne looked simply gorgeous as she arrived on her brothers arms, processing in to the steel drum music. The aisle was decorated with starfish and bell jars filled with beach sand, starfish and sand dollars.
The couple shared their personal vows, and joined their individual sand vials together, symbolizing the joining of their lives together. In Filipino tradition, the bride and groom exchanged the aras. These are the coins that flow from the groom to the bride and back to demonstrate his willingness to support his wife and family, and her willingness to be an equal partner in the marriage.
After the ceremony, the couple and their family enjoyed a reception in the venue cafe overlooking the tropical courtyard and waterfalls. We were so honored to be such an integral part of their day.

Don CeSar Resort in St. Petersburg, Florida!
The magnificent Don CeSar was the setting for the wedding of Courtney and Eric! The rehearsal evening was cloudy and cool but for the wedding the sky was a beautiful blue and the sun was shining down on them as they exchanged their vows and rings. Courtney and Erice chose a moving religious ceremony with the reading of Genisis at the opening of the ceremony before Courtney made her entrance with her dad. Music for the ceremony and reception were provided by Grant Hemond ans Associates, and the photography was by Cameron Photography. I will post their pictures from Cameron at a future date. The flowers were designed by SeaSide Florists at the Don CeSear. Ms. Niki Soda and the staff of the Don CeSar once again demonstrated the high quality service and attention to detail that is standard practice at that venue. Congratulations Courtney and Eric!!!!!!Labels: blending rituals, customized wedding, DonCesar Resort, Religious Weddings, Sunset Wedding Tampa Bay

Kimberly and Reza's Wedding
Kimberly and Dr. Reza read their vows from a message in a bottle at the seashore of the St. Pete Beach last weekend. 
It was a very moving expression of their love as they read their personal words to each other. Little Kiernan helped mom when it came time for the blended sand ceremony. 
In addition, at the end of the ceremony, Reza and Kimberly placed loveletters they had written to each other into a locked chest, along with a bottle of wine and wine glasses. When they are preparing for the ceremony, I ask them to write their thoughts about each other that brought them to their wedding day, and seal them without showing the other. It is to be opened at some future time, a silver wedding anniversary perhaps! The music for their beach wedding was lovely.

The day was beautiful, the flower girls did a great job, and the reception was held at the Silver Sands Condominimum Clubhouse. We wish you all the best!
