Boca Ciega Ballroom - St. Pete Center

Today, we had an opportunity to be present at an Open House at the Boca Ciega Ballroom at St. Pete Center. It is a glorious venue. The ballroom was filled with beautiful centerpieces, table linens, food and flowers. The menu was delightful. The food was prepared by Rob and his staff of http://www.cateringbyroberttampa.com/ and it was delicious. The ballroom is overlooking Boca Ciega waterway and it's large windows provide a marvelous view. The room was festively decorated by Nick Schriver of http://www.decoratingelves.com/ and it had billowing white cloth flowing from the ceiling. Nick had a beautiful display of possibilities to illuminate your special event and create the perfect setting for your everlasting wedding memories.

Customized Wedding Ceremonies

Many times I meet with couples and let them know that I specialize in customized wedding ceremonies. They have no idea about the options that are available to them! I let them know that they are unique and that their ceremony should reflect their own unique style and wishes! I meet with a couple and get to know them, are they nature lovers? are they passionate about their animals? do they desire a beach wedding? a wedding beside a lighthouse? an intimate garden wedding? a large wedding? a destination wedding? an ethnic wedding? Many couples are simply unaware of all of the options available to them. I get such enjoyment out of meeting with them to discuss the options and begin from scratch to show to create a one of a kind wedding ceremony. That is perhaps what makes us different from other officiants who may have several samples for you to choose from. We take pride in our ability to spend the time with you to create exactly what you want for your special day.
