Anne and Jerry were married in Florida's beautiful sunshine on April 10, 2010.

The celebration was held in Clearwater Beach at the picturesque Hyatt Regency.

Anne and Jerry chose to have a more intimate setting, inviting only close friends and family.

The ceremony took place overlooking the Gulf of Mexico, on the hotel's "Sky Terrace".

The bride's graceful bouquet was made with Hydrangea, ivory Stock, ivory Roses, and Phalaenopsis Orchids. Adorned with ivory ribbon and pearls.

The illuminated "Sky Terrace" was lined by cylinder vases with tall pillar candles and soft pink Rose petals.

Standing beside Anne was her sister, as her Matron of Honor.

The soft pink and ivory colors, of the wedding, stood out so clearly against the skyline of the Florida beach setting.

Anne wanted to have her wedding embody simplicity and elegance.

Anne's sister carried a bouquet of Hydrangea, pink Stock, pink Roses and ivory Roses.

The cocktail hour was embellished by small square vases with Hydrangea and ivory Roses.

Soft candlelight stretching into the dimly lit sky and the sound of waves breaking in the background created a very romantic setting for the reception.

"Soul meets soul on Lover's Lips."

Congratulations Jerry and Anne!

Julie and Flo Perez celebrated their tenth anniversary by renewing their wedding vows. It was a true celebration of their love. Their platinum wedding only displayed the obvious love that has grown over the last ten years of their marriage. As you will see, nothing can stop them now...

Julie and Flo celebrated this special occasion at the luxery hotel, Don Cesar, in Saint Petersburg, Florida.

March 13, 2010 was the special date and was marked with the glamorous touch of diamonds and rich colors.

27,000 white rose petals stretched down the long aisle to their union. Tall cylinder vases housed floating candles to place soft light upon the guests and ceremony.

An additional 27,000 more white rose petals and 24 cylinder vases, housing tall pillar candles and white rose petals, bathed the stairs leading to the wedding ceremony.

The only thing that outshined the sleek and modern Black Schwarzwalder Calla Lilies of the bride's bouquet, was the beauty of the bride herself. The decadent bouquet was wrapped in sheer ivory ribbon tied by a breathtaking diamond broche.

Julie's bridesmaids were dressed in black dresses and designer shoes accented with more diamond bling at the open toe.

Julie was accompanied down the aisle on the arm of her son.

Each centerpiece sat on top of a demask hat box specially ordered from etsy.com. The centerpieces themselves were 32" flare vases filled with silver branches stretching through Black Baccara Roses, symoblizing deep desire, and the most exotic and unique Burgundy Mokara Orchids.

From the branches hung crystals to highlight all of the colors of the centerpieces themselves. One branch held the handcrafted table number from etsy.com.

The handcrafted table cards displayed each table number in diamonds.  And, for true glamour, from each card hung a single, very large, round cut diamond.

To get a full sense of the "Bling", dark Mokara Orchids pomander balls were hanging from strings of crystals on the bride and groom's chairs at the reception.

The head table was showered with 18,000 red rose petals intertwined with silver branches and large crystals.

The cake was diplayed on crystal pillars and large crystals hung from the wall above the cake to only highlight its captivating beauty.

The diamond studded initial "P" sat above the cake resounding the union of the Perez family.

The cake had to be served by, nothing less than, a royal diamond cake server set.

The elaborate design of the escort table was lit by small votive candles and designed with candy favors for each of the guests. Further embellished by a 32" flare vase with floating dark Mokarra Orchids and silver branches.

Congratulations Julie and Flo! May your love always see more, not less!

  Angela and Williams wedding took place back in January of 2010.  I could not resist re-posting their wedding because it captured a true romantic wedding setting.

 Their big day took place at the historic Sacred Heart Catholic Church down town Tampa and the reception took place at the Palma Ceia Country Club.  Lauren Pauline Photography did an amazing job capturing the emotions and beauty of their wedding.

Hydrangea, Dendrobium Orchids, Vandella Roses, peach Roses, Mini Calla Lilies and ivory Stock created a romantic and lush bouquet.  

Large arrangements of Hydrangea, Roses, Myrtle and gold Curly Willow rested atop glass flare vases. Cellophane filled the inside of the vase with water to give the illusion of crushed ice.

Congratulations Angela and William!
