Palma Ceia | Tampa Garden Club Wedding | Tampa, Florida | A & K
/Congratulations to Alex & Kevin who got married this April in front of family and friends in Tampa! The day started off at her house where she was getting pampered and pumped with A LOT of awesome women! Sisters, bridesmaids, mothers, and makeup artists...this was a packed but very joyous house! We immediately had a lot of fun with the popping of champagne, toasts, and a first look for her bridesmaids to see her in her dress for the first time. It was a fantastic group! As we all know, I am obsessed with details and props to Kevin for building one heck of a coffee table which made the perfect rustic backdrop for all her details and accessories. Spot on, guys!! Once dressed we headed to The Tampa Garden Club to do some very quick bride formals before we jumped back into the car, arriving at Palma Ceia United Methodist Church where their ceremony took place. It was absolutely gorgeous - filled with stained glass from top to bottom. It made for some fantastic ceremony photos and a few post wedding formals. Next we headed back to Tampa Garden Club where there reception was to be held and I had a fun time coordinating 24 bridal party members for formals on BayShore Boulevard. We dodged cars and people in our background and I'm pretty sure I was close to heat exhaustion and losing my voice by the end of it - but beauty is pain, right? :) Heading inside to the reception I was welcomed with a gorgeous mixture of elegance and nature which paired beautifully for their table settings and decor! Alex & Kevin - your sweetheart table was to die for! After toasts, blessings and dinner the party got started - and it really was a serious party! Not a single empty space remained on the dance floor for the entire 4 hour reception. When I say these folks were having fun, I mean it! I had a blast ending my spring wedding season with such a festive and loving group of people! Every family member, every friend, every staff member at the event, and especially Alex and Kevin were as helpful and kind as could be. Thank you guys for a wonderful day and congratulations on a beautiful love story!
