Krystan & Mitch Married!

For many reasons, Krystan & Mitch's wedding was very special for me. Krystan was the first bride to contact & book me as a Florida wedding planner. Her & Mitch reside in Portand. I love they are from the west coast & I adore they chose St. Petersburg - an amazing city. It's the best when you can just appreciate your clients & simply love corresponding with them. This tends to be the case with Hustle & Bustle brides & groom (thank Goodness!). 

About their wedding: It was important for Krystan & Mitch to incorporate elements of the Pacific NW to Florida, since they love where they live & many of their guests were traveling from there. The vibe of the day was laid back & fun, but still feeling like a wedding. 
Another huge element, was their vegan-ism. They desired to leave as little of a footprint as possible when everything was said & done. Guests, even the mega meat eaters, thoroughly enjoyed the cuisine provided by Chives Catering
Their wedding also contained feminist elements. Mitch walked down the aisle after the entire wedding party but immediately prior to Krystan, as one example. Their officiant, Lauren Miller, included many other feminist details to their personalized ceremony.
The most profound aspect to their wedding was how their personalities shined through on everything - especially when planned from across the country! 

Wedding Chicks featured this darling wedding, last week! You can see so many more details, including the darling backdrop here!

Renee Nicole Design was their incredibly sweet, fun, & perfect photographer. See her blog post regarding their wedding here!

Awesome ending to the father/daughter dance

Their program included instructions for their custom handshake. It also mentioned how fun it is to be able to look up the first things they said to each (since they met online).


Tea length dress was perfect for Krystan.

The floral tie was spot on for this occasion!

Hummingbird Nest Ranch Wedding!

Tamara & Arturo! They got married! We adored them & their families, not to mention the other amazing venues at this jaw-dropping gorgeous venue. Some of our favorite details included the custom made table runners & hummingbird table numbers. Guests were able to enjoy a Mexican breakfast bar towards the end of the evening - in the midst of dancing bliss! After the ceremony, guests followed the mariachi band on a walk around a beautiful lake, through the majestic horse stables ~ where they looked for their names on gorgeous name cards hung by colorful silk ribbons throughout the stables. Upon exiting the stables, a gorgeous view of the lake awaited them as they found their table & awaited for a fun-filled evening full of good music & delicious cuisine. What an utter JOY!
