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!

One of my fave bridesmaid dresses |
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! |
