{Joanna + Scott}

6.12.10 what an amazing day!!!  Joanna and Scott's families are both Jewish so they signed the Ketubah and then had a beautiful ceremony at the Vinoy.  Joanna gave me a lot of detail on the exact traditions they were doing, the Ketubah they signed had a purple band which was feminine, green band for masculine and blue band that brought both of them together as a couple.  It was totally a crowd of Florida State fans and Joanna surprised Scott with a Ft. State Groom's cake:-)   The sunset ballroom looked gorgeous with her floral centerpieces sky and cake also draped in florals.  My favorite detail was the little bobble head bride and groom that sat by the little gift bags of treats for their guests to take home.  We definitely had a blast and we honored to be able to capture so many fun moments!! Congrats Joanna and Scott!!

Joshua + Jessica Engaged!

When we do an engagement session it's usually after the couple is already engaged. This one Sylense got to actually capture Josh and Jessica getting engaged!!

Josh took Jessica to the Vinoy for a nice birthday dinner, or so she thought!  He wrote a cute message and stuck it in a bottle to float in a fountain in the garden at the hotel. They went for a walk in the garden and told his two sons to point out the bottle to Jessica and show it to her. She then opened the bottle and read the letter, the very last words of the letter were, "will you marry me?" then Josh got down on one knee and asked her again. She said yes with tears in her eyes and gave him a huge hug. Sweet moments, that's why we do what we do!
