{Jodi + Jared @St. Pete Museum of Fine Arts}

Jodi and Jared's wedding day was full of scary monsters, pumpkins, skulls, and spiders!  They tied the knot a couple days before Halloween and had a very festive wedding!  All their guests were in full costume so there were appearances by Cruella Deville, The Cat in the Hat, Fred Flintstone, ring bearer vampires, royalty, and lots of other fun characters.  Jodi wore a gown with just a small red rose on it to accent the red and black decor, during the reception she changed into a gown perfect for Halloween.  The reception looked awesome, black linens, tall red rose center pieces with little pumpkins and carmel apples as favors for their guests.  Jodi made the chocolate skull on top of the cake and Jared's chocolate skeleton cake.  Such a fun party complete with scary Halloween music all night long!  Congrats Jodi and Jared!

{Kelsey + Steve @St. Pete Museum of Fine Art}

These are some of the coolest cuff links I have ever seen.  Nintendo and Playstation (I think:-) game controllers!  Kelsey and Steve are both huge Noles fans, so it was only fitting that Steve's cuff links were Chief Osceola.  I know this because I also have a die hard Florida State fan living in my house:-) The girls wore navy and each had their own style of yellow shoes.  Kelsey's something borrowed and blue was her great grandmother's garter and six pence from her wedding.  Steve's sister gave him a very important gift for he and the groomsmen to enjoy while getting ready.  I love how the bright yellow was such a nice contrast to the deep blue.  Their guests enjoyed mini tacos, tomato caprese, and tomato soup shots with grilled cheese and then headed into the reception for dinner to dance the night away.  They even got a special congratulations tweet from a former Noles Quarterback!  Congrats Kelsey and Steve it was amazing to be a part of! xoxoxo

{Rachael + Joseph @St. Pete Museum of Fine Art}

You could feel the excitement and joy that Rachael had as she was getting ready to see Joseph  (or Opie as everyone calls him:-) in the tea garden at the Vinoy.  I love seeing people so happy!  Rachael looked stunning in her beautiful gown and she had several very meaningful details planned.  She and her sister Rebecca, her maid of honor both wore silver bracelets that on the ends had their birthstone and their mom's birthstone as well.  Rachel's mom passed away earlier this year so it was a way to have her with them.  Rachael also had a picture of when she was a little girl and a picture of her mom attached to her boquet.  I'm sure she was looking down and so proud seeing such a beautiful celebration of her memory.  The decor was purples with just a hint of pinks.  I love how the reception was lit up with purple uplighting and also white gobo's all along the super high walls.  It was a crazy fun reception with lots of funny and sweet moments.  I especially love their first dance and Rachael dancing with her dad.  It was pretty toasty outside being June in Florida.  Opie and the guys were so much fun and so patient.  We had a blast and congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs!  xoxoxoxo
