{Karla + Troy @Rusty Pelican}

Karla and Troy did their first look before the ceremony with their bridal party there to celebrate!  They have the cutest little girl, Kennedy and she was so excited to see her mom walk down the aisle:-) The girls wore navy and the florals and accents were pops of green, pink, and orange.  It was a little bit of formal with a whole lot of fun.  Karla changed into a chic party dress for the reception, they love to dance and Felix definitely rocked the party! So many fun moments, congrats you two!!

{Amanda + Shreve @The Lange Farm}

Seriously, I have never seen a gown like this.  Amanda looked stunning in her ice pink gown with a flowing 3 tiered train.  You would never guess that she is a Navy helicopter pilot!  She and Shreve said their I Do's under the big oak tree at the Lange Farm.  Burgandy, silver, and pink accented the ceremony and reception.  Sylense and Linda captured their beautiful story and as I was going through the images I noticed one of our couples Bridgette and Tim, that are getting married in September this year!  Amanda and Shreve have a really amazing story, they met at Stumps Supper Club, which is were we did their engagement session and have overcome the miles apart they have had to be during their relationship, Tampa, Pensacola, Michigan, Las Vegas, Corpus Christie, San Diego and deployment for Amanda in December.  Their story was actually featured in the St. Pete Times on Sunday, you can read the full story here.

{Rachel + Chad @Centre Club}

Rachel had a couple something blues:-) Her mom sewed a little embroidered monogram with their date into the layers of her dress and she had really fun deep blue shoes.  I couldn't help but fall into the joy and excitement of the day!  Rachel is just that kind of person, she lights up the room and makes you smile.  Very few girls can pull off bright red hair and lipstick but it was the perfect look for Rachel.  Chad is totally sweet and a little more reserved but you could clearly tell how in love he is with Rachel.  She had suitcases packed for their honeymoon, but they happened to be vintage suitcases and I couldn't resist incorporating them into the romantic night photographs we did with them.  Rachel and Chad is has truly been such a treat getting to know you and your families, I hope you can look back on your wedding and re-live every moment always!
