{Paula + Brannen @Ritz Carlton Beach Club}

Pretty, pink, romantic and sweet!  I love wedding day excitement and you could defiinitely feel it as the girls were getting ready:-)  While I was taking pictures of the dresses, Paula was in the other room and I happened to catch a shot of her peeking through the curtain to wave at her nieces.  Her dad walked in to see his gorgeous daughter and I love the reaction they all had together so sweet!  The ceremony was on the lawn at the Beach Club, girls in pink, guys in gray with pink ties.  Brannen, handsome as could be waiting for Paula to meet him at the end of the asile so they could say I do!  Their ring bearer carried a sign that said "Here Comes the Bride" at the beginning and then flipped it at the end to say "and they lived happily ever after".  Paula's bouquet had a special broach that was her grandmother's who couldn't be there.  The terrace was decorated with beautiful arrangements of hydragea's and roses with gold accents and crystals.  Her sash had a rhinestone Y in the middle for her new last name.  Paula's dad had some pretty amazing dance moves as everyone danced the afternoon away!  We loved capuring your special day congrats!!! xoxoxo

{Emily + Brad @Pinecroft at Crosley Estate}

Being based in Florida, when I think Powel Crosley Estate, of course Sarasota comes to mind.  Actually, Powel Crosley Jr. was from Cincinnati Ohio and is known for radios, broadcasting, and owning the Cincinnati Reds:-)  I looked it up because I think it's so interesting.  The Sarasota Powel Crosley estate happened to be his summer home called Seagate.  Emily and Brad's wedding story that you will see here is at his original home in Cincinnati, equally as gorgeous and an amazing property.  Emily's style was very pretty and romantic, the girls wore grey, and the guys black tuxes with gray vests.  We even got a shot of Emily's dress with her mom's dress, which I really liked that she incorporated that personal detail in.  The theme was around wine, with wine corks for their table numbers and intials.  The lawn was tented and draped with tall colorful center pieces and different flavored cup cakes for their guests.  After the ceremony we had time to stop at a few history downtown locations with the bridal party, the old stone walls and beautiful sunlight was just amazing!  One of my favorite parts of the day was when Emily tossed her bouquet over the balcony her grandmother who was sitting there was surprised to have caught it, so sweet!  Here's just a little taste of their day! Congrats Emily and Brad!!! xoxoxox
