Hayley + Michael Step Into The Limelight | | SANDPEARL RESORT | CLEARWATER BEACH, FL

 It all started when Hayley went to a Steelers Home opener.  The air was filled with the cheers of thousand of fans cheering on their favorite team.  As Hayley walked to her seat she saw her self sitting next to Micheal! After that game Hayley and Micheal hit it off.  After a couple of years filled with smiles laughs and many new memories Micheal then took Hayley on a trip to Aruba. As they were there Micheal rented a yacht and proposed to her right on the water!.  Fast forward to this year, it was time to tie the knot! Even when the rain was falling Hayley walked down the aisle like a rain of sunshine. With the ceremony filled the support of all their friends and families, Hayley and Micheal said I do and walked down the aisle as husband and wife. Congratulations to the newly weds as we wish them a life time of happiness.

Allie + Justin Step Into The Limelight | THE BIRCHWOOD | ST. PETERSBURG, FL

“So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.” —Matthew 19:6.

In 2021, Allie and Justin both found themselves on Hinge. They ended up connecting, meeting, and clicking right away. These two made it official at the end of 2021 and just a little over a year later, Justin proposed!

Justin decided to coordinate with his sister to take photos. Justin’s sister likes photography and so Justin and Allie went to the St. Pete Pier for a photo shoot. At one point, Allie was posed so that she was facing out at the water, and Justin got down on one knee for when she turned around. Right after that sweet surprise, Justin had another planned! Little did Allie know that Justin also had a surprise engagement party set up with their families back at his apartment.

These two had such a sweet wedding celebration at the Birchwood in St. Pete, just a couple of blocks away from where they got engaged! With family photos outdoors in the park, a ceremony set up inside, a cocktail hour of the roof (so beautiful!), and an indoor reception, everything went so smoothly.

These two had so much fun breaking in the dance floor with their friends and family, and we hope that married life is just as sweet and fun! Congratulations to this sweet pair!

Almery + Zachary Step Into The Limelight | THE DON CESAR | ST. PETERSBURG, FL

Happily ever after…

During my first call with Almery, she said that their wedding day, though it would be beautiful, joyous and family/friend-filled, wouldn’t be the biggest day of their lives—because they are there for each other every day of the year. I really love that. 

Almery and Zach are both ambitious, family-orientated people, meaning that their wedding day was not only incredible and decorated like something out of a wedding magazine, but also that they were surrounded with friends + family who traveled from abroad to witness their union (as Almery is from Argentina), lots of smiles and hugs, and loved ones bursting with celebration!

These two first met in December of 2019 on Hinge. Their first date was actually in Almery’s restaurant in Tampa and she cooked while they had their date (I told you they were ambitious!). In September of 2021 is when they got engaged in the most romantic way ever… during a hot air balloon ride over Disney!

Everything from their engagement story, to their wedding day vows and friends’ speeches shows you how kind these two are. How in love they are! We adore this beautiful pair and wish them a lifetime of success, in both love and in their business!

Congrats to the Morrison’s!

Monique + Mark Step Into The Limelight | THE VINOY® RENAISSANCE ST. PETERSBURG RESORT & GOLF CLUB + SUNSET BALLROOM | ST. PETERSBURG, FL

So… we are slightly obsessed with Monique & Mark ❤︎
These two beautiful souls celebrated their love with so much class, we loved how elegant each detail of their wedding day was at the unique and historical Vinoy® Renaissance St. Petersburg Resort & Golf Club. Surrounded by their families and closest friends Monique & Mark tied the knot at the timeless Tea Garden during sunset.

Monique & Mark’s love shined through so beautifully, we could all feel it throughout the entire day.

On the regular, these two enjoy skydiving, gaming, rock climbing, traveling together and we loved being able to witness their excitement when they spoke about each other and their future together.

They danced the night away at the Sunset Ballroom and made sure to love on each of their guests and families. We just love the way they love and we wish Monique & Mark ALL good things in everything they do.

Congratulations to a beautiful couple ❤︎

Ana Carolina + Rolando Step Into The Limelight | Aloft Tampa Midtown | Tampa, FL

¡Los mejores! Ana Carolina & Rolando ♥️
A friend introduced them and they naturally started talking to each other.
Then the sweetest moment… while they were curled up in bed, Rolando showed Ana Carolina some engagement ring on his cell and casually said “ this ring is the one I like the most, and you? Will you marry me?”. From then on they started to plan their special day with familia y amigos.
We LOVE how they both just fit together so naturally and beautifully. Their main core is family and simply being together.
Ana Carolina & Rolando’s wedding day was flawless… all the details was thoughtful and meaningful including the lighting of the candle during their ceremony which included their sweet daughter. We loved witnessing Ana Carolina & Rolando loving on each guest and taking the time to thank everyone for being there to celebrate them. I think Ana Carolina managed to hug, talk and take a picture with everyone… it was so special to see.
Deseamos a Ana Carolina y Rolando todo lo mejor en todo lo que hacen. Sirven todas las cosas buenas. ¡Siempre!
