The clouds and the sky painted a picture of love and Joanna and Illia walked the beach. These two love birds were a ray on sunshine while also having fun in the process. During this session you could see the love these two had for each other as we wish them a beautiful engagement. We can’t wait to see them walking down the aisle and Step Into The Limelight.

Brooke & Nick became friends while working together in the OR and through mutual friends while attending the University of Florida in Gainesville. Go Gators!
Nick then proposed while they were on a trip to The Keys. Brooke & Nick spent the day Tarpon fishing for the first time and then took an afternoon cruise on their boat where he popped the question. It was a absolutely beautiful day from start to finish and it being just the two of us was the perfect intimate proposal.
Brooke says… Nick is the most thoughtful, caring, hardworking and intelligent person she know.s He always makes her feel beautiful, special and loved and can always make her laugh.
Nick says… Brooke is one of the most compassionate people he has ever met, not just towards her friends and family, but to her animals too! She has a great sense of humor and can always make him feel loved no matter what the situation is.
Both Brooke & Nick enjoy fishing, football games and playing with their dogs (Paisley and Rookie).
For their wedding day Brooke & Nick wanted to have a fun celebration with all of their friends and family. They love the beach but wanted to keep the ceremony traditional, so they chose the gorgeous Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church where Nick attended as a child. Most of their friends and family traveled from Michigan, Florida, North/South Carolina, California, Georgia, even England and Cyprus. So they wanted to have a fun beach filled weekend for everyone to enjoy their time in Clearwater.
We so loved celebrating these two amazing people, their love for each other is undeniable and just so sweet. We wish both Brooke & Nick a lifetime of happiness and many more beautiful memories together.

After 2 times postponing, this must have been 3 times the charm. It was the most perfect day!! Devin and Mike’s story began in 2014, where they met in law school. A few years later Mike proposed at a beautiful beach in Ireland. Since their original wedding was set for May 2020, they were so excited to finally get to exchange vows in front of their loved ones. They had a beautiful rooftop ceremony, followed by an even more beautiful sunset! As many people said throughout the night, Devin and Mike compliment each other perfectly, and it’s like they’ve been a part of each other’s families for years. We were so happy to be a part of such an anticipated day and it did not disappoint! The couple had a great time catching up with all their guests and finally getting to party with them. Truly an amazing night! We couldn’t be happier for Devin and Mike, and we know they have such an amazing future ahead of them 💖 Cheers to the newlyweds!

Alexandra and Brett’s love story began a long time ago! They first met at a middle school dance, and then re-connected and began dating in high school. A few years later Brett took the next step and surprised Alexandra with a new puppy Georgia, who’s collar said “Marry Me?” And she couldn’t have been more excited! When it was time to plan the wedding, they decided on the Hyatt Clearwater since that’s the first vacation they took together from New Jersey. A few days before their big day, a hurricane was headed right this way. It was no match for this day though, and the weather couldn’t have been better for their rooftop ceremony. They have been such a big part of each other’s lives for so long it was beautiful to see them officially become one! It was such a fun and intimate celebration surrounded by their close friends and family. The love the couple had for each other, and the love their families had for each other too was so special. Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Doremus!!

It all started while out with a friend in Grand Rapids, MI October 2012 at one of their favorite spots in Michigan, HopCat. Denis met Jeff for the first time. They converted and after drawing on napkins to get to know one another, Jeff and Denise proceeded to talk and laugh all night. They got closer as time went by and started dated until one day, disguised as a birthday trip to Denise’s favorite place, Walt Disney World, Jeff custom planned an entire day. The day began with the first surprise, staying at Animal Kingdom Lodge Jambo House. They had the luxury of spending the day by the pool and watching Giraffes and Zebras stroll theSavanna from the balcony. For dinner, Jeff narrowed options to 3 locations; as fate would have it, Denise picked the one that followed his plan at Contemporary Resort. Initially begging to see the gingerbread house on display, Jeff convinced her to take a walk out by Seven Seas Lagoon. There, they were met by a captain taking them on a private boat ride to watch the “Happily Ever After’ Fireworks from Magic Kingdom. Surprise, after surprise, Jeff managed to hide a ring box in his sock; removing the ring when Denise was not looking, and got down on one knee and asked Denise to marry him. The smallest details, down to his timing, all done on his own. It made this day super special for Denise and one that she will always cherish!
Clearwater Beach was the first place they visited after moving to Florida. It was the beginning of a new chapter in their lives. Being a place they love frequenting, they wanted to share their love for their new home and this next chapter with friends and family. The Hyatt was perfect for this beautiful moment and they were so happy to celebrate their love.
“Sharing our life, in a place we love, with the people we love. We couldn’t ask for much more.” - Denise & Jeff
