Janelle + Jeff Step Into The Limelight | Lido Beach Resort | Sarasota, FL

What a beautiful, love + family-filled day!

Janelle and Jeff are from Rhode Island, and so were the majority of their guests (aside from Janelle’s sweet parents). This ultimately means that their friends and family are absolutely amazing and took the time to travel from afar to celebrate this wonderful couple! Janelle and Jeff were thrilled to be surrounded by their favorite people on one of their biggest days.

A beach ceremony, a classy reception, LOTS of dancing and laughter, and let’s not forget about the incredible sunset. Truly a perfect day. We are so happy for Janelle and Jeff and their union! We wish them so much fun as they have their honeymoon here in Florida (Wedding + honeymoon all in one! You can’t go wrong with a post-wedding celebration on the gorgeous Sarasota beaches!).

Congratulations to these sweet souls.

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 ❤︎

Lisa + Tim Step Into The Limelight | | SUNKEN GARDENS | ST. PETERSBURG, FL

Tim and Lisa had a chance meeting at a local St. Pete restaurant in January of 2020. They ended up sitting next to each other and found out they shared many common interests including their areas of work. After their meal, Tim accompanied Lisa to see a live band play…

On April 1, 2022, Tim planned out an unforgettable April fools joke. He told Lisa their plans were a dinner with his new boss to keep his secret plan from being spoiled. Instead, he planned a picnic at Vinoy Park where he would propose to her. Rain thwarted his picnic plans, but he proposed anyway. He then surprised her with her friends and family at a karaoke bar. They sang the rest of the night away, concluding his amazing and unforgettable prank.

 Reliving their first encounter, Tim and Lisa love to see live music and attend music festivals together. They take traveling to the next level and love trying new and amazing foods and wine. As much as they love dining out, Tim loves to cook and Lisa loves Tim’s cooking. They love being social and are always down for a social event. The wedding was the bash of a century. Both the bride and groom wanted their wedding to be a blast and they succeeded! They decided to make their wedding feel like a tasting event with amazing entertainment and skip the sit down dinner. The beautiful bride looked stunning in her lace gown! Limelight sends our well wishes to this fun and festive couple as they take on a new event in life!

Sara + JD Step Into The Limelight | The Dewey | ST. PETE BEACH, FL

Sara and JD met very randomly in downtown St. Pete on December 22nd - but it was obviously fate! Sara’s friend struck up a conversation with JD and immediately said, you must meet my friend (me). They've been inseparable ever since. These two just get along and “get” each other! Their love for each other is easy!

JD proposed near the place where they met, on their 2-year dating anniversary. He had a sign company create yard signs leading up to popping the question. Super sweet and creative! 

Together they are super active - always on the go.The love traveling everywhere - so. many. trips. Outdoor activities - boating, paddle boarding, scootering, biking, walking. They are rarely home and even rarely turn on a tv. 

Their first date was on Pass-a-Grille Beach, so it was a perfect location to select for their beach ceremony! The color palette was simple - just lots of natural greenery and whites. After the reception at the adorable Dewey, everyone was thinking “WOW, that was fun!”
