Maryann + Matt Step Into The Limelight | Casa De La Geiger | Odessa, FL

Comfortable, loved, free, excited! 

Maryann and Matt are best friends, they make each other laugh and they  support each other.  They love hunting, traveling and playing golf together. Together they have three beautiful children. They originally met at a party in 2002ish, and Mat proposed on Christmas morning in 2008.  

They were married in a quick ceremony in a judge’s chambers on Valentines day several 11 years ago - so they stuck with black, wine, and blush pink colors for their big wedding celebration! Everything was classy rustic chic. The best parts of the day included the exchange of vows, dancing with each there and their parents and the speeches. 

Their whole wedding was unique. They did not stick to traditional styles and truly made their day unique to them. They even custom-crafted and built their own tables and arch!

Rachel + Samuel Step Into The Limelight | Hyatt Regency Clearwater Beach Resort And Spa | Clearwater Beach, FL

 

You know the saying “if it is meant to be, it will happen”? A few years ago, Sam met this girl named Rachel at a work beach party. They spent the entire day together but unfortunately, it didn’t go anywhere. However, those closest to them claim to just “know” a match had been made. During 2020, Sam moved into the apartment next to Rachel and they have been inseparable ever since.

Rachel and Sam love spending time outside in the sunshine, learning to cook, catching up on their favorite Netflix shows and spending quality time with their loved ones.

The couple said their “I Dos” at the beautiful Hyatt Clearwater. Even though the rain decided to make a visit, nothing could put a damper on this couple’s day. Surrounded by love and joy from their closest family and friends, Sam and Rachel consistently had a smile on their face. We loved being a part of their day! Congrats to the Youngermans!

Rachel + Jason Step Into The Limelight | The Dali Museum | St. Petersburg, FL

What a special day!! Rachel and Jason came all the way from New York for their big day. They were truly just so excited to get to marry each other and celebrate with their families, they said they weren’t so caught up in the details. But all the details were amazing! The chocolate mustaches, the Dali clock wax seal, and the ice cream bar were just a few of my favorites to name a few. They planned such a beautiful day to enjoy and they really did! They got some private time in the garden, signed their Ketubah surrounded by their families, and had the coolest ceremony on the staircase of the Dali Museum. The reception flowed out into the garden and was such a blast! From the first song everyone was out up out of their seats! We got to be a part of the Hora too and we loved getting to see Rachel and Jason SO happy. When they first met Jason talked about their wedding and Rachel thought he was crazy! But when you know you know ❤ Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Fitter, we wish you all the best!!

Lisa + Garrett Step Into The Limelight | The Vinoy® Renaissance Resort & Golf Club | St. Petersburg, FL

Classic, elegant, timeless, and a touch of vintage!

Lisa grew up locally in St Pete, but moved to New York six years ago. Lisa and Garrett met each other on June 18, 2018 in NYC at a bar on a cold rainy weekday night. Garrett thought that Lisa was out of his league, which is probably still true, but was pleasantly surprised when Lisa said yes to a second date. For their second date they spent the afternoon in Central Park, including at Tavern on the Green and the Plaza Hotel, before going to one of Lisa’s favorite Upper East Side bars. 

Garrett proposed in the middle of COVID during quarantine (4/28/2020) on her birthday in the outside space (a small garden) of their NYC apartment.  Garrett and Lisa were hosting Lisa’s hometown friend and bridesmaid, a traveling nurse, at their apartment for several months while she worked in the city. Garrett took Lisa on a long walk through Union Square while Lisa’s friend decorated the garden in our backyard. After they walked into the apartment complex, red rose pedals led to the blooming cherry blossom tree outside where Garrett proposed – on Lisa’s 30th birthday.

Together they love to travel and explore cool neighborhoods in remote locations. Some of their favorites include: Boca Grande, FL; Vail, CO; and Washington, D.C. In Colorado, they love to spend time outside – in the summer hiking near the Snake River in Summit County and in the winter on the slopes with their Epic Passes. They also love exploring restaurants in the East Village in NYC. 

The historic Vinoy in downtown St Pete set the stage perfectly for their classic, elegant, timeless wedding day, with touch a vintage accents. They were really excited about the venue and the opportunity to be with their friends and family in a variety of locations at the Vinoy – the tea garden, the mezzanine, and the ballroom. 

The most memorable moments of the wedding day included Travis officiating, Paul’s speech, and dancing with guests. At the end of the evening everyone was tired but so happy from hard partying! Their wedding was a family- and friends-oriented affair where they celebrated both the beginning of our lives together as well as the opportunity to see many people for the first time after more than a year of COVID.

Amanda + Logan Step Into The Limelight | Opal Sands Resort | Clearwater Beach, FL

One random night at a local brewery, Amanda met Logan. She wasn’t sure of him but ended up having such a great time on the first date that she knew immediately she had been wrong. A few years later, Amanda and Logan were sitting at a beautiful lake front restaurant when Logan popped the question. Well, you know the answer because here we are!

Amanda and Logan love traveling, watching movies, trying new foods and spending time together. Logan loves how Amanda is always go go go and Amanda loves how chill Logan is. Amanda loves how caring Logan is and appreciates that he keeps her fed on weeknights when she works late. Logan loves Amanda's thoughtfulness and how she puts others before herself.

The couple tied the knot at the beautiful Opal Sands. Not a cloud was in the sky and the day was filled with joy. Amanda thinks she is luckier than Logan (though, Logan would strongly disagree) because she found him. We have to say that after spending just a few hours with them, they are both the luckiest to have found each other. Congrats to the Tucks!
