NICOLE + FLETCHER STEP INTO THE LIMELIGHT | ESPIRITU SANTO CATHOLIC CHURCH + THE VINOY® RENAISSANCE ST. PETERSBURG RESORT & GOLF CLUB | ST. PETERSBURG, FL
Nicole & Fletcher…
How/when did you meet each other:: We met on a cruise. Fletcher was applying to medical school and Nicole was in her 1st year of PT school. Fletcher is from Orlando and Nicole is from Clearwater/ Palm Harbor area
Fletcher and Nicole did distance for 4 years and have been together for 5 years.
How did he propose:: Fletcher proposed at the Cad'Zan in Sarasota near Christmas time in 2018. Fletcher picked a beautiful spot on the water and then we went to dinner with all the family as a surprise. Fletcher picked a time of the year that all the family could come. Nicoles brother is in medical school and Fletcher planned it so that he could attend the special engagement. Nicole was completely surprised.
What do you love about each other:: Fletcher is very open minded, patient, and is a wonderful listener. Fletcher knows that Nicoles love language is acts of service and he does small things here and there that really mean a lot to Nicole. Fletcher works hard and shows affection to Nicole by the little things like holding Nicole’s hand and kissing her forehead. Fletcher loves Nicole's crazy Italian family and welcomes their loudness and emotion-filled days together. Nicole's brother and sister love Fletcher.
Nicole is energetic, spunky and sassy. She is protective of everyone she loves but is also very silly. She laughs at her own corny jokes and works with kids as a pediatric physical therapist.
Interests/hobbies you enjoy doing together:: We love wine tasting when we are visiting the Georgia Mountains.
We love hanging out with our fur baby, louie. He is a Bernedoodle and is spoiled beyond belief. We like to hangout with friends and family. Fletcher loves watching football and played football in college so Nicole has had to get used to watching games and actually paying attention. Doing the simple things together like Saturday morning coffee on the back porch
Describe the overall story for your wedding:: We postponed our wedding 2 times because we wanted family to feel safe and comfortable coming. We want family to feel important because they are a really big part of our lives.
Nicole is Italian so there will be Italian music played. We spent time picking songs and readings for our catholic ceremony that bring people together and highlight the importance of love and caring for one another
What about your wedding makes it unique to the two of you:: It is timeless and just centered on the love we have for one another. Fletcher and I have made it through long distance and Fletcher is now in his 3rd year of medical school. So wanted our wedding to show just how strong and loving our relationship is. We have leaned on each other in times of hardship. Our love is silly and light hearted; we joke around with each other and Fletcher allows me to ugly cry.
Nicole & Fletcher’s wedding day was absolutely magical… and filled with so much family LOVE!
It was an honor to capture these beautiful moments and we wish Nicole & Fletcher ALL that is good! Cheers!
