Dana and James get married! Don CeSar Courtyard Wedding ~ Don CeSar South Terrace Reception

Dana and James tied the knot this summer at one of my favorites, The Loews Don CeSar Hotel in St. Pete. This was a second marriage for both of them, so it was important to plan for a day that was intimate and all about what they prioritized. Enjoying beautiful surroundings, dining with great food and drinks, surrounded by the people they loved, and making memories to last forever - that was the focus, and that is what they achieved. I loved the process with them, and was delighted to be a part of it.

Dana loved pink, black, white, with the classic look of damask and romance. I loved how the reception room turned out, because so many ladies are afraid of linens that are colorful, "busy", or they think it will be "too" much. Dana wanted what she wanted and trusted in my suggestions.... and with pink lighting, candlelight, tall centerpieces, a wedding cake to die for, and all tables covered in black and white "tuxedo"...the room was AMAZING.

They were joined in marriage in the courtyard of the hotel, then moved into the South Terrace for cocktails, dinner, and dancing. It was a night of great fun for the whole wedding party and family. Thanks to the vendors that made another one so very happy!
