The Planning
Design / Vibe / Vision

They aimed to create a timeless and elegant atmosphere for their wedding.

Proposal Story
Bobby proposed to Jessica on the white sand beaches of Seaside Florida, Jessica’s favorite place in the world, in front of both of their families. Unbeknownst to Jessica, Bobby had taken her to the beach every night a week prior to perfectly time the sunset and scope out his proposal spot. Bobby commissioned a 3ft heart shaped sand castle adorned with roses and the words “Will you Marry Me Jessica?” The families met at the beach for a sunset beach bonfire and upon Jessica's arrival, Bobby got down on one knee and proposed to Jessice in front of the sandcastle and the breathtaking sunset surrounded by their families. It was the proposal of Jessica's dreams and a night they will never forget.
The Fashion
Wedding Gown

The wedding gown by Martina Liana featured a deep V-neckline and a backless silhouette. The 3D floral elements added a touch of romance and charm. This A-line dress incorporated textured lace layered beneath Chantilly French lace, creating a soft and relaxed silhouette with a beautiful, natural texture.

Bridesmaid Dresses

The bridesmaid dresses were sourced from Show Me Your Mumu in the champagne luxe satin fabric. Each bridesmaid chose her own style, allowing them to showcase their personality and feel confident in their dress. These neutral dresses contributed to the timeless elegance of the wedding.

Groomsman Attire
All of the groomsmen wore classic black tuxedos. To add a unique and personalized touch to their attire, the groomsmen incorporated champagne accents in the form of bowties and pocket squares. This subtle color choice not only complemented the overall wedding color scheme but also added a touch of warmth and elegance to their ensembles. The soft champagne hues created a beautiful contrast with the black tuxedos, resulting in a striking visual effect that made a statement without overshadowing the timeless appeal of the attire.
The Details
Food & Drink

The couple added a personal flair to the reception by featuring three signature drinks: one for each of them and one they shared. The bride chose an Aperol Spritz, the groom picked a Bourbon Gold Rush, and their special "ours" concoction was an Espresso Martini.

Florals & Decor

Jessica and Bobby's florals and decor were nothing short of a dream. Throughout the wedding, there were exquisite touches of neutral-colored florals with green accents featuring roses, ranunculus, and baby's breath. The bridesmaids' white bouquets were delicately sprinkled with baby's breath, creating a perfect harmony with the champagne hues of their dresses. At the reception, the combination of tall white candles enclosed in glass, luxurious gold accents, and the white floral centerpieces on each table added an extra layer of elegance to the space. Each place setting featured a meticulously crafted menu wrapped in a champagne-colored napkin adorned with a touch of baby's breath. Serving as the backdrop for the five-tier cake, a rose flower wall elevated the cake-cutting ceremony into a true work of art. The cake, with its decadent layers, stood as a masterpiece against the living floral wall. The overall result was an ambiance that exuded both regal charm and intimate warmth, creating an inviting space for guests to savor and enjoy the celebration.

Wedding Cake
Their wedding cake had five layers each with an intricate design that served as a stunning focal point at the reception. The top tier of the cake featured delicate appliqué, carefully crafted to emulate the intricate lace of the bride's dress. What made it truly exceptional were the gold pearl centers that adorned the lace. These exquisite details added an opulent touch to the cake, creating a sense of regal beauty and sophistication. Just below, the second tier showcased a monogram, a replication of the couple's initials as they appeared on their wedding invitation envelope. This personalized touch added a layer of sentimentality to the cake, serving as a symbol of the couple's journey and their commitment to each other. The third tier was a simple layer that sat on the fourth tried that continued the theme of delicate appliqué emulating dress lace, adding a touch of continuity and symmetry to the cake's design. Finally, the bottom tier featured ribbon ruffles, cascading in a gentle and flowing manner.
