[field title=”Design / Vibe / Vision”]Ashley and Jesse’s dreamy wedding day was full of whimsical florals, modern details, and tons of personal touches and sweet family moments. From their al fresco ceremony to the chic reception design, every moment of this wedding day was picture-perfect.[/field]
[field title=”Proposal Story”]From the bride:
Our love story began in high school, where fate played a part and we met through a mutual friend. Years passed, and what started as an unexpected friendship blossomed into something much more special. Jesse asking me to be his girlfriend was the first most important yes of my life, though I didn’t realize it then.

Fast forward five years of dating and a miscarriage, we discovered we were expecting our first baby girl, our rainbow baby, Loren. Two years later, we found out we were pregnant again with our sweet boy, Cooper. As I planned our maternity session we decided on a gorgeous location in Georgia. Little did I know Jesse had planned the perfect proposal with the photographer I had booked for our maternity session. Towards the end of our photoshoot the photographer positioned me just right, so when I turned, I found Jesse on one knee, our daughter beside him. It was a moment filled with overwhelming love and excitement—a day I’ll never forget.

Our family continued to grow with the arrival of our sweet boy, Cooper, followed by our littlest sweet boy, Chase, nearly two years later. Fast forward a few months and we were finally getting married at our dream wedding on our 10 year anniversary. Together, we’ve built a life filled with so much love, laughter, and cherished memories. Each day truly feels like a dream, a testament to the incredible journey we’ve shared and the endless love our family has. 10/10 recommend marrying your best friend. [/field]

The Vault, where you can find every single moment beautifully designed by the talents at Posh Parties.

Nautical

From the couple… Charlie and Lindsey were high school sweethearts in Jupiter, Florida. Through years apart in college and pursuing their goals, they found themselves drawn together repeatedly despite distance and obstacles. After finally managing to be in the same place at the same time, Charlie got down on one knee on the very same beach where they met that lucky night 10 years prior. The wedding took place at Charlie’s family home on Jupiter Island.

Charlie and Lindsey wanted a relaxed and welcoming feel with a nautical touch for the wedding including live music on the dock for cocktail hour, lawn games and dancing under a beautifully decorated tent. The bride & groom’s love of the water, and the groom’s own business building boats, made the nautical theme a natural choice. It was nodded to throughout the day with rope as napkin ties and an oversize compass decal on the dance floor, along with custom navy and white linens in the tent. The groom even built a boat, which held beverages during the cocktail reception.

From the Bride... During the planning stages, there was a specific point that really stands out. About 4 months before the wedding, the bride got a call that the church had accidentally double booked the wedding day. As a solution, Charlie and Lindsey were married at the church on Friday, the day before the originally planned wedding, in a small, intimate ceremony with only their family present. What was initially a potential disaster ended up being the bride and groom’s best decision of the wedding. Being officially “already married” allowed the bride and groom to relax and really enjoy the big event.

My favorite part of the wedding was the cocktail hour food, even though I didn’t get to eat much of it! And my favorite moment was dancing on the dance floor surrounded by all of our friends and family. It was magic, like you could feel and see the happiness glowing around us.

From the bride…As cliche as it sounds, our story can be summed up in four words: love at first sight. We met at a college bible study and the second we saw each other, we knew. There was this feeling deep down that one day we would be husband and wife. Fast forward three years, one dog and thousands of text messages, Adrian proposed–completely out of the blue. I always thought I would know the day he proposed, but when I walked over the hill at a park one Sunday, my heart stopped beating as I saw him standing in a field surrounded by candles and holding flowers. When he asked me to marry him, I could only say yes. I can’t imagine my life without him by my side.

Our day was nothing short of magical. With the help of family and friends, it was a mixture of handmade touches and Etsy findings as we tried to combine the old and the new together. We built signs for the pathway leading from the ceremony to the reception that had the traditional vows written on them, and my flower crown was handmade using the base of my mom’s veil. We loved the search that came about with our wedding to find the perfect venue, the perfect wedding cake topper (ReadyGo on Etsy), and the perfect send off. As difficult as it was to DIY most of our wedding and plan it ourselves, it made the big day that much more special.

Jupiter Lighthouse Engagement Shoot from Jillian Tree Photography

You’ve probably guessed by now that I am an uber-romantic. That I’m the kind of girl that stays up until the wee hours of the morning watching Jane Eyre’s 100th showing, cry while reading greeting cards and count Pride & Prejudice as the greatest novel ever written. You guessed right. And on top of all of that total love of all things girly, I also happen to be the kind of gal that gets all kinds of excited for some e-session lovely. An e-session, in fact, like this darling day captured by Jillian Tree Photography. Because this, my friends, is romance and then some and you can see it all right here in the full gallery.

From Jillian Tree Photography… Britnye & Phil wanted their engagement photos to be at the Jupiter Lighthouse since she lived really close by, so we started there and also headed to River Bend Park after an outfit change.

A speech-defying backyard affair that is literally overflowing with pretty. See every last amazing moment (and there are many) captured by Michelle Kristine right here in the full gallery.

Classic Weddings

From Michelle Kristine… I’m so thrilled to share Dave and Simona’s intimate backyard wedding. I cant even try to articulate how exciting it was to watch them join their lives together. I think their reception could possibly go down in my history books as one of the most quaint, intimate, and darling little parties. I won’t lie, the decor and the setting REALLY made it for me, and theirs was just so many shades of right! Rain usually scares people away from having outdoor receptions, but I was glad that Dave and Simona braved the risks involved and pulled of a stellar backyard reception complete with yard games, a photo booth, and some delicious food! To top it off, the parents toasts were so extraordinary. Simona’s mom, only knowing very broken English, gave a tear jerking toast in Latvian, leaving all of us in tears.

There’s not much else I can say about this wedding other than the fact that I was just overflowing with joy for these two the entire day. To watch them singing “Great is Thy Faithfulness” at the top of their lungs, was almost enough to make me bawl my eyes out. I’m convinced that I have the one of the coolest jobs in the world. To capture that excitement and anticipation for an exciting life ahead of them is such a special thing to be apart of.

From the Bride and Groom… Our main goal of our wedding day was to celebrate God’s goodness and faithfulness in our lives and share it with others. We wanted an atmosphere where everybody would feel welcomed as a family member. Since Dave and I both attend the same church, we had no doubt that we wanted to have our church family to take part in the joy of joining our lives together and have them witness how God has brought two people from two different continents together here in Florida.

All the help with wedding details, its preparation, and the outcome was done by our church family, which we are greatly thankful for. We both wanted a simple, yet classy wedding that would reflect the timeless traditions of a sacred occasion. All people who were involved no matter how big or small the task was, showed the love that we share for each other and most of all for Jesus Christ. Now looking back on our big day, we now see that everything was even better than what we had hoped for!

Before the wedding we both agreed that we would not see each other until the ceremony. Even though our wedding was in the afternoon and it seemed a long time to wait till we could actually see each other, it was so worth it! We took pictures separately, exchanged letters to each other and took time to reflect on what we have learned in our relationship and the privilege and joy of joining our lives together. It was definitely one of the most beautiful moments when we finally saw each other!

Even though all weddings are about the new couple we wanted to have Christ in the center of everything we did. We also wanted our guests to feel comfortable and loved. Our cupcake reception right after the ceremony was made with the thought in mind to have great fellowship while we were taking some pictures with our immediate family. Our guests were able to enjoy over 250 cupcakes (8 flavors) made by the ladies from our church and ice cream with different toppings. Many decorations such as jars, driftwood, moss, table runners, silk flowers came from church and others we borrowed from some of our friends’ personal collections. Both Dave and I love simple style, clean lines, uncluttered spaces so we wanted to keep it that way in our wedding as well. Our main two colors were coral and grey which let us use many spring flowers and other materials from nature.

Since Dave is a graphic designer it was no doubt that we wanted to design our own invitations, RSVP cards, ceremony programs and table cards. We wanted to create a clean and refreshing look with thoughtful intentionality to both graphical and physical elements in the wedding. We also wanted consistency in our design elements. Dave made a logo and a set style that was applied to all of our print and video materials. This helped create an engaging and robust experience.

All projects for our wedding were made by us or our friends. We wanted to have a very relaxing atmosphere during our dinner reception where people could walk around, take pictures in our photo booth or play yard games. One of the coolest DIY projects was a dozen wooden flower boxes that were made out of an old fence. Our dinner reception was in our church pastor’s back yard so it was great to help them to clean up their backyard by making these flower boxes. Since the reception was outside we wanted to incorporate as much as possible from what was already found in nature. All our decorations (flower arrangements, boxes, white table, cloths, grey seersucker table runner) were there only to enhance what was already there not to take away. All flowers came from Whole Foods Market and all arrangements (including bouquets for bridesmaids and bride, boutonnieres) were arranged by our friends. We had coral colored roses, pincushions, seeded eucalyptus, lime colored and coral hypernicum, baby’s breath for our flower arrangements.

Bags and boards for the corn hole game were made by Dave’s dad who is an incredible engineer and can make anything work. All photo booth props were hand-made, inspired by different ideas from other parties. All our Welcome signs, dinner menu board, game and photo booth signs were on black chalkboard that was cut out and hand painted by our friends.

In Latvia where I grew up (a country in North-Eastern part of Europe) there is a tradition to decorate a newlywed’s car with flowers and ribbons. My mom and her husband did an amazing job to decorate our car with flowers that were made out of silk ribbon. Our church aisle was decorated with flowers made by my mom as well.

Our wedding favor was a special chocolate from Latvia wrapped in brown paper and tied with white string almost looking like a little parcel that had traveled oversees.

And celebrate we shall in the only way we know how, by sharing some Americana-inspired pretty. We owe this gorgeous dose of red, white and blue to Luminescence Studios, and you can see every last bit of the patriotic pretty right here in the full gallery.

From Luminescence Studios… Memorial Day weekend my husband and I were having a barbecue in our backyard and we saw some kids next door playing with sparklers, laughing and having the time of their lives. In that moment an idea popped in my head for a styled shoot that embraced what it means to be an American, everything that makes living in the US so amazing. So I organized a shoot that embraced red, white, and blue, Coca-Cola, sparklers, backyards, classic cars, and just plain fun.

We shot this in a friend’s Jupiter, Florida backyard, then headed on over to a local field at Riverbend Park, after a short drive with the top down in my father-in-law’s 1975 Chevy Caprice. Just in time for the Fourth of July!
