The white invitations for this black tie Gasparilla Inn set the tone of this luxury Florida inspired wedding celebration. The bride and her three closest friends spent the morning getting hair and makeup done by James Griffith Salon. The bride opted for a lovely low updo with loose tendrils framing her face illuminated with picture perfect makeup. Her strapless sweetheart neckline gown was sparkling and topped with a tulle shawl. Manolo Blahnik shoes accessorized the gown with their own sparkling rhinestones. Hand tied bouquets of long stem white roses which matched the men’s boutonnieres were created by Kaleidoscope Floral. The rain did not ruin the enthusiasm of this bride and groom. We stepped outdoors for some bridal portraits underneath the cover of umbrellas. White flowers decorated the ends of the pews as the bride made her way down the aisle to say her vows. Her bridesmaids stood next to her in soft grey dresses and the groom and his groomsmen were dressed in traditional black tuxedos. NK Productions made sure every detail was perfectly planned as guests headed to an elegant tent reception with sparkling lights strung overhead. White tablecloth covered tables awaited guests decorated with large white floral centerpieces complete with glimmering white tapers and votive on each side. Place settings were made up with soft grey plates and silverware along with crystal glasses. After a delectable dinner, guests enjoyed a four-tier white textured cake with cascading white flowers. The bride shortened her dress and slipped into more comfortable shoes to celebrate. The Hit Factory Band provided entertainment for the bride and groom’s loved ones to celebrate long into the night.
