This Happy Couple Chose Wynwood As Their Backdrop

I loved everything about this wedding!  To start off Marissa and Matt are one of a kind. They had a vision, they wanted different and they weren’t afraid of color. Sometimes when you choose “out of the box” there are challenges. When you have an incredible team in place you can get through anything even with a 3am install start.  So many thank yous go out to everyone involved in this spectacular wedding ceremony and festivities!

Styled Shoot at the Spanish Monastery

Part 2 of the styled shoot with celebrity photographer, Robert Evans.  From Wynwood to the Spanish Monastery – from edginess and fun to tranquility and rustic elegance.  Many good times and amazing memories with designing and producing these two shoots together.

Blooming Flowers Key Biscayne, Unearthed Vintage, Atlas Party Rental, Savvylicious Sweets,  Millenium Limo and South Beach Makeup Studio  helped bring my vision to life.

 

 

Diplomat Country Club with Romina and Moshe

When you get that phone call from someone you grew up with to help coordinate his wedding your heart flutters with excitement. That’s how I felt when I got the phone call from Moshe and got to meet his fiancee, Romina.  One of the best parts was seeing so many familiar faces at the wedding.

Diplomat Country Club staff was amazing and so much fun to work with. Kosher catering with Executive Caterers did not disappoint topped with a cake by Gallery of Cakes.  Tony O Events made the bride’s vision come to life and despite the rain and moving the ceremony indoors it was was still a magical site.  Amram Adar helped create that magic with his amazing voice throughout the ceremony.  Becca and Kevin Borge covered photography and videography without skipping a beat.  The Music Machine kept everyone on the dance floor all night with the help of Vallenato.

Wishing a lifetime of happiness to these two!

 

Celebrating February Love with Brittany & Ross

Happy 2nd Anniversary Brittany and Ross!  Flashback Friday is in full force here with this amazing couple and unbelievable wedding!  The second daughter of this incredible family getting married required the family’s Golden Beach oceanfront abode to be transformed into a magical, breathtaking venue for this couple to walk down the aisle and for so many family members and friends to party the night away.

It was such an honor coordinating this event with many of the top vendors in this industry.  It was a multiple day install with long hours but everyone did a fabulous job.  Always a thank you to the entire team!

French Elegance Direct from Paris at Vizcaya

We put together this wedding in about 2 months while me in Miami and the bride in Paris.  Halfway through the process I finally got to “meet” the bride and groom via skype and finally met the groom in person on his wedding day.  This pair has a true love story and everyone was reminded of it throughout the event.  They wanted all their guests to feel comfortable and constantly be entertained.  Guests came from all over the world to watch ALF and JMJ walk down the aisle.

Glamour and Fun at Vizcaya with Asta & Joe

I will never forget meeting Asta and Joe for the first time at the Setai.  Their dynamics at that meeting let me know that if I was chosen to plan their spectacular event, it would be an awesome ride full of personality……and that it was!

Asta had a vision and we worked with a great group of vendors to bring it to life.  Lots of customization, details and most importantly to them, making sure their friends had an amazing time. It was a destination wedding for most and South Beach was the place to be.  Guests arrived and received gift bags filled with the general goodies but we wanted to make sure everyone also had some “fun in the sun” – beach bags, coconut cups, coconut water, rum, sarongs for the ladies and straw fedoras for the gentlemen, custom shot glasses, sunscreen and more.

Vizcaya was the place to showcase the union of this duo.  Breathtaking views for a breathtaking couple with no detail left untouched.  A custom door made in Alabama (coincidentally where Asta grew up) to hold family pictures, cocktail napkins with sayings, custom props in the photo booth, “cigarette” girls and guys handing out everything from mints, to custom sunglasses and test tube shots.

There was no shortage of spectacular entertainment – Libido got everyone on the dance floor throughout the night and then DJ Blaze took over with the incredible electric violinist brought in from New York, Sarah Charness.

The images for this one speak for themselves.  Thank you PS Photography!

Alyssa and Jeff Come Home

Working with Alyssa and her family on planning her wedding day was amazing.  It is always nice when it feels like “coming home”.  Mine and Alyssa’s family have known each other forever and the month before her wedding I had the honor of doing her cousin Mara’s wedding.  

There were a lot of things to think about when we started the planning process…..mainly, we had to find a date that wasn’t going to coincide with any big sporting event.  We succeeded and a beautiful wedding was planned at the Coral Gables Country Club.  Of course we made sure that Alyssa and Jeff’s personalities rang through so when they wanted to surprise everyone with their grand entrance introduction being made by the announcer of the Miami Heat my lips were sealed.

Alyssa and Jeff both grew up in South Florida but have spent years in Atlanta.  Their families are large and friends plentiful – boy do they know how to party!  Everyone was on the dance floor all night celebrating this incredible couple.

Thank you Heather Funk Photography for the images.
