Erin & Gus

It's time to catch up on sharing some truly beautiful weddings we've had the honor of coordinating last year! I know, I know! I totally fell behind! Between shoulder surgery, three crazy wonderful boys and so many fantastic couples last year (including my own baby sister and her new hubby!), blogging got a little behind.....BUT, (New Year's Resolution Time) I'm making up for it now! :)

First up: Erin and Gus!

Erin & Gus's April wedding was one full of smiles, laughter, and love! One of my favorite things about a wedding is a happy bride, and Erin's pure happiness showed on her face all day.

We were so lucky to have a wonderful team to work with as well! These stunning images are from the fabulous Krystal Radlinski at Verve Studio!

Doesn't Erin look like a movie star?! Her hair was done by the fabulous Graceful Strands and make-up by the uber-talented Kara Winslow - seriously, my dream team!!

Her flowers were gorgeous too! The Plant Shoppe arranged all the bouquets and centerpieces in beautiful whites and green! Erin wanted something classic and very elegant, but modern enough to fit the Florida Museum of Natural History venue.

Wedding Planner Tip: See that crochet hook in my hand in the picture above with the buttons? It's the perfect tool for buttoning up long rows of buttons on a gown! Saves so much time and sore finger nails!


Since the reception was at the museum, we went there to use their beautiful gardens for Erin and Gus's first look.

Then, it was off around the corner to one of our favorite Ceremony Venues, The Baughman Center on Lake Alice.

It's such an intimate location for a ceremony and there's so many beautiful little spots for photos before and after. Not to mention the sweeping architecture and floor to ceiling windows with views overlooking the Lake.

Erin had THE BEST laugh and such a gorgeous smile!

We headed over following the ceremony to the museum for cocktails in the Butterfly Rainforest and dinner and dancing in the Main Gallery. It's such a unique location for your reception! Guests can wander through the exhibits all night and you've got a Mastodon as a special guest - how cool, right?!

My corny heart fell madly in love with their favors! I had to share them with you! :)
