Breezy, Seaside Celebration at Tampa Bay Watch


Brittany + Cyrus
March 14, 2020



One of our last "normal" weddings was several months ago for this local couple who expressed so much of themselves in details - large and small.

There was Brittany's family collection of milk glass that intermingled among natural greens on the sweetheart table, guest and entry tables. Cyrus' family put together a display of Persian wedding elements. And the groom's family business, Frida's Bakery, supplied an amazing assortment of cakes and delicacies. 


With almost 150 guests in attendance, it was a "full house" indoors at TBW. The entire social hour was held on the back lawn facing the water. Then much of the upper deck was utilized for the buffet, a second bar, and high top tables. 

Although their main wedding color was sage green, they decided to keep more neutral tones in the décor. This ranged from white, champagne, and light to dark gold. 

With extra reception hours planned, the couple expanded the main room's dance floor by having us remove four guest tables after dinner. 

We are excited to share the many special moments of Brittany and Cyrus' wedding day.


 

Petal Heaven Florist in St. Pete created a wide array of arrangements - from the ceremony arbor to aisle clusters (later used on high top tables and milk jar vases on the guest tables), and personal wedding flowers. We provided our white pergola arbor as the ceremony backdrop.







 


Our hand-passed appetizers included traditional Brushetta, Buffalo-Proscuitto Pinwheels, Mini Quiche, Demi Glace Meatballs, and Marinated Mushrooms.





Brittany's grandmother's milk glass was EVERYWHERE. Her mom added lots of fresh greenery accents. 





Wild Field Greens with Raspberry Viniagrette, Cranraisins and Walnuts were pre-set at each place setting before guests entered the main reception area.



The groom's family business, Frida's Café provided these AWESOME desserts.

 













 D.J and accomplished musician, Joe Farren, provided both ceremony and reception entertainment. 




A special display of Persian wedding items greeted guests as they entered the main reception. A brief ceremony featuring a lace canopy held over the couple's head was incorporated.






An unique wedding gift to Brittany and Cyrus came after the wedding. It was a photo of the night sky on their wedding night!

Outdoor Estate Wedding!

McKenzie + Nicole

First Look

There is nothing more romantic than hosting your wedding at a beautiful, spacious estate. Here in Florida, the extended warm weather cycle provides the perfect backdrop for ceremonies and receptions all outdoors.

McKenzie and Nicole's private celebration with 100 family members and friends was held at a 4 acre vacation rental between Tampa and Tarpon Springs. Their wedding weekend offered lots of special moments to spend with bridal party members and close family members staying with them on the property. They additional rented another vacation home close by for the overflow.

Please enjoy these lovely pictures from Chelsea Wright Photography.



Two separate floors of privacy for two separate wedding parties.
