FLORIDA WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER // PENSACOLA PHOTOGRAPHER // TAMPA WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER // DESTINATION WEDDING
This past spring, K and A tied the knot at the beautiful 5eleven Palafox in Pensacola, Florida, surrounded by loved ones and the refreshing spring air. Their wedding was a perfect blend of modern charm and heartfelt moments, making it a day to remember for everyone involved! It was no coincidence that six years ago, A had mentioned to her dad at a wedding in Florida that she wanted to get married in the FL panhandle one day. It was truly special to see her dream come true in such a beautiful way!
A’s oldest brother, who officiated the ceremony, did an incredible job. His lighthearted jokes about being a middle school teacher and spotting anyone on their phones added a touch of humor and warmth to the ceremony.
Now to truly ended their ceremony in K and A fashion it was only fitting they wrapped it up with their favorite tequila shots. This fun tradition began with their engagement photos and continued through to their ceremony and bar afterwards during their couple portraits.
Performing their favorite karaoke song together, K’s mom joined him for the mother-son dance. It was a moment of pure fun and connection, as she had discovered his love for karaoke by overhearing him sing that very song previously.
A’s father delivered the sweetest, most heartfelt speech that left everyone in tears. During his speech, he handed them each a seashell he had picked up from the beach that morning. He carries one every day as a reminder of the good life he has, and this gesture symbolized his wish for their life together to be just as wonderful.
One of the most adorable highlights was their matching Nikes! For dancing the night away, they swapped their formal shoes for personalized sneakers, each with their last name engraved on the back. It was such a fun and unique touch. A also changed into an absolutely adorable short dress! And what a night it was! The champagne tower added a touch of elegance, and the heart-shaped cake was both charming and delicious. And the dance floor was on fire, buzzing with energy and joy the entire night!
K and A’s wedding was not just a celebration of their love but also a day of forming lifelong friendships and creating cherished memories. It was a beautiful start to their new chapter together!
