Erica & Jay

Invitations. Attire. Flowers. Decor. Cake. Lighting.

There are so many moving parts to a wedding, it’s easy to get overwhelmed and
lose that cohesive sense of flow that makes the entire event feel well-put-together.
From the bridal details to the ceremony aesthetic to the reception decor,
every aspect is an opportunity to emphasize the couple’s style (and lifestyle!) together -
which is exactly what Erica & Jay accomplished with flying colors!

Today’s post is what we think of as the “anatomy” of a wedding -
the little pieces that add up for a big impact.

Details-appreciation post ahead!

The JW Marriott’s Calusa Terrace features stunning views of open skyline and gorgeous waterfront.
It paired perfectly with the fresh citrus and organic wicker of the ceremony decor.
Tom Trovato is always bringing such creativity to his work!

Everywhere we looked all day, there were fresh florals - Tom Trovato knows how to use a space!

The Calusa Ballroom at the JW Marriott offered the perfect amount of space for Erica & Jay’s guests to gather.
To spice it up, Mobile Sound Entertainment added the whimsical lighting!

Congratulations to Erica & Jay!

Danielle & Griffin

This month’s wedding is incredibly memorable for us, and we’re excited to share it with you!
It had all of the ingredients for an amazing day:
Blushing bride & handsome groom? Yep!
Ridiculously gorgeous floral? Got it.
Professional and charismatic emcee and DJ? Definitely!
Detail-oriented coordinator to make it all run smoothly? Check!

Oh, and the photography team wasn’t bad, either 🤣

The ceremony was hosted on the Palms Pool Deck at the Sanibel Harbour Marriott -
complete with its gorgeous namesake palm trees and lush florals!

Emcee DJ Tommy provided such a memorable evening to the couple and their loved ones!

DJ Tommy opened up the party with his CO2 cannon - such a fun surprise!

Congratulations to Danielle & Griffin!

Mindy & Ryan

If there’s anything we’re most passionate about when it comes to weddings,
it’s definitely the idea that the big day is just that: a wedding!
It’s not a dress rehearsal (no re-do’s!), or a staged show (although there might be one thrown in the mix at the reception), and it’s not a studio photoshoot.
It’s a real, live event, full of moments and memories that go by at lightning speed -
and we’re there to help capture it all.
That was Mindy & Ryan’s main concern during our initial call:
they didn’t want stale, staged, tired photography, and they didn’t want the day to feel like a photoshoot.
They were getting MARRIED!
Enter: MSP.

Mission? Accomplished. See below!

Mindy’s hair and make-up were done by Charlotte & Co - a super talented beauty team
we’ve worked with before at the Hyatt (see Allison & Todd’s blog!).
We’re always excited when they are on the team, as they’re so dang good!

In case you can’t tell from how calm, cool, and collected everyone looks, this was SUCH a smooth
wedding day. With all the details in place, CocoLuna executed on delivering a laid-back,
enjoyable experience for the couple and their loved ones…
(the beauty of the Hyatt didn’t hurt either).

The aesthetic of the event design was simple, clean, and fresh.
With all-white florals, lush greenery, and an emphasis on the natural environment surrounding them,
Mindy & Ryan kept things really elegant (with help from Something Bloomed).

Ready to party? Because no one does it quite like Curate Entertainment!

Yay for Curate’s cold sparks!

Congratulations to Mindy & Ryan!

Jaclyn & Luigi

When Jaclyn walked in to a restaurant on scenic Marco Island, she wouldn’t have known
that she was about to meet her future husband. Luigi, the Italian-born proprietor, was everything
she’d been looking for in a life partner.

Fast forward, and they’re engaged! What better way to celebrate their unique love story, than by bringing Italy to Marco Island!

CocoLuna & Tom Trovato designed the absolutely perfect Italian event, from the lemon accents to the color palette, topped with the crown of a custom-made trellis dripping with bright pink floral and lush greenery.
We’ve been to Italy, and it brought back so many memories to see such a gorgeous event,
perfectly reflective of the gorgeous Italian culture it represented.

Ready to be transported to one of the most romantic countries on the planet? Scroll down!

The groom’s best man was his son - how dashing are the two of them side-by-side?
And let’s not forget the gorgeous Maid of Honor, the bride’s sister!

The Marco Beach Ocean Resort is a really special venue, featuring both expansive beach front and gorgeous, classic architecture. It was such a perfect fit for the Italian mesh of classical structures-meet-organic aesthetic.

Marco Beach sunsets are the perfect portrait backdrop!

It’s always a special moment when the bride and groom get to see their wedding day dreams come to fruition.
We captured the moment that Jaclyn saw the full design come to life, ready to host all of her loved ones!

It’s always fun to see what entertainment the couple has chosen to help them ring in married life - there’s so many choices!
Jaclyn & Luigi chose the band None Other - one of the biggest showstoppers around!

None Other really delivered a night to remember!

Congratulations Jaclyn & Luigi!
