Chau Chau & Anthony

At MSP, we use our blog for a few different things. Showcasing our style evolution (because all good things must evolve), our growth as artists, and weddings we love are just a few. One of the most exciting things we do is feature the work of other vendors in our area (and beyond!) that we just love, respect, and can’t get enough of.

We’ve partnered with Kehrin Hassan of Jet Set Wed many times over the years - we even captured her personal wedding in Marrakesh, Morocco (see that blog here!) in 2015. Our first collaboration together for 2019 was a special one - enjoy her work for Chau Chau & Anthony’s big day at the Sidney & Berne Davis Art Center!

These lovely boutonnieres, bride’s bouquet, and all other wedding floral were the gorgeous work of Kaleidoscope Floral!

This wedding gave us about a billion reasons to love Kaleidoscope Floral!
(Not that we didn’t already)

Ashlee & Thomas

“I am my beloved’s, and my beloved is mine.”

Welcome to the wedding of Ashlee & Thomas!
Wedding planning & design by CocoLuna Events

Hair & make-up by Duality Artistry, pictured here at the Sundial Beach Resort on Sanibel Island!

Another gorgeous bouquet by Tom Trovato Floral Design!

How gorgeous are these ladies? Bravo, Duality Artistry!

Birds and sunshine overhead, sand and lovely lawn beneath your feet -
what more could a girl want than the Sundial Beach Resort?

With the arch provided by the Sundial and the creative minds of CocoLuna and Tom Trovato to decorate it, it’s no surprise this beautiful ceremony centerpiece was ready for Ashlee & Thomas to say “I do”!

Few ceremony officiants are as talented as Dr. Dan Lamey -
a personalized wine dedication to the newlyweds was so perfectly done!

Oh, did we mention the amazing beachfront the Sundial has, right on the Sanibel coast?

CocoLuna + Tom Trovato = auh-mazing reception design!

Ready to party? Entertainment by A DJ with Class!

This marbled cake by LadyCakes was so pretty!

Congratulations to Ashlee & Thomas, the first MSP couple of 2019!

Jane & Adolph: New Years Eve

2 0 1 9

Who doesn’t love a rockin’ New Years Eve party?
MSP couple Jane & Adolph wanted to throw a NYE celebration their loved ones wouldn’t soon forget - so they got married!

Stunning bride, right?
Jane had the uber talented beauty team of Salon Teez in her corner for her big day!

Looking for the usual array of super pretty bridal details our blogs normally start with?
Jane customized her day to reflect exactly what was important to her and her soon-to-be,
so we started the day with portraits instead!

Ready to see one of the most unique, perfectly beach-elegant ceremonies ever?
Isn’t She Lovely thought of every detail!

Off to LaPlaya Beach & Golf Resort for the formal reception!
Decor design by Isn’t She Lovely

Lantern Lane at LaPlaya never fails for romantic portraits!

Happy New Year!
May 2019 bring you health, wealth, and happiness!

Grace & Danny

“Elegance is good taste, plus a dash of daring.” - Carmel Snow, Harper’s Bazaar

We love a good quote - and nothing could better summarize the wedding day of Grace & Danny quite like this one from the Editor-in-Chief of Harper’s Bazaar.

As you journey through the day, the elegance and good taste will speak for themselves… but the daring part?
That’s a neat little story!

When Grace contracted with her florist (Floral Artistry of Sanibel), she fully entrusted the design of her bouquet, her arch, and her reception to the creative minds on the FAS team! She told them to use their experience and expertise to craft a lush design she would fall in love with - and they NAILED it!

Living in the Tampa area, Grace & Danny selected Sanibel resort Casa Ybel to host their special day. Casa Ybel has some of the best beach front on the island, but what the couple fell in love with was the greenery around the property - we didn’t set foot on the beach the entire day!

We’ve mentioned Grace’s impeccable taste, right?

Time to meet our groom - tall, dark, and handsome Danny!
::swoon::

Few things say “Florida dream wedding” like two palm trees perfectly framing the ceremony!

They do? They did!

Congratulations Mr & Mrs!

White lillies in a contrasting tropical arrangement added tons of interest for the reception centerpieces -
they symbolize humility and devotion, which is perfect for a wedding!

One of our favorite things about the reception decor was the sweetheart dinner table!

Few things are more exciting for us than working with Steve Farst -
he provided the entertainment for our own wedding, and is so super talented.

Even better than that? The father of the bride’s speech -
thoughtful and loving, it featured a cameo by two of Grace’s favorite childhood toys!

P A R T Y

We’re so lucky to have shared in such a special day! Grace & Danny epitomize everything an MSP romance stands for, and we’ll love them always!
