Tabellas Wedding // Mr. + Mrs. Elliott

I started this glorious (low humidity) ((but still hot because it IS FL in May after all)) Tabellas wedding day with Kalyn just before her first look with Andrew. Kalyn chose to forgo a bridal party which I’m seeing become more of a trend these days and let me just say I’m here for it. Normalize doing weddings YOUR way. That’s what I always say. Anyway, as Kalyn’s mom helped her with the finishing touches I set Andrew up for their first look. The bridal suite with the blooming pink bougainvilleas (and shade, that’s key) was the perfect backdrop for these two to share that moment together. After their first look we stuck to all the shady spots Tabellas had to to offer and rounded out Kalyn and Andrew’s portraits so they could get back in that A/C and cool down before their walk down the aisle. The ceremony took place under a large shady oak tree and featured a literal ring bearer. If that doesn’t perfectly describe Kalyn and Andrew’s sense of humor then just wait until you see the photos and you’ll get it. There’s nothing I love more than a couple that can let loose and just have fun together. Cocktail hour was set under the Tabellas tower where guests mingled with the newlyweds under the string lights as the sun was setting before moving across the property to the reception area. The Elliotts were announced onto the main stage where The Hit Factory Band serenaded them for their first dance. Once the sun went down the party kicked it up a notch where guests were given a plethora of lighted wands, glasses, headbands, etc. which took this Tabellas wedding to the next level. As the night came to a close, guests lined up with their wands to wish the Elliotts farewell as sparkler fountains lit up their final kiss of the evening. WHAT. A. DAY! Congrats Mr. and Mrs. Elliott!
