Aimee and Ben were married at the breathtaking Sea Oats property on Captiva Island, Florida. It was an intimate wedding with close family and friends who journeyed all the way from Wisconsin to witness this most happy occasion. I was inspired at every turn, found squealing with delight several times during the day, and was left utterly overwhelmed by the incredible visual aesthetic created by a talented group of vendors (see list at end of post).
Absolutely breathtaking bouquet from Isn’t She Lovely Florals. I can always count on them to surprise me with yet another artful creation that tops the last one.
Ben proposed to Aimee on the bottom of a shoe, so it was fitting that he write her a wedding day message on the bottom of her wedding day shoes. I swoon!
Fabulous antique furniture by Alter Elements made for beautiful sitting areas all around the reception site.
Nuage Designs provided the luxurious linens and chair covers, which perfectly accented the gold, lace and pearl vases custom made by Alter Elements.
White benches from Niche Event Rentals were the perfect seating arrangement for this beach ceremony…the water and sky were perfection on this day.
Custom made glitter sand by Alter Elements…you know I love this! Something sparkly = me, distracted!
Gorgeous boutonniere from Isn’t She Lovely. If only I had a shred of their creative genius!
Aimee and Ben truly have a tight knit group of family and friends. I am smitten by their connection, and this photo is one of so many that reflect their deep friendship with Maid of Honor Nyssa and Best Man Jake.
Artistic Science artfully lit the reception site…lighting is everything. I repeat: everything.
Irresistible Confections delighted us all with a chocolate fountain, sipping chocolate and monogrammed chocolate favors. Yum!
Kakes by Karen! Need I say more? The detail on each flower petal just blows my mind. Karen’s craft is outstanding, and I am always honored to photograph her cakes.
Delicious food and drinks by the one and only Prestige Catering. Shout out to Jay and crew! You guys are top notch.
Congratulations, Aimee and Ben! We can’t thank you enough for allowing us full freedom to capture your day to our heart’s content. We left with full hearts and a renewed sense of joy…especially as we heard the splashing sounds of your family in the pool after dancing the night away! What a perfect end to a perfect day.
