Raiza and Adam's Lifelong Tour!

Raiza and Adam knew they wanted a Rock n' Roll themed wedding from the start.  They did a great job of incorporating edgy details into a still somewhat traditional wedding.  The ceremony and reception were both held at The Lake Mary Events Center (www.lakemaryeventscenter.com).  The glass rotunda overlooks a beautiful lake and the spacious ballroom has a full wall of windows with the same view.  The parents and bridal party walked in to some non-traditional processional songs, such as "Sweet Child of Mine" and "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun".  Levan's Catering (www.levans.com) provided the yummy food and drinks for the evening as well as the red and black linens.  The centerpieces of red roses and black river rocks were done by Tracey from Tuskawilla Florist (407-696-4449).  They also had guitar shaped confetti scattered on tables and personalized guitar pics as favors for guests to take home.  Jay from Liquid Entertainment (jayliquid@aol.com) kept the music rocking all night long throughout the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception.    The music themed cake was done by Michael Anthony Cakes (www.michaelanthonycakes.com), including the handmade cake topper of the mini bride and groom.  Instead of a traditional guest book, they opted for a guitar that guests signed with a metallic pen.  Edmund from Rhodes Studios (www.rhodesstudios.com) provided us with the beautiful images above as well as shooting the whole wedding day.  At the end of the evening, Raiza and Adam made their grand exit in a limousine provided by Southern Elegance Limousines (www.selimo.net).  Guests were sent home with a CD "Set List" of Adam and Raiza's Lifelong Tour.  Congratulations!             

Congratulations Sheyee and Mark!

Sheyee and Mark were such a nice, fun couple to work with.  I think our biggest challenge throughout the planning process was making decisions!  Especially on the church.  We finally chose First Baptist of Orlando's Henry Chapel (www.firstorlando.com) for them to exchange their vows and it was perfect!  The colors were a beautiful shade of purple, chocolate brown and ivory.  Instead of black tuxes, the guys opted for chocolate suits.  The cocktail hour and reception were held at the Embassy Suites Downtown Orlando (http://embassysuites1.hilton.com/en_US/es/hotel/MCODTES-Embassy-Suites-Orlando-Downtown-Florida/index.do).  Paul, Pierre, and the whole Embassy staff did a wonderful job of making the evening run smoothly.  One fun idea for the cocktail hour was having a caricaturist (www.caricatureconnection.com).  It was a great keepsake for guests and even the bride and groom.  During dinner, a romance video of the couple was shown on two big screens that are installed in Embassy's ballroom.  This video was very unique.  It incorporated interview footage of the couple, still shots, video of them walking and talking, and pictures from each of then throughout their lives.  It was really spectacular and the guests enjoyed watching it.  Visions Media (www.visionsmediausa.com) produced this video as well as the video of the wedding and all photography from the wedding day.  All the gorgeous centerpieces and the ceremony flowers were compliments of Tommy Murphy from Greenery Productions (www.greeneryproductions.com).  As always, they turned out flawless!  Al Dee Productions (www.aldeeproductions.com) was in charge of getting everyone out on the dance floor all night and they definitely did their job!  No one wanted the night to end!  The happy couple cut into a beautiful 3 tier cake from Publix (www.publix.com) that was accented with swiss dots, purple ribbon, and a whimsical cake topper.  It tasted delicious too!  At the end of the night, guests said goodbye to the newlyweds as they disappeared up Embassy's glass elevator to their presidential suite.  Thanks for the memories, Sheyee and Mark!
