My Own Special Day

MY OWN SPECIAL DAY
THE MCKANSTRYS: SUMMER & JAMEEL 
July 28, 2012
Ceremony: New Mount Zion AME Church, Tallahassee, FL 
Reception: Hotel Duval, Tallahassee, FL 

Of course everyone dreams of that special day even as a child. My wedding featured simplicity, but elegance, utilizing timeless pearls and rhinestones. And who better to plan this Tallahassee wedding than (drumroll)...ME!!


Colors: Canary Yellow, Black & Ivory






Bridesmaids Bouquets - Hydrangeas



The centerpieces just added to the table. The natural structure of the room was the main attraction. 




Mini cupcakes satisfied the sweet tooth of wedding guests.

Hydrangeas and tulips were scattered to add character to different areas of the reception. 



Dava & Elgin - Miami Wedding

THE FEDRICKS: DAVA & ELGIN 
September 20, 2014
Ceremony: Riviera Presbyterian Church, Miami, FL 
Reception: Renaissance Ballrooms, Miami, FL 




Dava and Elgin's wedding ceremony utilized the architecture of the 
long-standing church. Only candle elements were added to the front of the church.  Blush pink, ivory and peach roses wrapped in a pink satin ribbon lined the aisles. Rose petals lined the aisle and created a beautiful walkway for this gorgeous bride. 


RECEPTION

The ceremony featured tall blooming centerpieces with blush roses, hydrangeas and curly willow, accented with crystals. Silver chiavari chairs were used to add a royal elegance. The purple hues of lighting added to the romanticism of the evening. Guests were wowed as they entered the room. 





A eye-catching white dance floor, which popped in the middle of the ballroom, was added for the guests to dance the night away!
