Heather and James had a very intimate and exclusive wedding for their friends and family on Siesta Key Beach. Throughout the day I was impressed by how their families were so authentic and happy to be part of such an important day. After the main ceremony Heather and James re-dressed for a Korean Tea Ceremony before the reception. Below are a few favorites from the day.
At just about every wedding the bride sets the tone and as stunning as Ashely looked with her trademark huge smile and positive personality she was never caught up in herself for a second. Never fussy about anything both she, Billy and their friends and family were as down to earth and as easy going as any wedding I can remember. The entire day was stress free and never rushed thanks to the planning and classy decor by Chrissy and Ideal Design Events. Special thanks to Palma Ceia Country Club, Hyde Park United Methodist Church, Florals by bay bouquet, Wedding cake by Cakes by Nomeda, Groom cake by Chantilly Cakes, Dress by Malindy Elene Bridal, Embassy limousine, Lucky Penny Band, DJ Phil with fast break entertainment, Beautiful You hair and makeup. Also thanks to Cara DeHart Lewis for second shooting and assisting. Enjoy a few favorite images and the slide show below. All images can be seen here, the password is the brides maiden name.

After a rained out session from the previous week Allison, Ben, and I had a nice blue sky and a colorful sunset at Sand Key Park. I am looking forward to their wedding at the Sandpearl resort Clearwater Beach next year.
