Wedding ceremony: St. Andrew’s Baptist Church, Panama City, Florida
Reception: Callaway Arts and Conference Center, Callaway, Florida

Kelvin & Kayla’s wedding was just amazing! I loved all the special touches in the bride’s room.

Each bridesmaid had a place at the table with a framed name marker.

Here’s Kayla’s with her boquet. Check out the bling on the stems!

Some dress detail.

More bling-bling on the shoes!

Kayla always looks great, but she’s especially beautiful here.

I think this is my favorite picture of her. I love the look in her eyes.

Entering the reception, on to the first dance. Be sure to watch the slideshow. The gazebo they danced under was really amazing!

Now, I don’t usually follow couples home after the wedding, but I wanted to show you Kelvin and Kayla’s new home. Love this!

It was a beautiful, sunny day on Saturday.
Perfect for a wedding on the Gulf.

I got there plenty early enough – even before Matt arrived.
He’s cool in his shades.

…and then the guests started to arrive.

This particular little girl, as adorable as she looked,

had a little secret…

oops. I don’t think she wants anyone to know.

Anyway. Back to our wedding.
Matt, in his finery, awaiting his bride.

There’s more in the slideshow. you’ll have to watch to fill in the blanks. Click here to go see it. Wait. Read the rest of this post first, then go see it!

They said their “I do’s,” and then off to celebrate.
Thumbs up, Matt! You done good!

Now, I’m not saying this is what Matt was REALLY thinking, but it was one of MY favorite memories of the day.

“oh. wow. I … did … it …”

“I REALLY did do this!”

“yeah, baby! I DID IT!!”

Is this a FINE looking couple, or what?

And then we went to the reception at Edgewater, and they had their first dance…

And their first meal as husband and wife…

And their first cake smashing…wait. see that white blob under Matt’s tuxedo shirt cuff? It looks like Elizabeth has successfully thwarted Matt’s attempt. No first cake smashing after all.

Okay, what’s wrong with this picture? During the garter toss, the men usually come reluctantly, as if the outcome of this little tradition will effect the rest of their night. Or life. I dunno. Anyway, not ONE of them with their hands ready to grasp the garter which was flung in their direction!

Now the GIRLS, on the other hand. They’re ready. One of the bridesmaids not only caught the boquet, but was showered with rose petals as a reward for her good catch.

Matt, desiring a moment alone with his beauty, stepped outside with Elizabeth. (with me looking on, of course.)

And the end of the night.

Well, almost. All I’m saying is that Elizabeth is going to GET you groomsmen when she gets home from Jamaica! You guys might want to start thinking of ways to kiss up to her now.

Happy honeymoon, Matt & Elizabeth. and a very happy life!

What a beautiful day for a wedding!

Amy & Zac had their first kiss in Destin, Florida. They decided on a destination wedding for a final kiss to seal the deal!

Beautiful couple, beautiful family and beautiful friends!

see the slideshow here.

A beautiful, fun day was had by all! Check out this amazing bride and groom from last week. Here’s their Slideshow.

I don’t think Shelly would look ugly if she tried. well, actually, now that I recall, she did make a face during the portrait time, but she looked extremely cute!! and Justin… he’s just THE MAN! check out his cake! too cool!

I understand that Justin and Shelly were the last to get married of the guys he works with at the station. Well, they certainly did it up right!

Thank you so much for having me! I had a wonderful time celebrating with you!!

It seems my posts are more to update you lately than NEW news!

Matt & Cara…I met them both when they were preschoolers, and here they are in their adulthood.

The wedding was beautiful of course!

They married at the very same church they attended as three and four year olds, Holy Nativity Episcopal.

I had a little flashback as they were up at the altar saying their vows. I remember the little holiday presentations the little ones would perform on that very spot. And here they were today in the grandest of presentations!

I hope you enjoy their slideshow! check it out here!

Many of you have followed the first year of Isabella. She had a tea party for her first birthday celebration!

She was so exhausted from all the excitement, but she loved seeing everyone. She got some pretty cool presents too!

enjoy the slideshow!

What a beautiful couple!

I met Jeniffer less than a year ago. She’s the kind of person that you instantly love when you meet her. When I met Matt, I could see that both of their hearts were meant to be together!

They make a beautiful family!

Sweet couple!

In a low, hushed tone unmatched by over-the-top excitement, Jenise kept stating, “I’m gonna live with a BOY!”

yes, Jenise, life will be a bit different now!

The girls were so sweet, and the boys were very silly!

oh. and fret not over the cake and flower arrangements…Nemo and his friends went to live with elementary school children after the wedding. you’ll see….watch the slideshow!
