[field title=”Florals & Decor”]For florals, Mackenzie was going for loose, whimsical whites and ivory with touches of color in the centers of the flowers. Kaleidescope Floral’s beautiful white floral arrangements lined the aisle with roses for the ceremony and the reception featured white table arrangements, an arch adorning the entrance to the tent, and hanging greenery throughout wicker lanterns above the dance floor.

A “happy accident” as Bob Ross would say – occurred that day with the rental linens. The bride has chosen a soft blue patterned linen for the reception tables, but a yellow linen was sent instead. While it wasn’t the original design plan at all – the bride ended up loving the yellow even more – and we agree. It was just the pop of color needed- that made the slightly overcast Sarasota day – sunshiney in their tent![/field]
[field title=”Wedding Cake”]Wonder Cakes designed a beautiful yet simple cake for the couple. It was light blue and decorated with pressed flowers with touches of white, blue, yellow, and red. [/field]
[field title=”Readings, Ceremony Music, Reception Songs”]Mackenzie’s great uncle was their officiant. Him and her aunt have been married for over 50 years, and it was so special to the couple to have him a part of the day.

Music was a very important part of the day! There was a big NJ presence, and the couple asked their band to learn a few additional Bruce Springsteen songs which were an absolute hit. The entire wedding was on the dance floor for Born to Run.[/field]
[field title=”Special Detail #1″]From the bride: Olivia was such an amazing thought partner. We balanced old school Florida and a print from Agua by Agua Bendita that a bridesmaid wore to weave through all details: invites, signage, dance floor, etc. It really brought so much color and fun to the day, with a lot of novel details like the matches. I work in fashion for Shopbop, and it was so fun to weave in the same themes into my outfits throughout the weekend.[/field]
[field title=”Special Detail #2″]The brides mother designed a custom seashell mirror frame that was used as the seating arrangement chart. [/field]
[field title=”Special Detail #3″]To conclude their cocktail hour, the couple toasted guests with a champagne tower just as the sun set into the Sarasota Bay behind them.[/field]
