The Powel Crosley Museum is a spectacular wedding venue on Sarasota Bay.[Our bridal couple chose the Crosley and the fabulous Tibor Imley of Imley Photography to capture there day. The couple used a bold palette of color to include orange, hot pink, lime green, and teal. Peacock feathers were also included in all the bouquets, corsages and boutonnieres to add interest and texture. A graduate of Ringling School of Art, the bride had a wonderful eye for color and style.

The terrace, at the Crosley was the ceremony site where the center arch was draped with off white fabric by Affairs in the Air for a backdrop. The back of the aisle was flanked by trailing greenery at the base of 2 large lanterns at the entrance. The grand stairway made for a wonderful entrance for the bride, and was treated with trailing pathos plants to soften the look of the concrete wall, that were provided through Made in the Shade Plant Rentals.

Cocktails were held following the ceremony under the gazebo and a delicious dinner served by Jaime of Simply Gourmet Catering was inside the Great Room on long feasting style tables. The tables were decorated with centerpieces of natural Manzanita branches with hanging votives, lime green orchids and the base of the arrangements included vibrant hot pink Ravel roses, orange Asiatic lilies, lime green buttons and trailing seeded eucalyptus and placed on teal table runners. For additional candle light, the bride designed transparent wraps for cylinders vases that were of the colors of the wedding which served as table numbers and also votives with an 8 hour oil light inside.

It was wonderful to be able to work with a bride who knew exactly what she wanted and had a vision where the designers at Flowers by Fudgie were able to pull it all together.

The Powell Crosley Museum was the perfect setting for this vintage themed wedding. To help carry out the theme, the bride collected milk glass vases of all sizes and shapes for the dinner table centerpieces. Each of the vases was filled with blush pink Anna roses and white hydrangea and mini champagne spray roses.

The photographer was Gina Leigh and the planner for the day was Anna Pohl of Day Planners. Thanks to Gina for providing the photos for this blog post.

The ceremony was on the logia steps under the natural arch and the back of the aisle was flanked with 2 beautiful arrangements of Anna roses. The bride carried a hand tied bouquet of Anna roses with the pave crystals nested between them. The soft tones of the roses with the candlelight made of a very romantic look.

The Crosley Museum is one of the most beautiful spots in the Sarasota, Bradenton area. Bobbi Hicks of Weddings by Bobbi helped to plan a dream wedding for this bridal couple. They choose to keep it an elegant, yet simple look of spring flowers all in white and cream tones.

The bride carried a bouquet of all freesia and her bridesmaids carried bouquets of all white tulips. The back of the logia was the setting for the ceremony and the reception was catered by Michaels on East. The tables were elegantly set with either low bowls of tulips with lily grass or tall pilsner vases of all white stock. Brett from Made in the Shade provided the plant rental which always brings warmth and hominess to the Museum.
