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.

The Ritz Carlton Sarasota was the setting for this beautiful wedding this Spring. The wedding was set on the lawn over looking the bay with a fabric and bamboo canopy as the site for the ceremony. The aisle was flanked with single white roses tied with sheer Tiffany blue ribbon, as well as the canopy floral pieces, all in white roses and orchids, with the same sheer ribbons blowing softly in the breeze.

Crystals and Candlelight

You just cannot go wrong with candlelight for a wedding….it is so romantic to see a candle lit aisle, as was done for this wonderful couple at Saint Barbara’s Greek Orthodox Church, Sarasota. Every other pew end was adorned with white roses tucked into ivy cascading down the single candelabrum.

Maria Brady of Choreographed Events is always great to work with. She brought in special linen for the cake and head table that were just exquisite. Planning this up scaled wedding was a huge undertaking but done with easy by Maria. You will see by looking at our photo gallery that Tibor of Imley Photography, did an outstanding job capturing the event.

I do not think I have seen the Ritz Carlton Ballroom as grand with the soft lighting effect and fabric draping done by Affairs in the Air, coupled with the striking arrangements that the Fudgie designers did on site. Two styles of arrangements were used. Both in tall vases but one with long white orchids with chandeliered hanging votives and the other of tall curly willow branches with white dendrobium orchids attached and crystals garlands raining from the branches and many hanging votive candles. The branches stood 5 to 6’ tall of the tables which filled the room with it tall ceiling.

The long head table with its fabulous linen was flanked with two 36” all crystal 5 branch candelabrum topped with white orchids and then lined with dozens of candles between. The place card table in the pre function area at the Ritz had a vase of tall curly willow branches with crystals and tiny orchids on monofilament. The monofilament rained from its branches. This impressive piece was in the center of all the place cards that spiraled out from it base.

The sparkle of the crystals in the candlelight made for an absolutely awesome look.

The Field Club in Sarasota is a private club on the bay and makes a beautiful setting for a wedding. This couple choose a blue and yellow theme for there garden wedding. Two large showy arrangements flanked the couple for the ceremony and the aisle was lined with yellow rose petals with clusters of yellow daises attached to the ends of the chairs.

The bride and attendants chose spring like flowers to include hydrangea, ranunculus, freesia, button poms and roses for the bouquets they carried, with the men in matching boutonnieres.

Dinner and dancing was inside the living room and dinning area where silver revere bowls brimming of garden flowers adorned each table. Audrey Snow has provided many lovely photos of the event.
