|Lady of Perpetual Help Ybor Wedding |
The colors, the dresses, the dancing, the elegance and the L-O-V-E!
Tony and Elisabeth are married!! Their wedding was an Indian fusion inspired day where the bride and bridesmaids wore some of the most amazingly beautiful dresses I’ve ever seen! Elisabeth was beyond stunning in her beautiful white Sari which she had brought over directly from India. She was calm and glowed with happiness throughout the day…the kind of glow only that happens when you are about to marry your best friend.
When I first saw Tony that day, I could just see how happy, excited and a little nervous he was…But as soon as he saw his beautiful bride during their first look, he was a sea of calm and smiles…all the nerves seem to disappear, leaving only excitement and joy!
Their ceremony took place at the historic Lady of Perpetual Help Church in Ybor and surrounded by their friends, family and so much love- they said their “I do’s”! I couldn’t help but cheer and grin along with all their guests as they walked back down the aisle together, because their happiness was so contagious!
Their reception was held at the 1930 Grande Room, beautifully decorated with Indian inspired colors and theme, it fit perfectly with the FUN dancing and Bollywood-inspired entertainment that happened that night! I have never laughed so MUCH and been so impressed by the special dance the bridal party and guests performed for the couple!
Tony and Elizabeth are two of the sweetest and genuine people out there and their love is easily seen and felt by everyone near them. During their wedding day I saw it so many times-it was in the way they looked at each other, the way they make each other laugh and held one another- they are each other’s best friend and true love and we were honored to have been there to capture their amazing day!
