Lucia and I met about 1 year ago when she booked me for her wedding and as we chatted away on the phone, it felt like I had known her forever! She’s an amazingly warm and friendly person who makes you feel like an old friend from the moment you meet her and I can’t imagine anyone who meets her not loving her immediately!
Such is exactly what happened to Elias one day. After a chance meeting at Lucia’s work, he was a man on a mission to get her to go out with him. Returning every day to bring her flowers, to take her on long walks during her lunch break and even “a week where he brought her a piece of jewelry every day…Sapphires on Monday and Tuesday, Rubies on Wednesday and Thursday and Diamonds on Friday” – Lucia was overwhelmed with all the gifts, but well aware that the true gem was Elias himself- and a couple of years later they still have lunch together every day. As I got to know them a little better on their wedding day, Elias and Lucia beamed with excitement and I could really see how they fell in love with one another. She is the ying to his yang, her excited to his calm…they are the perfect match.
They were married in the Historic Woman’s Club in Winter Park, where the beautiful paper flowers that decorated the ceremony and reception, the cake topper, her tiara and the guestbook where all hand made by the bride herself! She also made her bouquet, her centerpieces…I could go on and on! I was truly amazed at this lovely bride’s talent!
Lucia and Elias~ I hope that the happiness and love you felt this day follows you everyday on your path as husband and wife. Thank you for letting me be part of your beautiful day!












Gorgeous inside and out






Love the look that Lorelai (Lucia’s daughter) gave me as she heard the vows
