CHANDELIERS and Ciroc-Selby Gardens- November 21, 2020

​Our Jennifer Matteo Event Planning team loves the soft details of Christy and Brad’s Selby Gardens wedding at Marie Selby Botanical Gardens.

The soft colors and mixing of elements and textures was a big part of the lux design. 
 
Christy started her day with her wedding party and some fun, girly photos in pajamas. The images of the bride’s personal details and flowers really set the color story of the day.
 
After a few photos with each of their wedding parties, Christy and Brad headed off for their First Look and time together before their wedding ceremony.

A little Florida afternoon sprinkle didn’t dampen their day. And made for some amazing photographs.
 
As wedding guests made their way to the wedding ceremony, they were greeted by a fun and creative Champagne wall.

​The incredible wedding gazebo was made a little more intimate with flowing white fabric and lush floral and greenery swags.
 
After the newlyweds exchanged their wedding vows, they took a little time for a CHEERS with their family and wedding party before heading off for some sunset photos. Meanwhile, guests enjoyed a cocktail hour with small bites and a Signature Cocktail – Peach Ciroc and Club Soda.
 
The outdoor wedding reception was soft and romantic, filled with layering of unique textures. Crystal chandeliers and contemporary bare bulbs hung over an oversized black and white checked dancefloor. Luscious textured linens were paired with fruitwood chairs, clear class china with gold rims, and vintage glassware. The eclectic look continued with tablescapes of interesting vessels, textured floras, and hundreds of flickering candles.
 
The evening included a delicious multi-course gourmet dinner, toasts by Christy and Brad’s siblings, their first dance to ‘Adorn’ by Miguel, and ended with yummy local ice cream sandwiches.
