A Beautiful Celtic Wedding


Over the Thanksgiving Weekend 2009, I had the pleasure of working with another great couple, Ashley & Jason. Both Ashley & Jason were stationed overseas, so we jumped right into planning mode from the first consultation. From the beginning I could tell that traditions were important to both of them, so I wanted to make sure I kept that going throughout their wedding. Ashley’s vision of having a very earthy wedding was beautiful and I worked hand in hand with some amazing vendors to create her dream day.

The ceremony took place on the deck at The Holiday Inn Cocoa Beach Resort. The ceremony was gorgeous and the weather was perfect! Ashley had her uncle officiate the ceremony, which made it very special for her and Jason. We also made sure we incorporated the Groom’s children by having them partake in the sand ceremony and receiving a gift from Ashley during the ceremony. Several celtic traditions were incorporated in to their ceremony including the wedding march played by bag pipes, the hand tying and the ringing of the bells. After the beautiful and touching ceremony, guests headed under the deck for cocktails and hors d’oeuvres, while the wedding party had pictures taken by Paul Joseph Photography.












The main reception was immediately following cocktail hour and guests were moved into the upstairs ballroom. The room was beautiful with great uplighting provided by DJ Shane, gold chiavari chairs from Bell Chairs, chocolate pintuck linens rented from Connie Duglin, unique branch centerpieces from Amanda’s Florist and custom menus by I Need a Favor.



















Another major focal point was the cake table. Creative Cakes and Candies created a stunning four-tiered wedding cake that tasted just as good as it looked!


This wedding was beautiful and a great way to end November. Thank you Ashley & Jason for allowing us the opportunity to be a part of your gorgeous and special day! Congratulations and all our best for a happily ever after!
