From the Villa Blanca to the Grand Ballroom, Starting their day off right

Tara and Brandon, at the base of the Historic Bridge of Lions in Downtown Saint Augustine

One thing we love about what we do is working with people when they are experiencing a time in their life that is filled with energy and excitement. And Tara and Brandon were no different-- their families exemplified what that great energy was all about and their day was so full of love. I am happy that we feel like we captured this energy in so many of the photos of their beautiful day.

The bride got ready right next door to the Villa Blanca, at the Bella Bay Inn. The Inn backs right up to the perfect location to set up Brandon's first look of his bride. The intimate ceremony was held in the fully restored Villa Blanca, with its beautiful white cross-beams. The Villa Blanca connects to Saint Augustine's beautiful waterfront venue The Whiteroom's Grand Ballroom. In the time between the ceremony and reception, we took Tara and Brandon down to the bayfront to get a photo with the Matanzas River, featuring our very own iconic lions at the base of the Historic Bridge of Lions.
