Real Wedding: Sarah + Zach

Sarah and Zach were married in Orlando, FL on June 30, 2012. Their ceremony was held at the beautiful (and newly-renovated) First United Methodist Church of Orlando. After the ceremony, guests traveled a few blocks to the Abbey in Downtown Orlando for cocktail hour. The cocktail hour was fabulous and included a "Claywelltini" signature drink (their new married name), passed hors d'oeuvres, a Mashed Potato Bar and live entertainment by J & R Productions!

After cocktail hour, guests traveled upstairs to the MEZZ! for the reception. I think Sarah's jaw dropped when she walked into her reception. It was absolutely stunning. From, the tuxedo damask linens to the hanging centerpieces by Suzanne Nichols Design Group, everything was picture perfect. After a heartfelt speech from Sarah's Dad, the Maid of Honor and Best Man, guests dined on a stacked Cobb Salad and a dual entree of Filet Mignon and Chicken Chardonnay by Arthur's Catering. There could not have been a more perfect "icing to the cake" than the wedding and groom's cake that Party Flavors designed. It truly was divine and the wedding cake seemed to go on for days! I, of course, loved that Sarah chose to use Zach's uniform as the groom's cake design!

The linen on the cake table was actually the Mother of the Bride's train that was made into a linen.
This wedding had tons of touching details!! 

Sarah and Zach have moved to California to begin their lives! I wish them nothing but happiness!! Sarah and Mother of the Bride, Christa, truly made me a part of their family during the planning experience! I truly love my clients and really become a part of their lives! Don't worry, Sarah, I will definitely call you when I come to Cali!
