Smith/Hoefler Wedding & Reception

I had so much fun helping Eddie and Tiffany plan their wedding! From day one, it was clear that Bluegrass was a perfect match for their wedding. Beautiful room for the ceremony, dazzling Ballroom for the reception, a Private Event Director that ALSO went to Florida State and pledged the same sorority... (Go 'Noles!)

The result is this beautiful wedding and reception. A great spring wedding at Bluegrass!

We start with the ceremony in the Glassroom. The Glassroom offers the benefits of an outdoor ceremony without the drawbacks that Mother Nature can provide. With the weather being a little less than stellar this past Saturday, it was clear that it's possible to have a ceremony with a beautiful golf course backdrop without the warmer temperatures.


































Christmas lights and a yellow linen gave the arch and unity candle some personality, just like the bride and groom!


We added some special touches to make the ceremony a little more special.

These floral arrangements were just beautiful! Thanks to Bianca at Flower Express!


































After the ceremony, it was off to the Ballroom for the reception! Guests were greeted by these cute mason jars with personalized tags!

 Each tag had the name of the guest and the table the guest was assigned to.


































(I apologize my camera work is not that great, still trying to figure out my new camera...)



We filled the mason jars with our signature Bluegrass Fruit Tea. Ahem, make that adult Fruit Tea.

The Ballroom was decked out in a cheerful, spring-time yellow! The floral arrangements looked really great, too!



The guest tables were full of fun stuff! Rock candy, disposable cameras, book marks.... Check out those table numbers! Just vellum paper taped into a cylinder with a flameless tea light inside! So cute!


Our friends at Ace Photography supplied these bookmarks of the happy couple. The guests were also invited to fill out these luggage tags to extend well wishes to Tiffany and Eddie.


































Guests were invited to play a game with their disposable cameras on the table. How much fun!


































I love a cute sweetheart table! The bride and groom had these adorable signs that hung from the back of their chairs!


The cake was of course a masterpiece, as provided by Faboo Cakes!


































The groom's cake...wow. As a fellow 'Nole, I think this may be my favorite groom's cake EVER!

 That's Doak Campbell Stadium! (Did I mention I used to work in that building?)



For the bride and groom's exit, sparklers were provided for the guests along with personalized mints.

To light the sparklers, personalized match books were provided. Adorable!

Tiffany and Eddie really are a perfect match! I was so glad to be a part of their special day!

To make the day even better, I had the opportunity to work with some of my very favorite vendors!
