Making Loved Ones Feel Included

From KT Crabb Photography: Our inspiration is for the couple who wants to celebrate beautifully in multiple locations. It's a unique occasion that requires an intimate and purposeful space to ensure their guests feel included even if they couldn't attend the main event.

Our thought on the Garden party theme is that it would center around all things naturally found in the space. Seeds for growth (an element representing their growing love), Water & sun that help support the growth (friends and family as the support), and floral being the final result (blooming love).

A Gorgeous Venue

Nestled in the heart of central Florida, Bok Tower garden lights up with color every spring. It's full of azaleas that create a sea of pinks, fuchsia and white. Bok Tower garden is best known for its unique tower that sits on top of a hill overlooking the local orange groves. The tower serenades it guests throughout the day with chimes from romantic songs. We found this magical backdrop to be the perfect look for our garden wedding!

Collaboration is Key

The team collaborated to create an atmosphere that mimicked the surrounding beauty. With fresh blooms, an adorable bike and a gold foiled covered cake, our dream became a reality. Oh I just wish you could smell the fresh flowers! We hope this vision brings to life how to romantically bring in elements that speak true to you as a couple, regardless of where you are in the world!
