Celebrity event planners Sean Koski and Brian Kelly have no trouble planning incredible events for others, so it’s no surprise that when challenges were presented during their wedding planning process - like their dream venue closing 90 days prior to the big day - they were still able to pull off a beautiful day! Making their all outdoor, no tent needed, wedding dreams come true was all thanks to The Hilton West Palm Beach.

The celebrity event planners of Ticket2Events had a notable guest list of those they’ve planned for previously, including LeeAnne Locken from Bravo's Housewives of Dallas, singer Kelis, and Jill Zarin, a long-time friend from the Housewives of New York who gave them words of advice reminding the now Mr. and Mr. Kelly to ‘have someone take good behind the scenes video and photos, and eat when you get a chance because you don’t get to eat during the party!’ Keep scrolling to see photos captured on camera by Eddie of Oak Media and on film by Dmitri of Megaset Weddings of how this incredible day of I do's came together!

Extra, extra! Guests got a "Wedding Post"

Guests were greeted upon their arrival with a sip of Komos Tequila at the picturesque Bootlegger Bar, a mobile bar adorned with oversized bouquets forming the letters "S + B" by Venus et Fleur. Once ready to take their seats, guests received their own copies of "The Wedding Post", a special edition “newspaper” print created by Ticket 2 Events, who shared that this spin on the traditional wedding program book can help keep things light during such an otherwise very formal time. Once seated, the ceremony aisle was transformed into a fashion show blasting the tunes of Gavin Degraw, Fleetwood Mac, The Chicks, and ending with "Ultimate" by Lindsay Lohan.

A ceremony aisle fit for a fashion show

The ceremony aisle, prepared by Xquisite Events Florida, flanked with imported tropical greenery and exotic white florals from Rosalie Flowers, and paired with contrasting ghost chairs in black from Atlas Event Rental, was a perfected look conceptualized from the fashion show runway style the grooms have always loved. A processional featured the entire bridal party as models. With 30 total in the wedding party, the guys and girls wore the latest looks of traditional tuxedos from Suit Shop, ivory gowns from Dessy, and light catching jewelry and bling from 12fifteen Diamonds.

Man's best friend: The cutest best man

The grooms, Sean and Brian, ended the fashion show by heading to the altar in their completely midnight blue tuxedos with matching Stubbs and Wooten brand velvet loafers. Their traditional ceremony ended with the exchange of a stack of three gorgeous rings by 12fifteen Diamonds hand delivered by @creamyravioli (their cream-colored French Bulldog who also wore a tux!). The grooms raised a glass and toasted with their own shot of Tequila Komos, conveniently waiting for them at the altar.

A 100 ft. display of rosé

Following the ceremony, guests mingled at a cocktail hour featuring the grooms' favorite flavors of the world, which included craft beer from Montauk Brew Co., shrimp shumai, and lobster mac and cheese. The cocktail hour also included live musicians who played some of their favorites on a stand-up bass and saxophone. When it was time to usher guests to dance the night away, a 100 ft. escort card display along gold accented glass shelves housed each guest's name atop a rainbow-colored rose by Venus et Fleur. Each card was also completed with a glass of Josh Sparkling Rosé to enjoy while finding their seats.

Making the most of the seated moments

When seated at the reception, guests were met with a pasta course to whet their appetite. Brian's favorite dish, penne al a vodka, was added to The Hilton menu special for the occasion. The grooms entered the wedding reception's checkered dance floor to "September" by Earth Wind and Fire, which was a nod to their engagement that took place on the 21st night of September!

Don't want to dance? There's plenty to do!

Their first dance, a choreographed routine from Fred Astaire, was to the tune of "Never Tear Us Apart" by INXS. A night of non-stop dancing ensued thanks in part to the 12-piece band setup by Ticket 2 Events. To help keep everything on schedule, the grooms relied on day-of coordinator Jessica from La Valse Events. Activities for those taking a break from dancing included an interactive take on a guest book with a phone booth to leave a message for the grooms by After the Tone, an adult approved bounce house, 360 photo booth, a standard photo booth, and even an option to weigh in on the live painting by Cherished Rain Art. No speeches were made at the wedding as the grooms wanted to forego any reason not to dance themselves! They did, however, stop to cut their cake, a 3-tiered red velvet cake made by Earth and Sugar.
