A Classic and Timeless Wedding at Heritage Pines Country Club
We had the honor of capturing a stunning wedding for a couple whose love story began in the most modern way: on Instagram. Alyssa and Ben, two fitness enthusiasts met through mutual friends in the bodybuilding industry in July 2022. Their shared passion for training, exploring new coffee shops, and traveling to new places has been the foundation of a beautiful relationship. They describe their connection as "feeling like we've known each other for lifetimes”.
Ben proposed to Alyssa in a romantic moment on the beach at Davis Islands. Close by in Tampa is The Rusty Pelican, where they originally had planned on having their wedding, but decided on making Heritage Pines Country Club their wedding venue. Set against the stunning backdrop of Hudson, Florida’s hidden gem. Nestled in serenity, among rolling hills, tranquil lakes, lush fairways, and those famous towering pine trees, Heritage Pines truly was the perfect place for their special day. The venue’s natural beauty created an intimate and breathtaking setting for their celebration.Their wedding style was a reflection of their personalities: -classic, simple, and stress-free, with a touch of tradition.
Of course, no wedding is complete without the iconic first kiss as husband and wife, and Alyssa and Ben’s kiss was nothing short of special. Surrounded by their closest family and friends, they sealed their vows with a kiss that felt like the perfect culmination of everything they had shared up until that point. The reception toasts were filled with heartfelt and hilarious stories from Ben’s sister and Alyssa’s brother. As the night went on, the dance floor filled with laughter, music, and happy guests celebrating the couple’s new beginning. Alyssa and Ben’s wedding wasn’t just a celebration of their love—it was a celebration of family, friends, and the beautiful life they are building together.
