Bellwether Beach Resort Steps Into The Limelight | Bridal Show

As dedicated wedding vendors and photographers, we were thrilled to be a part of a Bridal Show Event at the stunning Bellwether Beach Resort in sunny St. Petersburg, Florida. This event was a fantastic opportunity for us to connect with soon-to-be-wed couples planning their Florida weddings, showcase our work, and be inspired by the enchanting beauty of the Sunshine State.

As Florida wedding photographers, we take pride in our ability to capture not just images but emotions, moments, and stories unique to Florida weddings. Our booth at the Bridal Show allowed us to showcase our work, from engagement sessions in the beautiful landscapes of Florida to intimate wedding ceremonies against the backdrop of St. Petersburg's stunning waterfront.

Participating in the Bridal Show Event at Bellwether Beach Resort was an unforgettable experience. It reminded us of the beauty of love, the uniqueness of every couple planning their Florida weddings, and the privilege of being wedding vendors and photographers in the Sunshine State. If you're planning your Florida wedding and seeking a photographer passionate about capturing your unique love story, we'd be honored to be a part of your Florida wedding journey.

THE ITALIAN CLUB | 3rd Annual TIE THE KNOT EVENT | TAMPA, FL

Thank you The Italian Club of Tampa for including Limelight Photography as a preferred partner for Tie the Knot Ybor event! 

Brides and grooms rode a trolley ride around historic Ybor city to visit six beautiful wedding venues with their roots in building Tampa Bay. They tasted food from the area’s best caterers, met with wedding planners and entertainment professionals, all on one Thursday afternoon in August.

The Italian Club, three-story building, founded over 100 years ago, is an architectural masterpiece laced with elegance and historic beauty. Perfectly located in the historic district of Ybor City, this beautifully restored, classically elegant building provides the perfect venue for someone looking for an all-in-one facility.  They offer three distinctive rooms, each with a personality and style of their own.  The building has three levels; the Cantina on the first floor, the Theater on the second floor and the Grand Ballroom on the third floor. With three floors of event space, The Italian Club has the unique appeal of being able to accommodate a wedding ceremony, cocktail hour and reception in three separate locations, all with a cultivated charm of their own.

Jessica + Cameron Step Into The Limelight | Sunken Gardens | St. Petersburg, FL

Jessica & Cameron were both pursuing careers in medicine and needed experience in the medical field. To enter the field they needed to become EMT's. On the first day of the program, Cameron sat next to Jessica and they began talking from there…
On a modern twist, Jessica proposed to Cameron, she planned to do something romantic at Sunken Gardens on Valentines Day but Cameron is a homebody. He said instead he wanted to stay in, get some pizza, drink some white claws and watch a movie. Jessica proposed in the most unromantic way possibly, after he returned from a pee brake during the movie. She panicked! lol
Jessica & Cameron both appreciate each others drive, passion and work ethic but also have a great time whenever they are together (we can contest to that!). They enjoy watching shows/movies together such as House of the Dragon, enjoy traveling together and sharing gross/exciting medical storied.
Cameron loves botany and Jessica visited the Sunken Gardens a few years ago for Mothers Day. They both liked the idea of guests being able to roam the gardens during the reception. On their wedding day… it was a crisp cold and windy day but it was a perfect! We could ALL feel the love they have for each other, we just LOVED watching them enjoy their day with their loved ones.
We are so happy for these two and we wish both Jessica & Cameron a lifetime filled with fun, adventure and so much LOVE!

Lisa + Garrett Step Into The Limelight | The Vinoy® Renaissance Resort & Golf Club | St. Petersburg, FL

Classic, elegant, timeless, and a touch of vintage!

Lisa grew up locally in St Pete, but moved to New York six years ago. Lisa and Garrett met each other on June 18, 2018 in NYC at a bar on a cold rainy weekday night. Garrett thought that Lisa was out of his league, which is probably still true, but was pleasantly surprised when Lisa said yes to a second date. For their second date they spent the afternoon in Central Park, including at Tavern on the Green and the Plaza Hotel, before going to one of Lisa’s favorite Upper East Side bars. 

Garrett proposed in the middle of COVID during quarantine (4/28/2020) on her birthday in the outside space (a small garden) of their NYC apartment.  Garrett and Lisa were hosting Lisa’s hometown friend and bridesmaid, a traveling nurse, at their apartment for several months while she worked in the city. Garrett took Lisa on a long walk through Union Square while Lisa’s friend decorated the garden in our backyard. After they walked into the apartment complex, red rose pedals led to the blooming cherry blossom tree outside where Garrett proposed – on Lisa’s 30th birthday.

Together they love to travel and explore cool neighborhoods in remote locations. Some of their favorites include: Boca Grande, FL; Vail, CO; and Washington, D.C. In Colorado, they love to spend time outside – in the summer hiking near the Snake River in Summit County and in the winter on the slopes with their Epic Passes. They also love exploring restaurants in the East Village in NYC. 

The historic Vinoy in downtown St Pete set the stage perfectly for their classic, elegant, timeless wedding day, with touch a vintage accents. They were really excited about the venue and the opportunity to be with their friends and family in a variety of locations at the Vinoy – the tea garden, the mezzanine, and the ballroom. 

The most memorable moments of the wedding day included Travis officiating, Paul’s speech, and dancing with guests. At the end of the evening everyone was tired but so happy from hard partying! Their wedding was a family- and friends-oriented affair where they celebrated both the beginning of our lives together as well as the opportunity to see many people for the first time after more than a year of COVID.
