We are still in awe over Latoya & Clarence’s wedding last weekend! It was… ahhhh! Just one of those fairytale-type weddings that you love to see come to life. The ceremony was held in the gorgeous courtyard of the Garden Club of Jacksonville under beautiful blue skies and perfect weather. Latoya looked radiant in an elegant layered dress. As she walked past family and friends toward Clarence, we saw him bite his lip as he was fighting back tears. Later in the ceremony, as everyone had their heads lowered in prayer, I caught him stealing another glance at his gorgeous bride. It warms my heart to see two people so in love!

As if that isn’t enough to make your heart flutter, Latoya & Clarence included a special part of their ceremony where they placed silver heart necklaces around the necks of their daughters, symbolizing the strength and unity of their family. It was so moving!

The reception was HOT! Everything was decorated in beautiful, vibrant pinks and damask patterns. The tables featured flirty centerpieces with white feathers. Their candy table featured pink and black cupcakes, chocolate covered strawberries, and tons of fun candies for their guests to put into cute little gift boxes. From the signature drink to their elegant cake by Gilmon’s Bakery, Latoya & Clarence brought a stylish, contemporary look to their wedding. The event décor and floral design was created by Alpha & Omega Event Consultants, and I think of all the weddings we’ve worked together this was my favorite! Just gorgeous!!

Dancing and music filled the rest of the evening. From their first dance, Latoya & Clarence hosted an amazing party that brought all their friends and family together to help them celebrate their joyous union. We feel very honored and blessed to have been there to share in their special day!

Congratulations Latoya & Clarence!
