Nikki and Tyler - Ponte Vedra Inn and Club, Ponte Vedra Beach

Nikki contacted us because the wedding planner her sister used, who no longer lives or works in the area, recommended us. What an honor! Their destination wedding was so beautiful, with the Atlantic Ocean serving as the backdrop for both their ceremony and reception. Nikki says:

Heather did a WONDERFUL job coordinating everything for the day of our wedding! I was not stressed leading up to our big day due to her flawless attention to detail and ability to manage anything that came up. She was efficient, timely and organized which is just what I needed to make me feel confident in allowing her to take the reins. If any mishaps came up on the day of our wedding I didn't know about it because she was there to take care of it :) Our guests are still talking about how wonderful the wedding was down to the last detail and we are on cloud nine remembering the perfection of that day. I highly recommend First Coast Weddings and Events for any bride and/or groom looking to make their day flow easily.

Mary and Kevin - TPC Sawgrass, Ponte Vedra Beach

Mary and Kevin had a beautiful tented wedding on the TPC Sawgrass clubhouse lawn. It was such a windy day! The centerpieces kept blowing over, so we had to improvise with the placement of some of the decor. Luckily, when it was time for the reception the breeze had died down and it was a lovely evening for an outdoor event! And Mary’s dress was so amazing - it had a skirt that could be worn over the dress, so she had two looks without having to change dresses. Perfection!

Marta and Michael were married on March 1, 2014 at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach, FL. They planned their wedding long-distance, all the way from North Dakota, with the help of Marta's parents and sister who live in Florida. What a beautiful weekend, and an amazing blending of two families and cultures! Thanks to Nate and Bryn from Deremer Studios for sharing these photos with us.

Ashley and Matt had an amazing wedding at TPC Sawgrass, complete with a little lightning before the ceremony and some spectacular fireworks during the reception!

The bridesmaids' dresses were an amazing shade of blue - paired with the green and white flowers, the girls looked stunning!

This was quite possibly the closest weather call I've made in my 14 years of doing weddings. I made the call to go ahead with the outdoor ceremony, despite a few rain cells on the radar. Minutes before we were supposed to start, TPC's golf course sirens were going off, alerting golfers to nearby lightening! But, we made it without any rain - but you can see the impending storm approaching in this photo!

This was a first at a wedding reception - I don't think I've ever had a groom do a handstand!

Jenna and Andy - Nocatee Crosswater Hall, Ponte Vedra

How adorable are these two? The smiles on their faces says it all - yep, we're in love! We had a great time coordinating Jenna and Andy's wedding in June.

Jenna and Andy also got to see a sneak preview two weeks before their own wedding, when one of Jenna's bridesmaids got married at the same ceremony venue! The girls shared many of the same vendors, so Jenna and Andy knew she didn't have a thing to worry about on the wedding day.

And speaking of vendors, we got to see one of the coolest things ever at a wedding reception. Visual Power Cinema actually edited footage from throughout the day, and showed the highlights AT THE RECEPTION. You heard me right! Not more than three hours after the ceremony, we were watching the video. Amazing!!

From the stunning decor to the delicious food to the sparkler send-off, it was certainly a night to remember!

Lindsay and Jordan's wedding was simply stunning! We love getting to work with such sweet couples and their families.

Mira & Matt - Wedding at Home, Jacksonville

Mira-and-Matts-Wedding-by-the-St-Johns-River-0029.jpg

Matt and Mira are such a sweet couple, and both have such amazing families!  They met in college and have survived the years through medical school and now residency as they begin a new journey as husband and wife.  Because of their hectic schedules, Matt's mom was responsible for most of the wedding plans - we think she did an incredible job! In addition, she and her husband hosted the wedding and reception at their beautiful riverfront home.

This photo by Agnes Lopez truly captures the love that the bride and groom have for each other! Be sure to stop by her blog to see additional images from this wedding.

These adorable programs were printed by Whimsical Prints, with layout and assembly by the First Coast Weddings team. The gorgeous flowers were done by Rose of Sharon European Florist.

Tables, chairs, and linens were supplied by Beachview Tent Rentals, with the First Coast Weddings team doing all of the setup and breakdown.

The wooden bowl pictured above was handmade by friends of the family, and held the rings during the ceremony. It was passed around during the ceremony for the guests to offer a blessing for the couple.

The menu, created by Karen Glenn, was a buffet of French-inspired Southern favorites. Some highlights included Chinois Grilled Lamb Tenderloin with Cilantro Mint Vinaigrette, Shrimp and Grits, and Jalapeno Cheddar Cornbread.  Oliv'r Twist provided bar service, where local favorite Bold City Kiler Whale Ale was served alongside Labatt's Blue in honor of the bride's Canadian heritage. The signature drink was a Lemon Drop, the bride's favorite!

The lemon-flavored cake, to compliment the Lemon Drop Martinis, was created by The Cake Shop of San Jose. The super-sweet forks, engraved with the wedding date, were a gift to the bride and groom.

The bride and groom departed their afternoon reception with our favorite photo opp - the ribbon wand send-off. We just love this colorful and fun exit.

The best way to leave a riverfront reception - by boat! We love the special flag that the mother of the groom ordered, as well as the pretty streaming ribbons and floral wreaths by Rose of Sharon European Florist.

Mimi and Trey's wedding weekend was a true celebration of family, friends, and love! Thanks for letting us share your wedding day with you.

Mimi worked with a friend that designed all of her stationery for her, including the adorable programs!

The Heritage Ballroom at the Marriott Sawgrass looked amazing for their ceremony. All decor by PRI Productions.

The String Group provided ceremony music, and then continued during cocktail hour.

Stunning escort card display. PRI Productions provided the centerpiece, and Mimi found the escort card holders on Etsy.

Love this photo of Mimi and Trey on the Marriott's deck. Andy Armstrong was their photographer, so be sure to pop over to his blog to check out more amazing images from this wedding!

This head table is incredible! It seats 30 people, including the bride and groom on the bench in the middle. All decor by PRI Productions.

This crowd was here to party! DJ Jeff Bell of D'Land Entertainment kept the party going all night. All decor by PRI Productions.

Yes, that is Taco Bell! We got extra-special permission from the hotel to bring in the bride and groom's favorite late-night snack at the end of their reception.

Unless otherwise watermarked, photos by PRI Productions.
