I could write a pages long love letter to Bok Tower Gardens. Seriously, it is my absolute favorite place in all of Florida. The natural beauty there is the best in the state. But I digress, this post is about Jeff and Lindsey. These two are not like most couples. They spent the morning of their wedding getting ready together, which was an extra sweet touch. Because why shouldn’t you spend your entire wedding day with the love of your life?
And oh my goodness, did you notice that super sweet pupper!? Jeff and Lindsey had their adorable little Milly be a part of their whole day. It’s impossible not to smile when you see her!
There is something so beautiful about an all natural outdoor ceremony under a majestic oak tree dripping in Spanish Moss at sunset. I mean, it doesn’t get much better than this! It’s no wonder the ceremony area didn’t need any additional decoration. Nature did it all.
Another special touch Jeff and Lindsey had at their wedding was a Unity Heart. Miguel and I had a Unity Cross at our wedding, and we are often told that it was the sweetest part of our wedding ceremony. If you’re currently engaged, we highly suggest you look into a Unity Heart or a Unity Cross. It’s a super unique unity ceremony alternative that allows you to keep a part of your wedding day in your home always.
While we were planning their wedding day timeline, one thing that Lindsey told us over and over was that she wanted to dedicate as much time as possible to their bride and groom portrait time. We so love when couples tell us this, because it means we get lots of time to make beautiful images for their walls. Add to that fact that this particular wedding was taking place at Bok Tower Gardens, and we were over the moon.
Do we have any Game of Thrones fans out there? A theme that ran through this entire wedding day was that beautiful quote between Drogo and Daenerys, “Moon of my life. You are my sun and stars.” Just as we were driving back to the reception area after bride and groom portraits, we noticed the full moon rising. Jeff and Lindsey couldn’t resist the opportunity to take a few images with the full moon.
Jeff and Lindsey, thank you for allowing us to be a part of your special day. We hope you love your photos, and we wish you all the happiness in the world.
