We had been really looking forward to Kristin and Chris’s wedding ever since their engagement shoot in DeLand (see it here.) The wedding at the DeBary Golf and Country Club was beautiful, even though the rain refused to stop for it! So many friends and wonderful family. They had the best Dollar Dance ever! Chris recorded himself singing their song to be played for Kristin at their first dance as a surprise for her (he sounded great!) We are so happy for you Kristin and Chris!

From Kristin:
Describe your wedding day style in one sentence: Our wedding day style was simple and effortless.
Wedding day color scheme: Mint, Peach, Coral, Gold, Ivory
Describe your wedding planning process: The wedding planning process was unlike any other. Event planning is part of my (Kristin’s) job, but it’s different when the event is actually for you! While there were a few stressful moments, in the end everything came together just how we wanted.
What advice would you give to future brides for their wedding day? Enjoy every moment. This is a once in a lifetime experience. Take a second to step back through the entire process to appreciate what you have been blessed with and all your hard work is important! Also – make sure you eat and drink the day of the wedding – you need your energy to have the best day possible.
Most memorable moment during the planning process: I think the most memorable moment was finding the location. We weren’t exactly sure what we wanted when we started, but when we saw DeBary Golf and Country Club, it brought all our ideas together. It has also been special to plan our wedding the same time my future sister-in-law and cousin have been planning theirs.
What are you most looking forward to as a married couple? While it’s simple, we are most looking forward to navigating what life brings us together.
Which moment are you the most excited to see in photos? The first look and the bar photos. The rain kept us from doing outdoor pictures, but I think we are going to enjoy having something more unique.
What was your wedding inspiration? Our wedding inspiration was to be light, simple, and elegant. I saw a few inspiration photos that had a just the right mix of simple with a touch of glamour and that’s what really drove the feel of the day.
Describe some of your favorite wedding details and how you came up with them: One of my favorite wedding details were all the items I made with the help of family, including centerpieces, lanterns, and signs. After perusing the craft store multiple times I came up with a way to DIY a lot of the looks I loved and they came out fantastic! The other detail was Chris’s surprise recording of “The Way You Look Tonight” for our first dance – I had no idea what he was planning and it was such a sweet moment in our night.

We were very excited to be a part of Tania and Axel’s wedding. We knew when we met for their engagement session that this couple were meant to be together and that their Casa Feliz wedding would be special. And it was. Family from far away and really great friends were there to celebrate with them and everything was perfect. Working with amazing wedding professionals and such a great couple made our jobs very easy that night! I love to hear what couples say about their wedding after it is all over so don’t miss their ideas and great advice for new couples planning a wedding below. xo

Describe your wedding planning process:
I let the style and architecture of the venue dictate the layout and the decor. We very early knew that we wanted a small wedding, and that we wanted everyone together for the reception, so that told us how many people we could invite. As far as the colors, Axel was going to wear a blue suit, and I found some pictures on Pintrest of weddings with the groom in blue. That’s when I found a bouquet that I loved and Lee made a version of that bouquet, but with his own artistic touch.

Describe your wedding day style in one sentence: the mood was relaxed and fun, even if the decor and the attire was elegant.

Most memorable moment during the planning process: Tania: telling my mother about the details of the wedding that I assumed she knew, but she didn’t and they made her very happy. Oh, and getting the marriage license. Axel: that we very early on agreed on a budget. Axel: the food tasting.

What are you most looking forward to as a married couple? Growing old together and having a partner that you can trust and love by your side.

Which moment are you the most excited to see in photos? Axel: when Tania was walking down the isle, pictures during the ceremony. Tania: Axel’s reaction when he first saw me, my dad’s face when he first saw me, Axel and I dancing and the posed pictures of us and the family.

What was your wedding inspiration? We wanted the wedding to be elegant, but not too fussy. We wanted our guests to feel as if they were coming to a special dinner party. We wanted the decor and the details to be personal and meaningful.

Describe some of your favorite wedding details and how you came up with them. Tania: I loved the garland, which was absolutely Lee Forrest. Axel and Tania: we spent time with the pastor so that the ceremony would be personal. We chose Pastor Mike because we wanted someone who knew us and had seen our journey in faith.

What advice would you give to future brides for their wedding day? Don’t try to do too much, and know your limits. I just wanted to be surrounded by a few very important people prior to the ceremony, and I set those limits with others. Also, a few beautiful details will be more memorable than ten hurried activities, etc.
–be sure that you and your future husband are united in the approach and decisions. Everyone has an opinion, but yours as a couple is most important.
–spend enough time with your photographer and with your wedding planner to get to know them and be sure you like them. Personality is important and Kelly and Courtney were not only excellent, but also calming and so sweet. (Thank you Tania! That means a lot xo)
–hire a planner, even if it’s just for the day. Cyndi was one of the main reasons why I was so relaxed that day.
–be sure to have as many hair and make up trials as you need to be sure that you’re happy with what you’ll look like on the day. This really helped me and Kitty understand what I was looking for, so the day of make up was perfect upon first application.
–be present in the day and take it all in, every second. Just roll with anything that happens– people won’t remember that part of it.
