Classic South Tampa Wedding | Palma Ceia Golf and Country Club Wedding
Kelly and Peter’s elegant South Tampa wedding featured a cranberry, coral and ivory color palette with shades of blue.
“We both love clean lines, simple designs and classic trends,” the bride explained. “We found a Pinterest palette and fell in love, but we added accent colors to make it our own.”
The South Tampa couple searched for a Tampa Bay wedding photographer who could capture all of their special moments.
“We wanted someone who was going to make us comfortable. We were drawn to Andi Diamond Photography because we loved their photos, but we picked Andi because she made us feel like we were at ease,” Kelly shared. “She constantly made us laugh, and it made what can be awkward, very comfortable and fun! We absolutely loved the final product. She was reliable, consistent and professional.”

Looking back, one of the bride’s most memorable moments was taking some alone time to spend with her groom on their special day.
“The first look was extremely special; having that time for just the two of us to appreciate what the day was about. It’s easy to get caught up in making sure the guests are happy, but you two are getting married – that moment needs to be cherished and recognized,” Kelly reminisced.
The Proposal:
We took a trip to San Francisco and Napa Valley in October. Peter completely caught me off guard during an excursion on our second day. He led me out to Treasure Island, overlooking the Golden Gate and Bay Bridges and beautiful water views. After a beautiful proposal, I learned he had hired a professional drone videographer to record the whole thing! We have the most beautiful captured memory.

What advice would you give to other Tampa Bay couples?
Tampa is one of the most beautiful places to have a wedding. We are extremely lucky that we have a really tight knit group of vendors who were always willing to help each other out. The finished product is truly amazing. Choose vendors wisely and all of the stress melts away! The day is about celebrating love and marriage. Don’t let stress get in your way.
