Treasure Island Wedding | Bilmar Beach Resort Wedding

Matt and Jessica's Treasure Island wedding featured a romantic beach theme with elements of natural seashell decor and pastel colors.

“Matt is all about casual and fun, and I am a sappy romantic. I think our wedding ended up complementing us both perfectly,” Jessica explained. “We chose a mint and meadow with blush accents color palette, as we wanted to bring in soft beach colors from the sunset to create a romantic feel.”

The Brandon couple searched for a St. Petersburg wedding photographer who could capture the emotion of their wedding day story.

“I loved the consistency of raw emotion in Kristen Marie Photography‘s work. Kristen did a wonderful job. Our pictures turned out so beautiful!” the bride gushed.

Ensuring that the couple could celebrate with an amazing wedding cake at their reception, the couple hired St. Pete wedding bakery The Artistic Whisk.

“I pulled a naked cake photo off of Pinterest as our inspiration. The Artistic Whisk was recommended by our wedding planner, and we absolutely love their cakes! It was so delicious and Jovana executed my design perfectly,” Jessica beamed.

Looking back, the bride's most memorable moment was the private first look that she shared with her groom.

“Our sneak peak and seeing each other for the first time alone was so magical. I still have goosebumps thinking about that intimate moment,” the bride reminisced.

Matt surprised me at sunset and popped the question on St. Pete Beach in front of the Don CeSar. We were running late and almost missed the sunset. His best man, Steve, was there hiding and came out with a champagne toast and also captured it all on camera.
