Konstantina and Jason's romantic Palm Harbor wedding beautifully captured their vision with simplistic garden details and modern gold accents.
“We always envisioned our special day being classically elegant with a bit of simplistic charm. For our theme, we chose an organic garden ambiance with a color palette of white, champagne, gold accents. We also incorporated lots of greenery and chose to keep our colors pretty neutral,” the bride shared. “Wanting to celebrate our Greek-American cultures, we made sure to give our guests an amazing time that didn't follow a strict timeline. In the end, all of our little details made our wedding exactly the special day we had hoped for.”

With a particular wedding venue already in mind, the bride and groom couldn't wait to start piecing together their day and book the location of their dreams.
“As soon as we picked a date with our church for the ceremony, we booked Innisbrook Golf & Spa Resort for our reception. From the get-go, we had them in mind, and they were always at the top of our list for potential venues. We had attended various events at Innisbrook in the past, and we loved the venue and beautiful golf courses for our pictures,” the bride gushed. “From start to finish, the service was absolutely amazing. Our wedding coordinator and team were always there to answer any questions and truly went above and beyond to help us create a beautiful night.”

To complement her romantic theme, Konstantina chose an elegant updo from Destiny & Light Hair and Makeup Group.
“My second hair trial was with Destiny & Light Hair and Makeup Group, and I was really excited to meet with the team. From the beginning, I felt at ease when I explained what I was envisioning for my big day,” the bride shared. “Amanda really listened to me and made sure I got exactly the look I was going for. Overall, the team was incredibly talented, and I was extremely happy with my hair look.”

Envisioning a dress that she would feel beautiful in, the bride looked to Palm Harbor bridal shop Nikki’s Glitz and Glam Bridal Boutique.
“I chose Nikki’s Glitz and Glam because of their large selection of dresses and designers. Going in, I really wanted a mermaid-fitted dress, but I was willing to try other styles as well,” the bride shared. “The team at Nikki’s made the experience very enjoyable. Everyone was very professional and friendly, and I couldn't be happier with the dress I chose.”

Looking back, the couple reminisced about taking in their beautiful celebration with friends and family.
“Getting that moment to finally sit down as husband and wife and be surrounded by all of our guests was definitely an amazing memory for us,” the bride gushed. “We looked at each other and our hearts were so full to have the most important people to celebrate with us on our most special day. We felt so blessed to have all the people we love around us.”

The Proposal:
I had been asking for a winter vacation in the mountains, so along with our good friends, we planned a trip in the Blue Ridge Mountains. I had no idea Jason was secretly planning a proposal. The two of us took a horseback ride on our second day into the mountains when he proposed. The setting was magical and he completely surprised me!
