Danya and Johnathan’s Safety Harbor Wedding
Dayna and Johnathan’s Safety Harbor wedding was filled with the love of family and friends, tender, memorable moments, and personalization.
Getting Ready
Danya’s day began with her wedding party and some fun photos in their personalized PJs; the vendor team captured images of her accessories and getting dressed.
Before heading off for the wedding ceremony, she took a little time for her father to see her for the first time.
Meanwhile, Johnathan and his groomsmen dressed, exchanged gifts, and had a quick toast and a few group photos before the wedding ceremony.
A Chuppah Like No Other
The room was set for the couple’s wedding ceremony. The ballroom has theatre-style seating, with the chuppah placed on the stage. This beautiful chuppah was covered with a beautiful montage of photos as a memorial to loved ones.
With everyone in place, Johnathan waited anxiously for his bride, who was escorted down the aisle by her father.
The bride and groom exchanged vows in a beautiful ceremony surrounded by their parents. They incorporated the signing of their ketubah into the ceremony, closed the celebration by breaking a glass, and sealed their vows with a kiss.
A Walk In The Park
With family and friends enjoying cocktail hour, the newlyweds headed to the waterfront for some time together and incredible wedding portraits.
Dinner and Dancing
The beautiful ballroom tables were draped in white linens and surrounded by chairs with white covers and deep burgundy sashes. The centers of each table held an eclectic mix of candles, fresh flowers, and seashells.
With everyone in their seats, the newlyweds made their grand entrance, taking to the dance floor for their first dance and continuing with several touching family dances.
The evening continued with an incredible hora, followed by a Christian blessing, a traditional Jewish breaking of bread, and a blessing of wine.
Guests enjoyed a delicious dinner with salad and an entree selection of New York Strip, Salmon, or Chicken Marsala. After several wonderful toasts, the couple cut their amazing four-tiered wedding cake adorned with chocolate seashells.
Everyone enjoyed the wedding cake and a yummy cookie table while dancing the night away. As the night ended, the dancefloor was packed for one last dance.
Congratulations, Danya and Johnathan! We wish you a lifetime filled with love and happiness.
