Eleni and Jesse’s Wyndham Grand Clearwater Beach Wedding

Our Special Moments Event Planning team thoroughly enjoyed working with Eleni and Jesse on their beautiful Clearwater Beach wedding.

 

 

Getting Ready

The day began at the Wyndham Grand Clearwater Beach, where the bride, groom, and their wedding parties got ready.

The bride and the ladies began with on-site hair and makeup services. The photography team captured them getting ready, as well as personal details, and Eleni’s first look with her wedding party.

 

 

Across the resort, Jesse and the guys hung out, had a light snack, got dressed, and took a few group photos.

 

How much do you LOVE their adorable Converse sneakers?

Once ready, each of the wedding parties boarded a limo bus, heading to Tarpon Springs for the wedding ceremony.

 

St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church

This church is just magical; it makes an excellent backdrop for a traditional wedding ceremony surrounded by family and friends.

With everyone in place, Jesse looked on as Eleni made her way down the aisle.

 

The two were married in a traditional Greek Orthodox wedding ceremony. They sealed their bond with a kiss and made their exit.

 

 

Following the wedding ceremony, they took some time for some portraits, in the sanctuary, along with their wedding party and family.

 

 

Wyndham Grand Clearwater Beach Wedding Reception

Returning to the resort, the newlyweds and guests enjoyed a cocktail hour to the sounds of a string trio.

Our Special Moments Event Planning team created a beautiful mirrored Seating Chart for guests to find their table assignments.

 

 

The ballroom was adorned in soft white fabric with gold-toned swags behind the head table. 

Guests’ tables were draped in crisp white linens and surrounded by gold chiavari chairs. 

The tabletops were dressed with gold charger plates, each holding a place card, a thank-you note from the newlyweds, and a sweet treat: Koufeta, a small sachet filled with Jordan Almonds. Colorful floral arrangements filled the room.

 

 

Eat, Drink, and Be Married!

Making their grand entrance, the newlyweds took to the dancefloor for their first dance to “Pointless” by Lewis Capaldi.

 

 

Following their first dance, Jesse enjoyed a very special dance with his children, which was followed by several touching toasts.

 

 

The evening continues with a delicious multicourse dinner, offering guests a selection of Beef, Fish, Chicken, or Vegetarian options.

The newlyweds enjoyed their cake cutting before taking to the dancefloor to dance the night away.

 

 

 

Congratulations, Eleni and Jesse!
