Alice and Lance's Wedding at the Snell Isle Gazebo

st petersburg fl wedding venueAlice contacted us several months ago. She had read our blog post about the Snell Isle Gazebo being St. Petersburg's Best Kept Secret Wedding Venue, and she was hooked!

Alice and Lance were married on a stunning Spring morning in St Petersburg. As we stood under the historic gazebo waiting for the bride to arrive, Lance joked, "I can't believe I let her rush me into this" (he then explained that they had been together for seven years and had two beautiful children!).

Everyonsnell isle gazebo, st petersburg, fle has to move at their own pace, and Alice and Lance's wedding was just our speed! They had live violin music provided by our awesome violinist Laurie Vodnoy-Wright, who played the Beatles' And I Love Her as their daughter walked out as the flower girl. They opted for more traditional music when Alice's father walked her down the aisle, and the ceremony was a real tear-jerker (so we were told!).

Afterwards, Alice and Lance took advantage of the gorgeous Florida Spring weather to take their wedding pictures with Claire all over the beautifully landscaped Snell Isle Gazebo and Statuary. We even got the lawn man to turn the fountain on for their wedding pictures! It couldn't have been more perfect!
