Lauren and Joe are from Minnesota and worked with us since last December to plan their Florida beach wedding at Casa Ybel Resort on Sanibel Island. Their wedding was officiated by their own minister (who they flew down from Minnesota!) and was attended by about 20 of their closest friends and relatives. We provided their bamboo arch, chairs, sound system, and wedding music on Casa Ybel's beautiful private Sanibel Island beach. Lauren actually mixed her own music and it really added a personal touch. Lorraine provided their wedding photography, and had a blast taking their pictures on the stunningly landscaped grounds of Casa Ybel.
Unfortunately, Lauren's father was hospitalized just before the wedding and was unable to make the trip. So we got "high tech" and connected the line out from our sound system to one of their guests iPhones, while another guest used another iPhone to record and broadcast the wedding to her father. So, despite being stuck in a hospital bed almost 2,000 miles away in Minnesota, he was able to watch and listen to their beach wedding in Florida in real time!

ReplyDeleteHi Susan,
ReplyDeleteThanks for commenting. Yes, Casa Ybel is certainly stunning.
But to be honest, we work with several venues and beaches along the west coast of Florida from Clearwater to Naples that are just as great, depending on which area you are traveling to.
Contact us through our website and we'll be happy to help you plan the perfect Florida beach wedding!
