Charla and Dave were married on Sunday at the Powel Crosley Estate in Sarasota.  It is a beautiful location that was originally built in 1929 as a winter home for a rich inventor’s wife.  Dad hasn’t photographed there in a couple months and was excited to be there again.

Charla had her hair and makeup done by Priscilla Marie of Destino y Luz Hair and Makeup the morning of the wedding.  Dave spent his morning hanging out with the guys and playing card games.  It was a relaxed morning with everyone excited for the day’s events to begin.  The kids at the wedding were especially excited!  Mom loves the pictures dad got of some of the kids waiting for the ceremony to start.

The reception dinner was inside followed by dancing outside on the patio.  The couple chose a wedding cake made by Beautiful Cakes by Ron that had four tiers with the top tier opening like a box to hold flowers.  It also had the detail of the couple’s monogram on the bottom tier.  The food by Simply Gourmet Caterers was great and when mom saw a picture of the salad she was jealous of dad!  It looked both pretty and delicious at the same time.

Charla and Dave are going to New Zealand for their honeymoon!  How awesome!!  Dad offered to go with them to document their trip but I guess they wanted to be alone on their honeymoon.  Have a great time!
