Maria and Ben had their wedding at the Powel Crosley Estate in Sarasota.  Their team of vendors included Destiny Hair and Light for hair and makeup, Jonathan’s Flowers as the florist, Lexoria Wedding Films as the videographer, Puff ‘N Stuff for catering, Cakes by Ron who made the wedding cake, and DJ by CJ as the (can you guess?) DJ.

As I was editing their images, I felt like I knew Maria and Ben.  They made sure their wedding reflected their love and their faith in every detail.  Before the ceremony they had a No Look First Sight.  They kept a door between them so they couldn’t see one another, but held hands and prayed together.  The bride’s sister prayed over them as well.  What a perfect way to get ready for the ceremony!  As guests arrived, they were asked to highlight their favorite verse in a keepsake Bible for the bride and groom.  The ceremony included a unity rope, with ropes for Maria, Ben, and for God to be part of their marriage as well.  Everyone had a fun time at the reception!  Jason said there were some awesome dance moves being shown off :).

All the gorgeous details came together to create a perfect day for Maria and Ben.  We are so happy that we were able to be a part of this Firm Foundation for an amazing couple.  Thank you Maria and Ben!
