Wedding: Sonia & Michael
Ceremony & Reception: Marriott at Sawgrass
Event Designer: Liza Chung
Gown: Love Bridal Boutique
Entertainment/DJ: McGee Entertainment
Michael and Sonia had an amazing and glamorous event. When I first met with Sonia, she told me her wedding would be an event I would definitely want to shoot.
She was not kidding.
The ceremony was heartfelt, with Michael and Sonia reciting a beautiful vow to each other. The ring bearer was so cute; he surprised everyone when he got down on one knee to present the rings. He came up with it all on his own and had been practicing all day.
Sonia worked with event designer extraordinaire Liza Chung to create an incredible reception. The three ballrooms at the Marriott were decorated in a luxurious theme with fabulous centerpieces and details like the elevated head table that was backed by a wall of crystals that hung from the ceiling.
Thanks again, Sonia and Michael, for including me in your incredible event!
Update: Sonia & Michael’s story was featured in the Florida Times-Union newspaper.
Here are some reactions from when the reception ballroom was unveiled.
Gorgeous! That is an incredible event– and the images are so classy and gorgeous to fit. I LOVE the portrait of the bride by the curtains!
WOW!!!!!!! You look great, no AMAZING - we really did miss a spectacular event. I really am sorry we missed the wedding and seeing you, life is still hectic. Glad you liked the gift - from South Africa. Let me know when you are coming down.

Wow! These are incredible. I might have to marry John again just for a new set of photos ha ha. BTW, Agnes, how about a little airbrushing on my double-chin???? I swear it’s not always there.
Beautiful! Absolutely stunning and perfectly flawless! Chris and I are so happy that we could be part of your special day and I thank you for your friendship over the years! We look foward to many more!
All our love,
