Danielle + Justin :: The White Room :: Saint Augustine Wedding Photographer

There is only one word to describe this wedding #sugarbutt! Danielle and Justin said there vows overlooking the water in downtown St. Augustine from the roof top of the whiteroom, and I am pretty sure there was not a dry eye in the whole ceremony. These two were so in love, and so made for each other, that even I cried! Danielle looked so amazing, and I know Justin wiped a tear when she walked down the aisle. These two did not do a first look but they did get some pics together where they could not see each other, and it was so sweet- and I know made the two of them feel better.From the first spot of makeup, to the last sparkler burned down, these two had an amazing time- and thats honestly what makes my job SO PERFECT!

Danielle and Justin- what can I even begin to say. When you two sat in my studio last year, I knew we clicked, but I did not know how fabulous working with you guys and your families would be. I honestly felt like family, and it made the day even more special. I just adore you both, and that little man too! I can’t wait to see where the road takes you guys, and how you two will grow as a married couple. I wish you a lifetime of amazing love, and fantastic adventures! Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your love story- I am truly honored!

How did you meet?

We dated in high school, he was my first boyfriend. Over a decade later we reunited.

How did he propose?

After a day at the beach we stopped for drinks at The Tini Martini. He convinced me that on a whim he purchased a room at The Casablanca Inn bed and breakfast where I had always wanted to stay. When we got to the room it was covered in rose petals and kit kats.  I realized it had been planned but not even suspect the “real plan”. Before dinner at my favorite St. Augustine spot, The Columbia, we walked along the bayfront. That is where he popped the question!

How did you choose your theme, flowers, and overall wedding design?

I knew I wanted soft colors and wanted to match the waterfront locations. Pinterest helped me settle on the sea glass tones and theme. I wanted “water” but not “beachy”. My florist really understood the tone I was going for and matched the flowers perfectly.

What was the best part of your wedding day?

Instead of a last dance Justin arranged for a table on the rooftop where we could sit and drink a glass of champagne. We propped our feet up, sang along to a favorite song, and laughed. We did end up dancing a little in the end.

What do you want to always remember from your wedding day?

The look on his face when he saw my dad and I walking down the aisle. I won a bet… He cried 😉

“If I Only Knew” – What is the one piece of advice that you would give to brides planning their wedding day?

I knew nothing about wedding planning but trusted in my coordinator’s suggestions and my research for vendors. I was relaxed the day of the wedding because I was surrounded by incredible professionals that did a fabulous job. I would say do your research and focus your time and money on the parts that are important to you.
