For their wedding, this couple went above and beyond! Sofia had previously visited Vizcaya and fell in love with its rich history and breathtaking scenery. She knew from that moment she wanted Vizcaya as her wedding venue. The bride new exactly what she wanted and took every single little detail into account. After a year of planning, the day was finally here! I could not believe how fast a year had come and gone. Sofia was so nervous yet so excited to be marrying Doug. This magical day was captured by none other than the talented Ricardo from Lux Images. Below are some pictures of their spectacular wedding day.
Meet Sofia and Doug!
The Ceremony took place on the Casino Mound. It was a small, intimate ceremony with 80 of the couples closest friends and family members.
After the ceremony, guests were treated to cocktails inside the mansion's courtyard. As a focal point, Sofia chose to have a beautiful floral arrangement in the middle of the escort card table that was created by Eva from Green-O-Spot.
For their guest sign in table, Sofia and Doug created a collage of family portraits with their engagement picture in the middle as a symbol of two families uniting.
The Cake, by Might Fine Cakes, looked like it was an antique piece that belonged to the mansion's property. It was half chocolate and half Vanilla with beautiful gold accents.
After cocktails, guests were treated to a reception on the Property's East Terrace over looking the water. Sofia was inspired by Vizcaya's antique decor and neutral colors. Food was provided by Bill Hansen and entertainment was provided by Randy and Natasha's Band.
After dinner, Sofia and Doug shared a romantic first dance that followed with their guests dancing all night.
