Getting Ready

All while enjoying the view of the beach which is steps away from The Don Cesar Hotel, Bailey got ready with her family and friends. She sported a fun custom-made robe that had “The Mrs” embroidered on the back of it. For the big day, she chose a fitted lacey dress paired with a sheer sleeve and white wedged heels. Meanwhile, the groom went with your traditional black and white custom suit paired with a black bow tie. The groom and his friends shared a toast before the bride and groom met for their first look.

The first look

First look pictures are a great way for the bride and groom to share a special moment to themselves before the wedding happens. Bailey stands at the end of a walkway outside while Pierce has his back turned. The look of awe and happiness on both of their faces as she turns him to see her for the first time is priceless. Meanwhile, family and friends gather and get ready for the start of the ceremony. Let’s take a look at how the couple finally says I do.

Saying I DO

With the backdrop of blue skies and palm trees, the family walks down the aisle. The precious flower girl tosses out white rose petals from her pearl-beaded bag earning lots of smiles from the guests. Next, the bride is escorted by her father and handed off to her future husband. Tears are shed as family and friends look upon these two special people as they pledge themselves to each other. Before they share their first kiss as husband and wife Bailey and Pierce partake in a butterfly release. This is said to represent the start of a new chapter in a couple’s lives and positive change. Such a romantic gesture!

The Party

After saying I do, Bailey and Pierce enter the reception and are greeted by their family and friends. The room was decorated beautifully. Tables were covered with white linen and topped with our Grace Etched Champagne Glassware. The guests were then able to sit in our Clear Ghost Chairs that surrounded all the tables. Along with all of that, the couple picked out a beautiful 4 tier cake. Then the night was filled with dancing, speeches, and laughter. No better way to spend the rest of the evening than sharing such a special day with all the people closest to you.

Congratulations!

Altogether it was a beautiful wedding day! For their final send off the couple drove off in a vintage car with their just married sign (complete with cans!) behind them. Thank you for joining us for the Sophisticated Wedding at The Don Cesar. And for letting A Chair Affair be a part of your day. Best of luck to the happy couple!
