{Brooke & T.J. @ The Vault}
Brooke and TJ got ready at the Le Meridian Hotel in Downtown Tampa. It was the perfect location for them since they are both attorneys! Brooke loves champagne and her wedding theme was the perfect reflection of her personality. The details were gold, sequined and sparkly. Her mom had set up a champagne "bar" in Brooke's room. It had glittery champagne bottles, engraved champagne glasses, a ribbon banner, and all the mixers. Even their water bottles for the day had custom labels with their names on them. Brooke had three boxes of rings that we photographed, all family heirlooms. Both of Brooke's dresses were stunning. For the ceremony she wore an ivory gown with a gorgeous sheer detailed back and a long flowey veil. Her bridesmaids wore floor length, gold sequined dresses that I wanted to put on and join the bridal party! TJ and the guys were in classic black tuxes with white rose boutonnieres. When Brooke walked down the marble stairs for TJ to see her, he is in awe of how gorgeous she looked. After a sweet ceremony, officiated by a friend of theirs, I was able to take photos of Brooke and TJ in front of the beautiful iron gates at the church. Brooke did a wardrobe change and got more comfortable before heading over to the Vault for their reception. The ballroom was decorated with colors of blush and champagne, and gold linens. The light and ambiance shining through the tall windows of the Vault was just gorgeous. The photo booth was located in the actual bank Vault of the venue which was so fun for their guests and they had smores bar for everyone to enjoy as well! The Orlando Dueling Pianos entertained the crowd, and the dance floor was packed from the minute it opened. Brooke, and some of her friends were FSU cheerleaders. They hoisted Brooke into a Full as she steadily posed for photos, it was pretty awesome! We stole the newlyweds away for a few moments for some nighttime shots in front of the Tampa Theatre and then as the night drew to an end, guests lined up in rows in front of the Vault to send the couple off with a bubble exit with bubbles in what else…champagne bottles. Congrats Brooke and TJ!!!! xoxoxo
