Tampa Palms Golf and Country Club Wedding | Jenna & Kevin

When I met Jenna and Kevin just about a year before their wedding for their engagement session I could just tell how much they adore each other. Plus, they have the most awesome wedding #, #maddenly in love since they are the new Mr. & Mrs. Madden! There’s so many special details and things about their wedding day I’ll try and keep it short:-) The location was special because Jenna’s sister Zoe had also gotten married at Tampa Palms and Tampa Palms is where their family grew up. The girls got ready at Jenna’s parents house and her room is where we did the girls photos and her getting in that gorgeous gown. Her dog even snuck into a few! Kevin had a special gift for her that was a beautiful rose gold diamond band that was a total surprise. Kevin and the guys got ready at the club and anxiously awaited the carriage to arrive with Jenna and her dad to walk down the aisle under the outdoor verandah……….

The grounds just behind the club are iconic to Tampa Palms and we had the most amazing light just before sunset. Their reception was just inside the verandah and I love that room because the arched windows make it bright and with the white draped ceiling and backdrop for their sweetheart table it was perfect. The lighting and draping added so much depth and texture. Jenna’s parents, Jacqui and Peter, and English and they have a tradition where the ladies in the family give the bride a fancy horseshoe for good luck so Jenna got one from her mom and both her sisters, Leah, who is her twin sister and Zoe. The dessert table and candy station was to die for (we may have tried a few things:-) Kevin and Jenna did the perfect dip at the very end of their first dance and the rest I’m going to just let you look at because words don’t really do the moments justice. Congratulations to the new Mr. & Mrs. Madden we are so lucky to have been there! xoxox
