Cypress Grove Estate House Wedding with Champagne & Tradition

Apr

2021

Champagne towers, tradition and a live wedding painter don’t even begin to describe this Cypress Grove Estate House wedding.

Cypress Grove Estate House

Let’s begin with this estate house because wow does it make an impression. A mansion wedding venue with over 80 acres that you’ll have all to yourself, it’s definitely a Cinderella way to get wedded.

When I arrived at Cypress Grove Estate House, I was blown away by the beautiful scenery at this Florida venue! All of the trees and beautiful flowers as well as a setting on the water were enchanting. I could have spent all day there and never have gotten enough shots. It’s definitely got the dreamy Florida vibes. Additionally, they do mini-monies! So if you’re looking for a more traditional elopement venue, this is a perfect option!

Ceremony setup for Cypress Grove Estate House Wedding

It’s all in the details

Love beats all (Courtney and Nolan were so absolutely adorable together), but these details sure made me feel the love even more. I can’t not give these vendors the shout-outs they deserve.

Stationery

Flourish Creative Designs understood the assignment. The gorgeous cursive text and elegant invitation suite was the perfect addition. I was obsessed with how beautiful it was!

Tablescape

Chairs rarely get a mention, but the rentals from A Chair Affair went together so well with the Treasury Rentals tablescape that I just have to say something! Basically, it was a very dreamy dinner setup. Let’s not forget the linens from Orlando Wedding and Party Rentals.

Cake

The cake and Sweet Table from Kristen Marie Cake was so beautiful! I got so many shots of this cake because it was complete perfection! And maybe the best part of Kristen Marie Cake being there was that I got to eat several of the sweets from her again during the shoot and they are SO GOOD as I have said. I wish I could eat a treat from her everyday because they are scrumptious! #feedyourphotographer

Florals

The Flower Studio Altamonte added so many special touches to this day that made it even more beautiful than before! All in all, I was obsessed with all of the beautiful florals that were all over this shoot.

What they wore

They totally rocked their looks with another gorgeous gown from Lily’s Bridal, hair and makeup by Marci Knuth, and the tux from Dunhill Tuxedos!

Live wedding painter — I know!

A live wedding painter is probably the most unique gift you could give a wedding couple. As a matter of fact, Seeing Jamie, the live wedding painter from Event Painting by Jamie was so cool. He literally started from scratch and undoubtedly by the end had a beautiful painting of Courtney and Nolan.

The champagne tower

This wedding never ceases to wow! They topped off their day with a champagne tower from A Chair Affair and it did not disappoint! After all, Courtney and Nolan had so much fun with it and was the perfect way to celebrate their day.
