Sarasota Wedding Photographers for Kari + Todd

Kari and Todd are a couple after my own heart- they both went to the University of Florida (and Yale grad school for Todd), love the water, and anything having to do with boating, and traveling.  They are adventurous, loving, fun, and of course, GATORS!  And now they are MARRIED!  Check out some of the wedding day story from their Sarasota Yacht Club wedding: Despite the heat, it was an absolutely beautiful Florida day outside.  And I love a wedding dress and a pair of Kate Spade bridal shoes that I can show off in the Florida sunshine! The bride and groom to be! The lovely bridesmaids + Kari and crazy groomsmen + Todd! I love when brides and grooms choose to have a “First Look” and see each other in private before the ceremony.  It gives them a chance to get out some of the jitters alone, share some private and special emotions together, and of course, capture some great images! Some wedding portraits inside the Sarasota Yacht Club. Kari, you are way too pretty!  Todd, you are quite handsome as well! Such a beautiful wedding ceremony, complete with singing from Todd’s sisters! The bride and groom and bridal party on the dock. Some of the wedding details and decor. Bride and groom’s first dance as husband and wife! And first dessert as husband and wife- the wedding cake! The sunset was so perfect out the night of Kari and Todd’s wedding.  The colors were incredible!  For their weddings rings, I wanted to try something a little different and creative in addition to some more traditional ring images….and this is what we got!  (Mavilo creates some pretty stunning engagement and wedding rings!) I will wrap it up with some more sunset images out on the Sarasota Yacht Club dock. Please share your love with the couple by leaving a comment for them below.  CONGRATS Kari and Todd (and congrats on a UF win over LSU to help celebrate your wedding day!)  To get notified when the entire wedding gallery goes live, click HERE.  We are so happy for you and thank you for allowing us to be a part of this special time in your lives!  xo
