At the Hyatt Regency, flowers were blooming and birds were chanting hymns of joy. On the shore of Clearwater Beach, the coquina clams dug into the sand near the water with their muscled foot and boats rushed across the waves. The sky was getting sleepy, the clouds a blur by wind in the upper atmosphere, the sun closing its eyes on the east coast, but this sweet couple’s love never rested. Meet Crystal and Phillip, they first started dating on September 30, 2010. After seven glorious years of being together, on March 28, 2017, they got engaged. A year later of being engaged, it is finally official; “The Best Day” as seen on their board with the previous two dates is their wedding day, June 10, 2018. This heart warming aura kept the night young and full.

The lovely purple theme with accents of silver and gold inspired elegance and class just as the bride aspired to have. She said,“The wedding is small…, it allowed me to create a lot of personalized details. I wanted the wedding to be very personalized and unique to us as a couple.” She achieved this goal and surpassed the expectation; every detail was so beautiful and unparalleled. Even the cake was dazzling with the crystal cut appearance down the middle of the cake and garnished with the sweetest cake topper.

The bride wore a captivating dress, it was designed with shiny beads stitched in a luxurious pattern. Her ruffled train followed her everywhere beautifully. Her veil was lined with the same silvery beads at the end. The groom wore a navy blue, griseous tuxedo with a white dress shirt and tie and very special cuff links that were a sweet little surprise gift from the bride. “He doesn't know it yet but I bought Philip a special pair of cufflinks…, engraved with our initials, wedding date and coordinates of the wedding venue.”
