The Commando’s | Palm Valley Gardens Wedding

Meghan and Steve’s love story is surely one for the books. If I were to try to retell it, I am sure I would put it to shame. Regardless of how they met, the true beginning of their story together started on April 28th, 2012. There were a few hiccups along the way, but their wedding day was nothing short of spectacular. Family had flown in from literally around the globe to celebrate their marriage.

The two exchanged vows at Our Lady Star of Sea in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fl with Reception to follow at Palm Valley Gardens.

Meghan spent a lot of time, making sure all of her details were exactly what she wanted. From “found” shutters made into chalk board signs and her escort card board to the skeleton keys on the guest book. Everything was just perfect. Her colors were turquoise and lime green – very tropical and matched their day.

It was at their wedding that I met Alley with Alleycakes and my obsession/addiction began.

Thank you to all the fabulous vendors that made this day happen! Most of all thank you Hannah Joy Photography for letting me use your beautiful photos of their day!

My sassy little Bride – I loved her Monogrammed Oxford white shirts – they were also her bridesmaids gifts!

I couldn’t help but tear up at their first look. Meghan was absolutely stunning – she took Steve’s breath away.

The had a stationary photo-booth with props from Etsy (we all love Etsy) and was tucked away for guests to enjoy! I loved this shot of her and her bridesmaids.
