Beautiful June Wedding - Taka Miyamoto and Luke Dobbs

Today Takako Miyamoto and Luke Dobbs got married! The couple was referred to us by Gretchen Whipple, our good friends at the Omni Hotel and Sheila's Cakes. The ceremony was held at Riverside Presbyterian Church and as we approached, I could see a flash of blue peeking out from around those big beautiful oak trees -- you know the ones. (That's my favorite part of this job.) We spend so much time preparing, designing and planning that when we get a chance to catch a glimpse of everyone in their finery, it totally makes our day.

Taka's bridal party was absolutely lovely and photog Gretchen Whipple captured the girls laughing and hugging before the ceremony. Taka was GORGEOUS, elegant and stunning. Kelley designed a bouquet of beautiful, delicate whites accented by Stephanotis with pearl centers and pale pink orchids for Taka. The girls carried clusters of pale pink hydrangeas wrapped in white satin.

The intimate reception was held at the Omni Hotel in downtown Jacksonville, FL and the ballroom decor consisted of intricate pink cherry blossoms, luscious, pale pink hydrangeas and the dramatic reflection of LED lights in tall, graceful centerpieces. The candy bar was full of colorful sweets that looked gorgeous in the glass apothecary jars and silver scoops. Final touch... the breathtaking cake from Sheila's Cakes. Pretty pale pink cherry blossoms and branches arched over the tiered cake and we know that it tasted even better than it looked!

Our best wishes to you both for a long and very happy life together!
