• Taylor and Stephen at the Cummer Museum in Jacksonville

    December 1, 2010   //   Weddings

    Taylor and Stephen had a beautiful wedding at the Cummer Museum in Jacksonville, Florida. The bride was stunning in her wedding gown, and I love the way she planned her wedding with such Southern and classic charm. Every wedding is unique, and Taylor (who is a musical theater teacher) expressed her love for drama with various musical acts throughout the day. All of these musical acts were surprises for the guests including a drum line send off. She especially awed her guests when the A Capella group sang Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believing” with their classical touch during the ceremony.

    The acapella group, from Elon University, greeted the guests as they took their seats. They also sang as the bride walked down the aisle.

    The gospel choir surprised guests during the recessional and Taylor and Stephen took a twirl in front of the group.

    As the night came to a close, sliders were passed around to the hungry guests and a drum line from the University of North Florida got the guests dancing to the beat. They also were there to send off the couple.
