Good Morning everyone! We know the day after Memorial weekend be a little rough so we have prepared a pretty treat to snap you out of those workday blues. How about some GORGEOUS photos from Carrie Wildes Photography? Will that help?
This beauty of this color palette, Kate and Brandon and the vibe of this vivacious wedding immediately put me in that giddy, fun mode. And really, what better mode is there? And with these beautiful shots by Carrie,…ahhhh….just another day at Chic Sweets.

Got room for a preciously pink wedding with poms? (Laughing) Do I even have to ask? There is just so much you can do with them! This was a special project shared with us and the wonderful Nai from Party Poms. Of course, we had the vision of our Bride, Nicole, getting married at the wonderful Tampa Palm Gulf and Country Club.
The absolutely gorgeous bride and groom, Nicole and Paul, used their wedding day as a chance to host their nearest and dearest in a celebration that reflected their own unique personlities…something that makes me over-the-moon happy to be able to share it with you on Chic Sweets.
Of course, the day would not have gone smoothly without the help of some amazing vendors.

Destination Wedding: Shelby and Chris in St. Pete Beach
What better way to end the day than with the most gorgeous, little wedding you’ve ever seen. The sweetest little details. The loveliest of lovely brides. With photographs by Luminaire Foto and a lovely pink and damask print dessert table by us…it’s the picture perfect wedding to end the week!
Having come down from up North, this small, intimate affair was sooo much fun (seriously: fun), and could the flower girl be any cuter?? Shelby and Chris were such a joy to work with I could not be happier to share a few moments of their joy. The day had been so gloomy and rainy but as the rain-gods would have it, the sun came out the moment their ceremony began. Nothing seemed to bother Shelby and Chris who are undeniably smitten with eachother.
Enjoy everyone and have a fantastic weekend!

Real Wedding: Kate and Brandon

Radiant. Yep, I think that pretty well sums up Kate’s look on her wedding day. It was the stunning (seriously: stunning) orange and pink portrait midway down that first caught my eye on Carrie Wildes Photography, and though Kate and Brandon’s Florida destination wedding has some lovely details, it was really the love this couple has for each other that told me we had to share this wedding.
And as a pink fanatic, it’s not surprising that I love the bright pink color palate, but what I’m really swooning over are the fun splashes of orange in the bridesmaids’ summery frocks and blooming bouquets.
Of course, it was sooo much fun to design the dessert table-Kate made it very clear-she wanted “fun-fantasy.” So we played around with gerbera daisies and some jumbo pink balloons that served as our backdrop for the table. We also worked with an amazing orange-striped print that pulled everything together.
So here’s a little taste of the day. More detail shots coming soon!

Happy Monday (well almost)!
Well here I am…Natalie. So today, I thought I would share the flip side of my other passion in life…my precious family. I have to say that I never thought when I headed into this field that I would be posing for photo shoots, but these kind of unexpected surprises are what makes going out on my own totally worth it! For some time, I’ve been in desperate need of some photographs of my family but for miscellaneous reasons (work, kids, life, etc.) never got around to getting them done. Of course, the only person to get the job done was Rebecca Zoumberos from Limelight Photography!
The logistics of getting ready was a little nervewracking…what to wear….will the kids behave…can I manage to loose the extra pounds 🙂 However, once we arrived at Limelight’s beautiful studio (also affectionately known as “The Z Farm”), all the nervousness kind of went away. Rebecca is so easy going that to my surprise, once I relaxed a little and stopped thinking about how funny I probably looked, we had a great time and really loved how the photos turned out. Having all the kids run around crazy, definitely helps and really, could they be any cuter (Husband included)??
Well, enough talk…lets get on to the pictures!
