{ kimmie + ricky | palm beach gardens wedding | pga }

Kimmie + Ricky’s wedding at the PGA National Resort & Spa was awash in hues of plum and lavender and fuchsia beautifully created by Camden Gardens Floral.

Never underestimate the power of petals… lots and lots of petals!!!

I just love this bridal bouquet, with plum Calla Lilies as the focal point.

As her bridesmaids got her dressed, she was fussed over by her hair and make-up staff.

Mom helps crochet her many buttons closed…

Then shared a tender mother-daughter moment.

Once the garter was secure…

It was time for the oh so cool, plum shoes.

Check out the bottoms… even the soles were emblazoned with matching “I Do” rhinestones.

Kimmie was a vision in her stunning Maggie Sottero Gown.

A quick kiss for dad…

Then her flowers arrived via her adorable flower girl.

Kimmie and her girls, all in matching plum knee length dresses by Priscilla of Boston, posed for the cameras before heading out.

I just adored the super cute custom decorated cookies… which were a gift from one of Kimmie’s bridesmaids.

I couldn’t stop taking pictures of them. Okay, enough with the cookies… last one. : )

Off went the girls down the pretty staircase.

Cut to: Another suite, on another floor… Ricky and the boy readied, with some help from his mom and son.

Then, out they went… heading off to the spa for the groom’s first look as his bride2b.

Here Kimmie takes a breath before the big reveal.

Clearly, she took his away. Ricky was speechless.

After their portraits, they met up with the wedding party…

And Ricky got some extra pre-wedding wishes and kisses from the little ones…

The ceremony, was held right before sunset, at the Pavilion.

After their “i do’s,” they exited…

To a Mariachi band…

Cocktails were served outdoors…

Since Kimmie + Ricky are both f+b professionals at the Four Seasons Palm Beach, naturally their Palm Beach Gardens wedding was a “Foodie’s Dream.” Check out these yummy appetizers.

The reception space was uplit in purple. Silver Chiavari chairs, surrounded square and round silver and white overlayed tables.

The centerpieces, were an assortment of candles, floral floated vases, and floral arrangements. Exquisitely crafted by Cary at Camden Gardens Floral.

The silver trimmed glass chargers, allowed the table to show through. The plum napkins sat beneath the custom menus.

The cake, masterfully crafted by piece of cake by elena, had plum ribbons, and custom flowers on top made of sugar.

After the newlyweds first dance…

There were toasts…

More dancing..

Cake cutting…

And smashing…

And sweets…. lots of yummy sweets.

The fabulous color-coordinated Candy Buffet, dripping in crystals, was designed by “Somethin’ Delicious.” This delectable spread was one of the most gorgeous displays I have ever seen.

After the bouquet and garters were tossed…

The party raged on into the night, as the oh so talented, Rock With You, headed by MC Ross Bielejeski, set the dance floor on fire.

But as their perfect evening ended…

The new Mr. & Mrs…

Started their honeymoon off in style in PGA’s fabulous presidential suite.
