Magnolia Manor Wedding in Vero Beach, Florida

The way Jonathan smiled at Layla as she walked down the aisle was one I’ll never forget. Their Magnolia Manor Wedding in Vero Beach, Florida was just as beautiful as that moment. They smiled at each other the entire ceremony and radiated so much joy and love. Some couples you just know they were meant to be, and they were one of those couples.

Groom and His Mother’s First Look

Sometimes mothers of the groom can feel a little left out on the wedding day, so I thought it was so special when Jonathan and his mother planned to share a first look together. His mother was so excited to see him all dressed up and pin his boutonniere on his suit. When he turned around, you could see her go weak in the knees with love and pride. They embraced and she shed a few tears telling him how proud she was of him. It was such a sweet moment I will never forget.

Rambunctious Outdoor Reception at Magnolia Manor

Their reception was definitely one for the books! For bridal party entrances, the bridal party had to put together a secret entrance to surprise the bride and groom. They were competing to win a giant check for $100 for the “best entrance”! I had never seen this before and thought this was such a fun idea! Two groomsmen and a bridesmaid first came in with sunglasses and Nerf guns, shooting at the couple. The second set came in shotgunning a beer. The third set came in wearing each other’s clothes. Seeing a groomsman in a dress and a blonde wig will always get everyone laughing by the way! Haha! Then the next couple the bridesmaid was pregnant, so she faked going into labor, only to act like she popped out a beer and the groomsmen chugged it. Another couple came in with cowboy hats and fake dollar bills and then proceeded to throw money at the couple and into the crowd. The last couple, the best man and maid of honor, came in wearing inflatable costumes and ultimately won the $100 check! It was the best entrance I had ever witnessed and I loved how cheesy and awesome it was!
