Botanical Garden Wedding at Sunken Gardens in St. Petersburg, FL | Erica + Luis
Where do we begin? We've known and adored the bride and groom since college - the groom is even one Corey's groomsmen. Erica and Luis' wedding was exceptionally important to us and they granted us full creative license to produce whatever we found fit. We were able to focus strictly on capturing clean and beautiful video while the rest of the day was taken care of by an array of helping hands. Every detail was carefully considered and the outcome was a true testament to their unique personalities and the life they've built together.
Erica and Luis Gonzalez were married on October 24, 2015 in Saint Petersburg, Florida. Their classically romantic and tropical ceremony was held at Sunken Gardens and the reception proceeded at Nova 535. Destined for marriage since first passing glances in high school, these two graduated from Flagler College in Saint Augustine, FL and then swiftly packed their bags and moved to NYC where Luis found success as a designer at Squarespace. Erica, an exceptional fine artist and photographer herself, beams endlessly with pride and excitement over the happiness they've found in the city, and the love they found within each other. Their love, passion and ambition are inspirational to everyone around them, including us. We couldn't be more grateful to have had this opportunity and we'd like to take this moment to say, Luis and Erica... we love you.
As a beautiful day, becomes a beautiful life....
From Erica:
“On our wedding day I was SO happy and I had so many overwhelming emotions, oddly enough I didn't cry much. Now, every time I watch our video, everything floods back in and I can't help but cry my face off. Our wedding video truly captured every single thing that was important to us that day. We told Corey and Paige that we wanted our vows highlighted because we wanted to remember those words and be able to hold onto that emotion. During those few minutes during the ceremony, only the two of us mattered and Corey and Paige discreetly captured and locked in those moments for us forever. I say in the video, "I can't wait to show this to our kids one day" and that couldn't be any more true!
Luis and I have known each other for 11 years and married for 1 year and I know in 10 years, 30 years, 50 years...etc, and I know this video will be so cherished throughout our life together. “
