A black-tie wedding at Wandering Oaks in Myakka City, Florida.
Max and Alexia are MARRIED!! These high-school sweet hearts had a stunning black tie wedding at Wandering Oaks in Myakka City, Florida. The day was filled with so much laughter and a love like none other.
I loved the colors and vibe from the day. Max and Alexia requested all their guests to come dressed in black. With the guests dressed in their finest attire and the couple wearing white, it created a scene of classic elegance against the backdrop of nature’s beauty.
Max and Alexia have the greatest group of family and friends that hyped them up all day. It was a blast being with the bridal party and creating fun Tik-Tok’s. I loved witnessing the sweet relationship Alexia has with her mother and Nana. Her Nana gave her vintage pearls (Alexia’s favorite) to wear for her wedding day. Not only were the pearls beautiful, but they have been worn and passed down for generations!
Their Christ-centered ceremony was held under a beautiful canopy of oak trees. The ceremony was extra special because Max’s Grandfather officiated the wedding ceremony. The ceremony ended with the bride and groom braiding the Cord of Three Strands together and a special prayer with their parents.
As the sun began to set over Wandering Oaks, guests made their way to the reception area filled with Edison lights that sparkled throughout the venue. The fun and spunky personalities definitely came out during the reception. The Best Man’s speech had everyone laughing (and Max won twenty-bucks from his dare) and the choreographed father-daughter dance had everyone up and cheering!
After an incredible time dancing the night away, the couple made their grand exit through sparklers. Truly, the perfect way to end the evening. Their wedding at Wandering Oaks was unforgettable!
