Romantic Wedding at the Estate | Lena + Jimmy

I had one of the most beautiful engagement sessions in Tampa with Lena + Jimmy! If you have not been to the Ringling Museum, you should go, if you’re a photographer you should photograph there, your couples will love it. Ultimately I met Jimmy and Lena from Cayla + Jeff’s wedding back in 2014. The connections I have made over my lifetime of photographing is unmeasurable and humbling. This beautiful wedding you are about to view is one of those exact reasons why I love my job so much!  Congrats to Lena and Jimmy the Estate on the Halifax as always was an amazing host for a wedding! Sequins, monograms, and lavender colors were the perfect decor for this fun couple. Florida just could not make up its mind about the weather this day. In the end, we ended up with a perfect but cloudy day, you can’t go wrong there. The Estate on the Halifax is a great venue for any type of wedding! Their staff all work together to make it happen so the couple can have the best day possible. Lena and Jimmy had a beautiful ceremony in the Chapel, with a lightened mood, thanks to a few funny comments during the exchanging of the vows. They were all smiles during their portraits, just like their get to know you session we had at the end of last year. Time sure does fly! Fun introductions, a first dance for the newlyweds and beautiful speeches led us to a great dinner, catered by the always wonderful Aunt Catfish. The Estate on the Halifax and Aunt Catfish are just a few of the amazing vendors we got to work alongside with! See the list below for the others. After a delicious dinner, the couple, along with their friends and family, got to dance the rest of the night away. Everyone lined up as we sent the couple off to their new beginning together! Congrats to Lena and Jimmy! Take a peek at their big day below.
