Kaila & Grant- The Rusty Pelican Tampa, Fl.- Wedding

Collage of photoes showing bride and groom smiling at each other and details of their wedding day including perfume and invitations, plus the gazebo they got married in at the Rusty Pelican in Tampa, Florida.

When you picture the perfect day in Florida, what do you see?

Clear blue skies, soft waves hitting the shore, the most refreshing breeze to make the palm trees sway and plenty of sunshine. Well that is the exact picture of what Kaila and Grant’s wedding day looked like. They held their wedding at the stunning Rusty Pelican in Tampa with a reception in their Grand Ballroom overlooking the ocean. The room was bursting with love and an overwhelming sense of happiness for the newly married couple. It is very easy to see why everyone that knows this couple is so invested in their happiness; these two spread joy wherever they go.

When you see Kaila and Grant together, you just know they are perfectly paired. Watching Kaila walk down the aisle to her eagerly awaiting future husband was an unforgettable moment. The look in both of their eyes as they knew they were about to embark upon love’s greatest journey together was something to remember forever. These two had the most endearing ceremony and it truly was an accurate reflection of their relationship. It was beautiful, light and warm, fun but loving and highlighted what matters the most; their love for one another.

After the ceremony, we spent time with the couple and their wedding party taking portraits.

Of course, being photographers, this is one of our favorite parts. We love getting to create those timeless images that will last for generations. However, not only were we enjoying the photographing aspect of this time, we really got to spend time with their close friends and family and we were blown away. Each person was kinder than you could imagine, so much fun to be around and fully there to celebrate their best friends wedding day. Let me tell you, Kaila and Grant have an incredible team of friends by their side cheering them on.

We also LOVED seeing our bride and groom in action sharing all the posing tips they learned during our engagement session with the group! We felt so proud! These two do give off serious model vibes and we could photograph them all day!

Kaila and Grant,

We want to scream congratulations from the rooftops to you two!! Your wedding was the most beautiful day and it was because you two deserve nothing less than the best!
