Christine and Joe’s March 2023 tropical Sarasota B&B wedding was a colorful soiree with family, friends, and furbabies! Guests were in paradise with radiant and lively wedding day details! Charcuterie boards, flip flops for guests, brilliant florals, and other bright details made this a wedding everyone would want an invite to!
Vibrant and Heartfelt Pre-Wedding Memories
Christine began the day in brilliant silk matching robes for wedding glam with her bridesmaids, while Joe entertained groomsmen with brews, wine, and tapas. Charcuterie boards for snacks were brought in for the bride, groom, and wedding party to enjoy. The most heartfelt moments included a special jewelry gift from Christine’s parents, quiet moments with bridesmaids, and a first look with her father.
Christine had a first look with Joe before her walk down the aisle. These two took full advantage of Palmetto Riverside’s tree swing, which was embellished with vivid tropical florals for wedding photos.
A Radiant Wedding Ceremony with Special Guests
All of Christine’s bridesmaids wore different gowns in vivid tropical hues, while Joe’s groomsmen mimicked this sentiment with their ties. Christine and Joe’s furbabies joined in on the fun with Fairytail Petcare attendants in tow. Both pooches sported tuxedos for the nuptials! Palmetto Riverside Bed and Breakfast was the perfect setting for this island-themed wedding, as the wedding ceremony overlooked the sparkling river.

Guests could trade in their shoes for flip-flops to dance the night away! Wedding guests and the wedding party celebrated under the stars. Christine and Joe toasted to their tropical Sarasota B&B wedding with personal flasks! One final sparkling moment, as they ended their wedding and walked into their beginning with a sparkler exit!
