I recently photographed Zac and Joey’s wedding at the Tampa Garden Club. December weddings can be hit or miss with the weather but they had a perfect day. It was 12/13/14 which is the last consecutive wedding date available until 1/2/3003!

Epicurian hotel WeddingTampa Garden Club Wedding_002 They wedding party and friends stayed at the Epicurian Hotel. It’s a new hotel that is very modern and hip. I’m always looking for places to take my wife on those very rare weekends when we can get away for a night and The Epicurian is on my list now.Tampa Garden Club Wedding_001 Tampa Garden Club Wedding_003 Tampa Garden Club Wedding_004 Tampa Garden Club Wedding_005 Tampa Garden Club Wedding_006 I love “first look” pictures. Grooms can be so self-conscious during the ceremony and they are more relaxed if they see the bride before.Tampa Garden Club Wedding_007 Tampa Garden Club Wedding_008

This should be a wedding tradition! Everyone does a shot before the wedding!
