Once guests were seated for dinner they were entertained by a live performance of African dancers. Instead of the popular round tables, the bride and groom opted for long feasting bedazzled to the nines! A large diamond paper weight sat atop each menu card and the chairs were flanked with black diamond baubles. In glass and mirrored vessels , Concept Bait created jaw-dropping floral centerpieces consisting of gradient shades of dark reds and magentas and sprinkled with rhinestones (what more would you expect from a princess?). White chiffon created a backdrop and an array crystal chandeliers completed look.
Comedian Darrien Perkins, a.k.a. “Hair-larious” entertained guests during dinner. However, it was Catering by Design that stole the show. The staff provided a white-glove, synchronized service of a trio of appetizers, salads and duet entrees of of filet and sea bass. The dinner service ended with an organic tea service. Once dinner was over, the couple cut the truly artistic wedding cake created by Chocolate Pi.
Keeping true to their idea, guests continued to be entertained as they made their way to the South Beach-inspired lounge area. Surrounding the sparkling white dance floor were groupings of white furniture, 10’ truss tower chandeliers, a lighted bar that lit up the night. Guests danced the night way to the tunes spun by DJ Ekin, a well known club Dj in Tampa. Fulfilling their every dream, the prince and princess rode off in… what else? A white Rolls Royce.
