A ROMANTIC JEWISH WEDDING AT CASA MARINA RESORT IN KEY WEST
Liz and Liam said "I do" at the beautifully renovated Casa Marina Resort in Key West, surrounded by the most wonderful group of family and friends. Their celebration featured a beautifully curated Jewish wedding ceremony, followed by an elegant reception filled with stunning florals, candlelight, incredible music, and so much love.
Planner's note: Jewish wedding ceremonies are my absolute favorite! There is something so special about the traditions, the symbolism, and the energy they bring to a wedding celebration.
We could not have asked for a better team of wedding vendors to bring Liz and Liam's vision to life.
Milan Events did an incredible job transforming the Flagler Ballroom at Casa Marina into a magical setting for this classic yet whimsical wedding. The design featured an abundance of white florals, subtle touches of light blue, and tons of candlelight, creating a romantic atmosphere that felt both timeless and inviting.
Planner's note: Dimming the lighting in a ballroom goes a long, long way when creating the right atmosphere. And so does thoughtfully placed uplighting! Lighting is one of those details that can completely transform a wedding reception.
Music was another highlight of Liz and Liam's wedding celebration. DJ Sanaris and Samantha Rise's band were the perfect combination, bringing together live entertainment and DJ performances throughout the evening.
The cocktail hour began with jazz classics before transitioning into more contemporary music, setting the tone for an incredible night of celebration. One of our favorite moments was Liz and Liam's first dance, accompanied by a beautiful live rendition of "Kiss Me."
One thing we have learned from planning weddings in the Florida Keys is that the weather does not always cooperate, but having an experienced team makes all the difference.
Photographer Dani Parada truly outdid herself with this wedding gallery, making the most of Casa Marina's beautiful interiors when the weather required a change of plans. Instead of outdoor portraits, she captured stunning images throughout the resort's corridors, iconic arches, and newly renovated Canary Room.
Planner's note: These are some of my favorite indoor photography locations at Casa Marina, and definitely worth considering when planning your wedding timeline!
A wedding is so much more than a beautiful setting. It is about creating an experience that guests will remember.
A huge thank you to Eventfully Yours for their seamless work and beautiful rentals, which complemented the overall wedding design.
Natasha kept guests entertained with her live sketches, such a fun and personal addition to a wedding celebration and a wonderful keepsake for guests to take home.
And because the celebration did not end with the reception, Historic Tours of America made sure everyone arrived dry and comfortably at the after-party at General Horseplay in Key West. It was the perfect way to continue an already unforgettable evening.
From the early stages of planning to the very last details of their celebration, it was such a pleasure working with Liz and Liam to bring their wedding vision to life. Full wedding planning is about so much more than putting together a beautiful event. It's about creating an experience that feels personal to each couple while making sure every detail comes together seamlessly.
We are so honored that Liz and Liam's romantic winter wedding at Casa Marina was featured on Loverly!
