Quarterdeck Resort on Gull Lake, with its casual-elegance and nautical ambiance, was the perfect setting for Tara and Anthony’s dream wedding. The resort hosted an unforgettable wedding weekend for the couple’s closest family and friends, and we were so honored to be a part of this sweet couple’s big day!  From the moment we met at their engagement session in Florida, Tara and Anthony have been a dream to work with! It has also been a privilege to serve alongside the incredible Ashley Skeie Events.  Ashley and Katie ensured that every detail, including the gorgeous florals throughout the day, were simply breathtaking!

The morning began with the men in their suits by Milbern Clothing Company and Tara and the ladies in their matching blue robes. Styled by Abbi was so sweet to work with and did an amazing job on hair and makeup!  Tara’s mom helped her into her stunning gown by Pronovias from the White Room. The ladies, dressed in their gowns by Revelry, had the sweetest reactions to seeing Tara in her dress! Tara and Anthony’s first look was also filled with sweet emotion.  Their love for each other is absolutely beautiful!  The tears continued throughout the ceremony from the moment Anthony watched Tara walk down the aisle, to the music, to the happy tears after tying the knot!  Alyssa from Relive Films did an amazing job of capturing the emotions on video.

Following the ceremony, Tara and Anthony set sail to celebrate on a sailboat and the wedding party headed out to enjoy the lake on pontoons.  Upon return, they kicked off the reception with dinner and the most beautiful speeches.  Guests enjoyed desserts by Sweet Life Bakery before we headed out for a few golden hour photos of the newlyweds.  Electrifying Dynamics hosted the dance and the evening ended with a sparkler send-off.  Tara and Anthony, it was truly a joy serving you for your incredible wedding day!
