Feeling musical? Because we’ll have you singing “Havana-na-na-na” by the end of the page! This Deering Estate wedding on our wedding blog today was inspired by ‘Old Havana’, which is only fitting considering it is the place where the couple’s engagement began! Their big day started at the gorgeous Plymouth Congregational Church in Coral Gables, outside Miami, Florida. This stunning venue captured the old Spanish style they were going for, as well as featured stunning Banyon trees perfect for taking photos in front of! It truly will transport you to another time thanks to an elegant bridal gown from the 70s, a vintage ride, and much more…
The bride shares…
We met right away during the first week of school as first year medical students in Pennsylvania. However, we didn’t get to know each other until later in the year in anatomy lab, when we joined the same study group. In between study sessions, we began adventuring together, and love quickly bloomed. We started exploring life together, and eventually became inseparable.
We loved the versatility of the Deering Estate wedding venue: cocktails while watching the sunset over the bay, dinner amongst the trees on the back patio, and the elegant dancing hall. We were trying to keep the venues close together to minimize travel for my husband’s Pittsburgh relatives, so when we realized the church and reception were a little farther apart, we decided to connect the two by providing a double decker bus tour down Old Cutler Road for transportation to the reception.
On their favorite moment from the day…
