Walker's Landing is such a beautiful venue, and you have to know someone in the right places in order to get married there. Cate and Josh sure are lucky! The fun started when emcee, Charlene Shirk, introduced the wedding party, and Cate and Josh wowed the guests with their choreographed first dance! Then the guests were treated to delicious lamp chops from Mathew's Restaurant! They even had sliders and fries towards the end of the reception. Cate and Josh also had glow-in-the dark glasses and rings for the guests. They had a fun photo-booth for the guests to enjoy as well, and keep the pictures as wedding favors. Seriously, Cate and Josh know how to throw a party!! It probably helps also that Cate works in the wedding industry and is one of the catering sales manager at TPC Sawgrass :)
It got really cold towards the end of the night, but Cate and Josh's love for each other was very heart-warming :) It was great to see many familiar faces at the reception, and I was sad when it was time to say goodbye. They had one of the coolest send-offs I have ever seen by the way, which was releasing paper lanterns into the sky and watching them float away! Congratulations to the lovebirds, and be sure to check out their slideshow for more pictures!
Enjoy!
XOXO

THEIR LOVE STORY:
How did you guys
meet:
A mutual friend wanted us to meet and was going to set it
up after the relationship he was in ended. Fast forward six months and we were both at the Ritz after
watching World Cup soccer. I gave
him my business card and the next day the friend emailed me and said she knew I had given my bsn
card away. I was pretty surprised
she knew this, considering she was out of town. Come to find out Josh was the person she had wanted me to
meet all of those months prior.
Describe the
proposal:
We went to
dinner and a movie and when we got home he had lit up the entire back yard with
white lights and had a friend come over and set up a roaring fire with glasses
of champagne waiting. I walked out
after he called me to come outside to him on one knee and our dog Tucker at his
side.
What is your
favorite thing to do on your date night:
Trying a new restaurant and splurging on fantastic wine.
What do
you love about him so much:
His kindness to
everyone. He speaks to every
single person he encounters. When
he sees someone struggling he is always first to help. Be it a stranger or a close family
member. He is a good person down
deep in his soul and will do whatever is possible to make me happy and build a
successful future for our family
What do
you love about her so much (in Josh's own words):
How do I love thee, let me count the ways:
I love that we can talk about everything
and that we have no secrets.
You are my best friend.
You challenge me to be a better person
and try new things.
Push me to be more open minded and
health conscious.
Comforts me and rubs my back when I have
had a rough day.
Someone who loves their family and
friends so much that she would do anything for them.
What is your wedding invitation like and where did you go to get it done:
Classic, timeless, iconic…It was a combination of Etsy, wedding paper
divas and cards and pockets.
What are your
wedding colors and why did you guys choose that color palette:
Deep
jewel tones-peacock blue, hydrangea purple and slate gray. I’ve always loved the deep blues and
purples of hydrangeas and knew they would work well for my look and with the
bridesmaid’s dresses.
Describe your
wedding cake:
I’ve always known I would use Classic Cakes. After years of tasting wedding
cakes from all over the city I can be blindfolded and can still pick out which
is a classic. We had a simple two
tier with our monogram and embellishment mimicking our invite. His was a construction site with a
large backhoe sitting on top.
Where did you go
for your honeymoon:
All over Italy!
What are you
looking forward to in the future together:
Building a family.
