"Carry on, love is coming, love is coming to us all." - Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young

April was a big month for pool parties and going into May was a great wedding at the West Martello right on Higgs Beach.  What a really unique setting that the Key West Garden Club has created.  It's actually an old fort that they have turned into a garden, filled with orchids, and pathways to incredible views of the ocean.

Nothing to complain about here...

Congratulations to the newlyweds Mr. & Mrs. Sawyer who's grand entrance song was Tom Sawyer by Rush.  That was the first time Key West DJ Company Visualize Entertainment played that song as a grand entrance and I believed it to be very fitting.


One of the unique things I really liked at their wedding was having a section of the Martello devoted to taking Polaroid pictures.  Their guests would grab the camera, maybe some funny sunglasses or umbrella hat and take a picture of themselves and hang it on a clothesline for the bride and groom to take back with them as a memento of their guests.

The polaroid's were being hung to dry

Guests were given the option to dress up with funky items to make the picture more interesting

Dinner was catered by Small Chef at Large who made a wonderful Jamaican style meal and the cake was created by Key West Cakes who made a cake very fitting to the area.

Looks like the fisherman bagged him a winner

It was no trouble at all getting the guests up and dancing.  In fact, there was not one person sitting down during the last 1.5 hours of the reception!  They requested all the classic dance hits, which helped create an environment any age could enjoy.

Guests kept coming up and telling me this was the best wedding reception they had ever been to, and it was clear to see,  the bride and groom were having an amazing time as well.  Even the bride got in the mix and dj'ed a couple songs!

Thank you to all the vendors who came out and made the event a memorable experience.  Listed below are all the vendors present at the wedding for your convenience in case you are interested in using them for your next big event!
