armature works wedding: andrea + domenick

Weddings

To know the two of them, is to completely understand that each is the other’s best friend. They don’t just have that surface kind of love, full of affectionate hugs and sweet whispers put on for the world to see. What they have goes deeper. You see it in the way they talk to each other, and the way they so easily laugh together. They are comfortable with each other in the way a person is within their own skin, and to know the two of them you know why. Because after all this time, each of them is so intricately woven into the soul of the other that knowing them is knowing them as one . . . .

Andrea and Dom are married! After a sweet first look outside of the Downtown Tampa Hilton where Dom had the most perfect reaction to seeing his stunning bride, the entire wedding party boarded a trolley bound for portraits at UT. It was so fun to go over the bridge and see the river dyed green for St. Patty’s day, which perfectly tied into the festive atmosphere created by the entire bridal party all day long. F’REAL. This was a group that was ready for a fun day! We were so incredibly lucky to arrive at Plant Park and find some of the most gorgeous light and, and were seriously smitten with how all of the portraits turned out.

After a quick stop at the Tampa mural, the two of them were married in a sweet ceremony in the Social Room at Armature Works, before a cocktail hour and reception in The Gathering space. We love all of the spaces at Armature (because each one is obviously stunning on it’s own!) but we’ve quickly become partial to the exposed brick and chandeliers of The Gathering Room. This is a room meant for some seriously epic parties, and Andrea and Dom’s reception most definitely didn’t disappoint!

Andrea and Dom, we have loved every minute we’ve gotten to spend with you both, which of course culminated with your best day ever! Thank you for having us along for the ride, and for making it so fun!

Love + Laughs,

Sarah & Ben
