There are wedding days that are elegant, some that are emotional, and others that are pure joy—but every once in a while, one comes along that’s all three. Yasmeen and John’s Crown & Bull wedding in Dunedin was exactly that: heartfelt, hilarious, and one big celebration from start to finish.
The day began at a nearby Airbnb where Yasmeen got ready with her mom and sister. There were so many sweet moments between the three of them—shared laughter, joyful tears, and the kind of excitement that bubbles over in the best way. Before the ceremony, Yasmeen also surprised John with a few meaningful gifts to honor his late papa, making sure his presence was deeply felt on this important day.
Their ceremony at the historic Andrews Memorial chapel was filled with laughter, happy tears, and all the love you’d expect from a couple as fun and connected as these two. And then? It was time to head to the party!
And what a party it was. The reception took place on the patio of the Crown & Bull in downtown Dunedin. It was everything a Florida wedding should be—laid-back, stylish, and completely personalized. The decor brought all the tropical vibes with pops of orange slices, lush greenery, and vibrant plants that made every table feel like a citrusy sunset.
Their first dance? Not your typical slow sway. These two brought the fun, with playful moves, surprise lifts, and so many laughs we lost count. And just when everyone thought they’d seen it all—boom—Yasmeen and John dropped a surprise pregnancy announcement! The cheers, the happy tears, the pure joy…let’s just say there wasn’t a dry eye (or empty glass) in the house. The dance floor stayed full all night, and the vibes were so fun. The night ended with a glowing sparkler exit, sending the newlyweds off in a shower of light and love.
Yasmeen and John, your wedding was the perfect mix of heart and humor, just like the two of you. We feel so lucky to have been there to capture it all—from the big laughs to the little in-between moments—and we know this next chapter of your love story is going to be your best yet!
Love + Laughs,
Sarah & Ben
