Elopement Ceremony at the Don CeSar
Dawn and Mark took a road trip from Oklahoma for their Elopement Ceremony at the Don CeSar on St. Pete Beach on a beautiful morning in early June.
The Don is a True Legend. Dramatically perched atop wind-swept dunes with expansive views in every direction, The Don CeSar is the epitome of old-world glamour and sophistication. Since 1928, it has graciously welcomed the world’s elite, stars of the silver screen, renowned authors, U.S presidents and even a gangster or two, all seeking a private, sophisticated playground in the sun. Today guests can experience the legendary Pink Palace® for themselves in all its iconic and romantic grandeur.
Dawn walked across the sand by herself, to join Mark at their ceremony site on the beach in front of the iconic swing behind the Don. The couples’ custom designed ceremony included the Blessing of the Hands. Then, with an amazing view of the Gulf of Mexico as their backdrop, and in front of their two friends, the couple shared their vows, exchanged rings and were pronounced husband and wife by Rev Rick Lackore of Sensational Ceremonies.
Venue and Event coordination was provided by Devin, and the rest of the staff at The Don CeSar. Special thanks to Tammy, with True Love Photography, for providing this beautiful picture during their ceremony.
Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Mark Nichols!
