An Event to Remember
The Venue
Mission Inn Resort & Club is nestled in the rolling hills of Central Florida and in the heart of “wedding land”. Literally, couples from around the world come to this magical spot to capture its golden allure in an event to remember. There is golf to play, and skeet to shoot, as well as the abundance of nature to enjoy. Bridal parties come for weddings and tend to linger – not wanting to leave the surrounding beauty. The resort itself is located just north of Orlando in a little spot – Howey-In-The Hills. Come one, come all to this fantastic place!
The Ceremony
Lon Tosi of Celebration, Florida and the team of Sensational Ceremonies wedding officiants worked with Melisa and George to create a custom wedding ceremony. In fact, the couple wrote almost the entire ceremony themselves. It was creative and just plain gorgeous. It contained readings from the writer Richar Bach “A soul mate is someone who has locks that fit our keys, and keys to fit our locks” and Dr Seuss – “KIDS, YOU’LL MOVE MOUNTAINS! So, be your name Buxbaum or Dowrie or Bass or Mordecai Ali Van Allen O’Shea, you’re off to great places! Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting. So…get on your way!” And there were the custom ring vows: “I take you for now, tomorrow and for always!” Such beautiful words for a wonderful couple! It was an amazing event with tears and laughter.
The Vendors
Only great things can happen in a wedding ceremony when the perfect vendors are working it. It all starts with the planning company. And in this case, everything was perfect under the guiding force of Amanda Borrero owner of For The Love of Events . On time and just perfect! There were the amazing flowers complements of Country Club Flower Shop, and the delicious sweets of Le Petit Sweet . Sound is always important in a wedding, and of course, the fantastic Soundwave Entertainment under the guidance of Les Kopasz did not disappoint. They did a fantastic job as always. Hair and makeup were compliments of The 911 Stylist. Jennifer from Photocity captured the “secret and beautiful” moments. We cannot wait to see those photos! Donuts always add a touch of excitement at a wedding. Joy Donuts “did the trick”. Videos were captured by a great group from Elmwood Forest Productions. Married By Mail supplied the Florida Marriage License for the couple, and as always supplied it to their wedding officiant – Lon Tosi from Sensational Ceremonies.
And it all happened on a sunny day in the rolling hills of Central Florida! Melisa and George we wish you much luck and success with your marriage! May your days together be good and long upon this earth!
