When she answered the door to her dorm room she could have never imagined that she had opened the door to her future husband. He was coming over with a friend to visit her roommate and once they got talking they found they had so many things in common. Turns out Danae and Ricky grew up down the street from each other in West Palm and even went to the same elementary school! They knew all the same people and somehow never ended up meeting each other, but destiny brought them together that night and they have been inseparable ever since. And if you can’t tell, they are absolutely crazy about each other!
On top of the fact that these two look like models, they are some of the sweetest people you’ll ever meet. Once we met their families, we knew exactly how they turned out to be such amazing and kind-hearted people. We LOVED their parents and siblings and we are so honored that they chose us to be a part of such a special day for them both. Aside from the wonderful time we had, we were in total heaven with the gorgeous details, venue, and florals. Once you scroll down, you’ll see exactly what I’m talking about! Danae thought of every detail and put so much love into every single aspect of their wedding day. We’re excited to share some images from one of our favorite weddings ever at The Palms Hotel with you all today!
