Founder, Wedding Planner & Photographer

Babette Hill

Hello, I am Babette and I have lived with my husband Mickey Hill since 1999 in Florida. I was born in Munich Germany and started my wedding planning company in Florida in September 2002. I have extensive experience in catering operations and event planning.  As the daughter of a commercial photographer and Art painter, creativity and photography have always come naturally to me. In 2004, I integrated my photography into our wedding planning service. Since then I photographed hundreds of weddings and events.  To me the planning of weddings and photography is not a job, it is a calling where you never stop learning something new. I am thankful to be able to do what I love to do.

In honor of my late husband

Mickey Hill

In loving memory of my husband of 24 years who passed on December 16, 2023. Mickey officiated weddings for over 20 years and made so many couples happy with his big smile and wonderful personality. You are dearly missed.

In his own words

I have been officiating weddings since 2002 and love to interact with people from all over the world. To me each and every single wedding is unique. I like to laugh and it is important to me that you can express your individualities and together we create a loving and fun-filled wedding ceremony.  I have a beautiful calling in life, spreading the good news of love, happiness, and togetherness. Every human action has a reaction. I am appreciative to be a human whose action has a positive reaction. All couples have their own passionate ways of saying ” I do”. My heart and soul absorb those tender moments.

Planning a Destination Wedding?

Destination weddings in Florida are what we do. With plenty of experience, we understand the difficulties of planning a wedding away from home. If you are planning a wedding just for you two or with guests we will be there along the way.  You may choose one of our destination wedding packages or we can create a customized event according to your wishes.

We offer our service in Central and North Florida including St. Augustine, Cocoa Beach, Orlando, and from Crystal River down to Sarasota but travel fees may apply.  With plenty of beaches to choose from most weddings are beach weddings. But not only the beaches are beautiful in Florida. There are plenty of other locations for your wedding ceremony. Some examples are parks, historic sites, chapels, or weddings on the water.

We love to see you here in Florida and plan your special day.

Florida Beach Wedding packages and Lifestyle weddings

Lifestyle Beach Wedding Packages in Florida.

Let us help you to plan your perfect beach wedding or elopement!

Pre designed beach wedding packages and elopements.

Are you interested in a pre-designed Florida beach wedding package? Take a look at our Lifestyle beach weddings and elopement packages. Created by us for smaller weddings with 20 or fewer guests. For larger weddings with 20 or more guests, we will customize a package for you. Because logistics, parking, and other aspects have to be considered with larger beach weddings, we recommend choosing facilities that offer ceremonies and receptions on location.  We will be happy to assist you in finding the perfect spot.

Why couples choose a beach wedding package?

We created our Florida beach wedding packages for busy couples that like to keep it simply beautiful. Many of our clients come from out of state or travel to Florida from International destinations. All our beach wedding packages are ceremony-only packages. They are available at any public beach where weddings are permitted, private beach homes, resorts, or facilities that allow outside vendors.

We can always adjust a beach wedding package to reflect your visions and dreams.

Beach Wedding decoration and regulations.

All our wedding arches are decorated with beautiful fresh flowers and greenery. Very selected beach decor features a combination of artificial twigs or trees with real flowers. Most public beaches in Florida will require a beach permit as soon as decoration or ceremony chairs are set up. Beach permits are not included in the package price. Pricing can vary but you should calculate between $100 – $550 on permit fees.

Our Florida beach wedding packages are also available for vow renewals, commitment ceremonies, rainbow weddings, or other celebrations of Love.

Depending on the chosen location travel fees will apply.

We like to keep our beach wedding packages simply beautiful!

Unlike many other companies that provide countless Florida beach wedding packages, we like to keep it simple. This will give you the option to choose the desired decoration and add services you actually want or need rather than including such services. 80% of all our couples want to customize their event to fit their budget, wishes, and dreams. Therefore we only feature a few packages to give you an idea. The sky is the limit when it comes to weddings.

Even More Reasons to Love Us

No matter if you choose a beach wedding package, other locations within Florida, or want a custom-designed event. We have you covered.

Preferred Partner Perks

You can take advantage of discounted pricing from the partner vendors we love. That may include service providers like Hair and Makeup Artists, videographers, as well as resorts or ceremony locations.

Exclusive Wedding Planner

We book only one wedding or event per day! No matter how small or large your event is. We exclusively will be by your side to assist you on the day of your wedding. All the packages include coordination of services that are book through us.

Flexible Planning

All wedding packages or services we offer can be custom arranged to fit your wishes and needs. You absolutely don’t have to book the vendors that we recommend. You are always welcome to book your own preferred providers. But keep in mind scheduling and payments will be your responsibility.

One Stop Wedding Shop

Many services are provided directly by us. This includes professional photography, officiant service, Florida marriage license filing service, floral design, and custom event decoration upon request.

Event Design and Floral

Floral Design for wedding in Florida photo of wedding arch with fresh flowers

Floral Design

All of our fresh flower bridal bouquets, ceremony, and reception flowers are designed in-house. You may choose your desired flowers and provide us with pictures and photos of your wishes.

Predesigned wedding packages that include fresh flowers are mostly arranged with a mix from the economical and standard selection in the color of your choice. You may upgrade your bridal bouquet or the complete design with your desired flowers.

Fresh flower arrangements can get quite expensive if you choose premium or luxury flowers. Please tell us your budget for flowers and we will be happy to suggest a design that fits your purse and wishes. A rule of thumb is, as the more different flowers are included in the design the higher the price. Seasonal flowers purchased out of season will have a hefty upcharge or are simply not available. Florida has a tropical climate and some of the more fragile flowers do not agree with our temperatures and are not suitable for outdoor weddings,  especially in the hotter summer months.

Fresh Flowers

We purchase flowers for our floral design fresh cut from the distributor. They are the same quality as if you purchase them at your local Florist. We order at the same places they do. Because we don’t have overhead we can offer competitive pricing.

Wedding arch decoration can vary greatly in price depending on chosen flowers. I often see featured elaborately decorated arches and chuppahs with nothing but roses and orchids. Flower arrangements like that will have a hefty price tag and can run over $1000 just for decorating the wedding arch. Please keep this in mind when sending us photos.

Our predesigned wedding arches in our packages include either 2 arrangments on each side with greenery and flowers fitting your color theme or one medium arrangement in the center of the arch or one-sided corner style. Another option is babies’ breath with natural twigs featured on the Boho arch. Flowers are the designer’s choice but you may select the colors and style you are going for. We do exclude flowers you absolutely don’t want. We are also happy to custom design with your specifications to an additional cost.
