Here one of our couples celebrated their Orlando destination wedding at Cypress Grove Estate. If you like a touch of vintage, lake views, and privacy for your ceremony this might be the spot for you. Cypress Grove Estate is a wonderful location for small destination weddings and large weddings alike. You may opt for only having the ceremony there or include your reception. The beautiful garden offers plenty of photo opportunities and old large Oak Trees are a perfect background for a Southern-style wedding.
Orlando Destination Wedding – Real Wedding Elopement
Their Special Day
Mr. and Mrs. Brunner arrived with their guests from Germany. They have been vacationing in Florida before and were looking for a spot that offers beautiful outdoor and indoor options. Cypress Grove Estate in Orlando was the perfect fit for them. They decided to have their ceremony at the large pergola with views of the lake. They did not wish for a full reception with their small group and had just a champagne toast and wedding cake after the ceremony. Many couples choose a more simple approach when planning a destination wedding. Isa loves the color purple and lavender, so she wanted those colors incorporated into her wedding theme.
Isa’s bridal bouquet
Her hand-tied bridal bouquet featured creme and lavender roses, Alstromeria and Wax Flowers. The stems are wrapped with a purple satin ribbon. The playful-looking bouquet perfectly fits her bubbly personality.
Getting Ready
Isa made use of the bridal room to get dressed. Her hair and makeup were done at the hotel previously and she just changed into her gown at Cypress Grove. The bridal room is airconditioned and comfortable for brides to wait until it is time to walk down the aisle.
The Ceremony
We started the ceremony early afternoon and Isa’s father walked her down the aisle. As a high light of the ceremony, the couple released butterflies. A Native American saying is that if you whisper a wish to a butterfly, it will carry it to the great spirit who may grant your wish.
The Toast and wedding cake with family and friends
Their little Orlando destination wedding did not need an elaborate reception. They opted for some champagne to toast and a piece of wedding cake. At the same time, we all had some air conditioning to cool off.
The Couples Intimate Photo Session
After the small reception Isa, Arne, and the photographer went for the couple’s photo session. The location offers so many opportunities and backgrounds for photos. Perfect for an Orlando destination wedding southern style. The roses in the garden were in full bloom and added extra romance. The large oak trees with Spanish Moss, a fountain and rose garden, the lake and estate – and so many more locations for photos. The vintage car topped it off and sent the couple on their honeymoon.
Congratulations to Isa and Arne. We wish you only the best.
