A gentle breeze, crisp champagne, and coastal light set the stage for this chic celebration at The Ritz-Carlton, Sarasota.
With an alfresco ceremony framed by white blooms and sea views, the day unfolded with intention and understated hospitality. Guests were greeted with flutes of bubbles before taking their seats on the palm-lined lawn, while a modern black-and-white reception—complete with sleek black and silver chairs—carried the celebration into the evening. The Ritz-Carlton’s impeccable hospitality and the couple's timeless design made this fête as seamless as it was striking.
