A Beach Inspired Wedding at the Hilton Clearwater Beach in Clearwater Beach, Florida

Casey Miller, a C.P.A., 26, and Jorge Suarez, a pilot, 32, had an intimate beach wedding with a style that reflected their venue. While the couple held their September wedding toward the end of hurricane season, the weather was not an issue. Casey and Jorge had a "clear afternoon on our wedding day, a rainbow, and a beautiful sunset during our wedding," she says. Coral, navy and turquoise colors as well as seashell accents were used throughout the wedding. The couple's unity sand ceremony on the beach included simple and bright colored decor. An arrangement of coral roses, light blue cymbidium orchids and white asiatic lilies was placed under a large sand filled glasses. The also decorated the aisle with a burlap and seashell aisle runner and small floral accents or starfish on each aisle chair. Casey and Jorge's coral and turquoise reception was held indoors. "We had a buffet dinner featuring the best of the beach," says Casey. The couple served an assortment of fish and shellfish as well as jerked turkey breast, vegetables and other dishes. A four-tier beach inspired wedding cake decorated with candied seashells, coral roses and turquoise and green orchids was available for dessert. Jorge also had a helicopter shaped groom's cake. "Thanks to our awesome support, we were relaxed and just had a ball with our family and friends," says Casey.
