A Romantic Antique Garden Wedding at Estancia Culinaria in Redland, Florida

Lydia Nodar (29 and a legal assistant) and Michael Alvarez (30 and an attorney) met on a night out at Sandbar, despite having many of the same friends all throughout high school and crossing paths numerous times. They lost touch again after that night but some time later when they ran into each other again, Mike asked Lydia out and the two clicked instantly. Some time later, Mike was in their 3 month old daughters room and called Lydia's name. She walked into the room and he was standing there holding their baby who was wearing a onesie that read "Will You Marry Daddy?". Around one of her fingers was the princess cut diamond ring Mike had designed based on inspiration pictures Lydia had secretly saved on the computer. The venue came as a surprise to even the bride and groom themselves. They held the wedding at Estancia Culinaria, an avocado farm full of romantic charm and enchanting scenery. The couple decorated the area in a color palette of blush, gold and white, complete with antique furniture and used vintage pieces. The cocktail hour began with a violinist and an accordion playing french bistro style music while guests were served baked brie and croquettes. The reception was focused on neon lit dancing under the stars and a late night snack of fritas with fries in a cone. Instead of favors, Lydia and Michael had Donut Divas come and serve fresh fried oreos and donuts at the end of the night.
