Erika and Michael Head to Palm Beach, Florida

Erika and Michael’s ceremony and reception was held at Frenchman’s Creek, an exclusive country club in Palm Beach, Florida.

Erika had worked for my company as she was going through law school. I was delighted when she came to me and said, “I’ve seen you do enough events, I want to you to do my wedding when I get married.” I was so happy for her (almost like a proud parent) and, of course, I was honored. (Erika flew her whole team down for her special day. Everybody from the florist, to the entertainment to the stylist and wedding planner).

Michael, a talented photographer, is also a huge Bruce Springsteen fan. He fell in love with the tribute band, Boccigalupe and the Bad Boys, over the years and arranged to have them make the trip down from Jersey to perform at the wedding.

Not only was the facility and scenery of Frenchman’s Creek five stars, the service and hospitality was top-notch as well. The credit goes to the Catering Manager, Doug Foote, one of the most accommodating and professional gentlemen I’ve ever worked with.

The highlight of the night was when Erika’s dad came up on stage to do a set with the band. Michael, who purchased a new guitar that morning just for the occasion, also came up and joined the jam session to the delight of their guests.

Special thanks to Leigh, from Leigh Kinne Photography for allowing us to share her gorgeous reception photos on this journal entry.
