Elizabeth & Nicholas’ summer celebration, from the Coral Gables Congregational Church to The Club of Knights in Coral Gables, Florida.

Elizabeth and Nicholas said “I do” on a beautiful summer day in Coral Gables, Florida.

The day began at The Loews, where Elizabeth slipped into her stunning mermaid gown. Before the ceremony, the couple shared a first touch and a quiet, private prayer together.

They exchanged vows at the Congregational Church of Coral Gables, one of Miami’s most beautiful and historic landmarks. Guests cheered them on as they stepped out of the church to ringing bells, with a white Rolls-Royce waiting to carry them to The Club of Knights.

There, endless lines of white roses and candlelight gave the reception a warm, romantic glow, all flawlessly designed by Amara Rose Events.

Scroll to see the images from Elizabeth & Nicholas’ wedding in Coral Gables, from getting ready at The Loews to the last song on the dance floor.
