Dee and Tonya at St Augustine bayfront with Bridge of Lions

Sneak Peek

Dee & Tonya

July 22, 2025

We've known Dee for years, so when he reached out about his wedding we were thrilled. Dee works downtown and knows everyone—he's the kind of guy who has connections everywhere. Case in point: Mrs. Carla from The Wedding Authority, who's been running the show over there for more than 40 years, personally came out to let us into the Lightner courtyard for photos. We wandered through the colonnade, grabbed some shots on the brick streets downtown, and ended up at the bayfront as the sun went down. Congrats to Dee and Tonya!
