Sneak Peek

Kirkland & Austin

February 27, 2026

Kirkland and Austin's wedding day at the Fountain of Youth started with just the two of them enjoying some peace and quiet while we photographed their amazing feather bow ties, wood-inlay rings, and custom "Drinks on us!" napkins from their three dogs — Layla, Leah, and Lana. Rain moved the ceremony indoors to the Magnolia Room, where The Blue Tulip filled the space with tropical greenery, a hanging palm chandelier, and a gold circular arch that made it feel like Plan A all along. The three labs walked down the aisle in floral garlands, then claimed front-row seats to watch their dads say "I do." A plated dinner by Urban Asada, a cake by Creme de la Cocoa with three fondant pups hiding underneath, and a dance floor that the ring bearer absolutely owned rounded out the night.
