As a St. Augustine Live Wedding Painter, it’s always been so special for Ben to paint the Treasury on the Plaza! Stephanie and Ryan’s wedding day was such a joy to capture in the heart of this historic city we love oh so much!
But first, let’s talk about their St. Augustine Wedding details:
Let’s start with our favorite detail from their wedding day: Stephanie’s GOWN! There are sparkly dresses … and then there is Stephanie’s sparkling wedding gown. In all my (Jen’s) years of working for a bridal designer, collaborating with Ben, and photographing my own weddings … never have I ever seen a gown that caught the light like Stephanie’s! It was absolutely heavenly. Glittery. Magic!
The historic details of The Treasury on the Plaza bring so many layers of meaning as a St. Augustine Wedding Painter
Ben was thrilled capture their first dance for their live wedding painting … perfect for highlighting her gorgeous gown! The Treasury on the Plaza, located in St. Augustine’s Old Town, is such a dream venue. The main ballroom is so glamorous with marble columns and incredible architectural details. The Treasury on the Plaza was actually once a bank and the old Vault is now the venues bar!!
They danced and celebrated the night away with their closest friends and family … only a week shy of the pandemic closing down our wedding industry. Their painting holds a special place in our hearts … and oh how we long to celebrate like this again one day! Until then, masks up, and we wait patiently for this pandemic to pass! Cheers to this incredible couple – what a very special day for Ben to capture!
