Sun Kissed Weddings is excited to be running our first "Best Florida Beach Wedding Bouquet of the Year" contest. We invited our brides that are following us on Facebook to enter. The only rules were that they had to get their bouquet from Sun Kissed Weddings and they must have been one of our 2010 brides. We had 15 brides that wanted to compete. We running three rounds in the contest; each lasting one week. There will be 5 brides in each round. The top two winners of each round will move onto the final round. The winner of the final round will receive a surprise photo gift from Sun Kissed Weddings.

The contest has been running for two days and we already have over 500 votes. We have seen voting from all over the US and Europe. Votes have come in from as far away as Turkey and Oman. It is very exciting!

I thought it would be nice to introduce our 5 contestants and their bouquets. They are listed in order from the photos above.

Bouquet#1: This Hot Pink Rose and White Tulip bouquet was created for the wedding of Heather and William. They were married at sunset on June 17th at Lighthouse Point Park in Ponce Inlet, Florida. This location is located close to Daytona Beach. You could feel their love as they exchanged their vows surrounded by their children. It was a beautiful wedding!

Bouquet #2: Margaret and Mike were married at the start of the New Year: January 2nd. Their ceremony was held at Sand Key Park in Clearwater Beach, Florida. They were united together at sunset. Margaret carried a bouquet of Pink Stargazer Lilies and Cream Roses. They shared this special day with their son. Margaret had a smile beautiful smile; and it was so great planning her wedding with her.

Bouquet #3: This bouquet of Orange Roses and Seashells was so much fun to create for Kelly and Adam's wedding. Kelly and I were able to meet at a local seashell store to hand select the shells for her bouquet. We even chose mini starfish to place on the wrap of her bouquet. This shell theme was carried throughout their wedding. Kelly and Adam were married on January 16th in a sunset wedding on the beach at Lori Wilson Park in Cocoa Beach, Florida.

Bouquet #4: James and Tracy were one of our United Kingdom couples. They were married at Sand Key Park in Clearwater Beach, Florida on March 29, 2010. Tracy loved the look of a cascading wedding bouquet. We used Black Magic Roses and White Mini Calla Lilies to create this look for her. James and Tracy were deeply in love and we were honored to share in their day.

Bouquet #5: Kym and Ron were married on June 12th in a beautiful sunset wedding. They chose Fort Desoto Park for their beach wedding. This location is located close to St. Pete Beach, Florida. Kym and I work closely to create her bouquet. We used Birds of Paradise, Pink Ginger, Tropical Amazon Roses, and Blue Dendrobium Orchids. The fun and warmth in this tropical bouquet reflected Kym's beautiful spirit.
