Kobe and Jessica's Wedding in Daytona Beach, Florida

The story of our wedding

We got engaged on November 25th, 2023. We immediately made our Wedding Wire account and began planning. In 7 months, everything was ready to go! Our wedding was held at The Shores Resort and Spa in Daytona Beach Shores, Florida on June 22nd, 2024. We absolutely loved our venue. The price was comparable to many other beach hotels we looked at, but this one had the greatest value. Decorating was simple and easy because of how gorgeous the bones of this venue are. I worked closely with Donna Crane to establish the details of the day. My only recommendation would be to invest in a day-of coordinator to make sure everything from the morning to reception goes as smoothly as possible. Our florist, not on wedding wire, was The Flower Bar by SBY. She did two of my bridesmaid's florals for their weddings and she was an absolute dream to work with. Her floral vision and design were absolutely gorgeous and she did it for a fraction of the price of the other vendors I had looked into. Keeping the vibes up for the whole night was our DJ, Chris Cummings. He's also not on wedding wire but his company is called La'mour Weddings and Events. He did my brother's wedding and one of my friends. He is an incredible DJ and offers package deals for photos and videos. He and his team worked flawlessly throughout the day and night. Guests are continuing to rave about him! Our wedding was our dream come to due to these vendors and our amazing bridal party.
