We created this beauty biz out of our love for weddings as well as our love for Glam! We have 5 amazing artists, who are licensed and insured as well as incredibly talented. We know how stressful wedding planning can be, so we wanted to create an amazing and stress-free bridal package including hair, makeup, touch up kits, lashes included and no additional fees for extensions installed etc.

Stop whatever you are doing and hire Brenna, from Bespoke Beauty Co IMMEDIATELY! Brenna provided top tier services, products, and talent for my bridesmaids and myself on my wedding day. She color matched me for Bellami Hair extensions through a picture because she lives 1500 miles away from me…I had to pick my jaw up from the ground because the extensions were perfectly matched. She calmed my nerves morning of and I felt incredibly beautiful because of her work. She provided touch ups all day long and even put my hair into a pony for me to comfortably enjoy dancing all night long. It was 90 degrees and very humid on our wedding day and my hair wasn’t a concern because she was on top of it—all day long! She went above and beyond for me and I am forever grateful.

I highly recommend Emma and Blue Door Flower Company! I went into wedding planning with very little knowledge about flowers. Emma immediately put me at ease with her kindness and patience. She took my scattered thoughts on color and style and transformed them into a cohesive vision. The terrarium centerpieces were a huge hit with our guests, and the floral arch framed our ceremony perfectly! Beyond her incredible artistry, Emma’s thoughtfulness and attention to detail made all the difference. Because of my chronic illness, I was worried about my ability to hold a traditional, larger bridal bouquet. Emma met my concern with such compassion and designed a beautiful, lightweight bouquet that I carried comfortably all day! Emma’s creativity and professionalism truly exceeded all expectations.

Vasari has a gem in their Banquet and Events Manager, Meghan McDowell. She was there for me from start to finish as I planned a surprise 60th Birthday Party for my sister who is battling cancer. Through tears and laughter, she helped me with ideas for a Hawaii themed event. I was connected with great vendors: Jenene created an amazing balloon arch, Sassy cakes with a Hawaiian themed cake, table settings that made the room so beautiful. And can we talk about the food? The Italian buffet was fantastic, and the themed hors-d’oeuvres cocktail hour was perfect and delicious. The staff was attentive and courteous to our guests. Overall, the Vasari event experience was by far, one of the best. I highly recommend them for your event!

Irene was absolutely AMAZING!! She met me at 6:15am on a Sunday morning to do mine and my stepdaughters hair and makeup. I showed her a few inspiration pics for us both but pretty much let her do what she felt best and she knocked it out of the park!! The makeup was perfect and flawless and my hair looked gorgeous. She took her time but was also on “schedule”. Besides her being beautiful, she is so very kind and fun!! My wedding morning was made better because of her. She then came back in the evening to style my hair again for our night reception. She touched up my makeup too but it stayed most of the day, even after spending 3 hours at the pool in FL that afternoon. I HIGHLY Recommend Invite Bride! Oh and we had never met in person until that morning as I live in Chicago and she’s in Florida. She was AMAZING!!

We cater to a variety of brides - from those who have it all under control and need help day-of to those who are looking to hand over all the details! We truly can't wait to be part of your planning journey, Let's plan a wedding!

Hiring Amber Jane Weddings was the BEST decision we made for our wedding weekend. From the beginning, Amber was kind, clear, and warm, helping us feel at ease leading up to the wedding. Amber hit the ground running when we brought her on board, she learned every detail about our wedding and flagged additional things we may want to think through based on her experience. She took off a huge burden by helping coordinate vendors leading up to the weekend, and when the weekend arrived she executed both our rehearsal dinner & wedding day seamlessly. I never once felt like Amber wasn't completely aware of every single detail. She understood our vision, thought through and confirmed every last minute open item, and all the while had the most incredible energy - efficient, effective, and stress-free even when things should maybe have been stressful. I would recommend Amber Jane Weddings over and over again to any future brides getting married in SWFL if they want someone with a calm, organized, proactive, and warm approach. We got to walk away with a PERFECT wedding weekend and also a new friend in Amber. Forever grateful! Xoxo the Ryans

Hi, I’m Joyce from Lakay Cakes Bakery. I have been in business over 9 years and have many years of baking experience. My company was started by making liquor infused desserts. Which branched out to other desserts as well as a catering company.

Lakay Cakes is literally THE BEST company for any of your desert needs. They did my wedding cake on Nov10th and not only did the cake turn out how we envisioned but it was also delicious. Even after a month later our guests talks about how nice the cake was and how tasty it was. I truly enjoyed it & the customer service was amazing. Very respectful, responsive & reliable. Everyone knows how busy a bride and groom can get and they made the cake process so easy for us. Thank you again!!
