Sanaz & Tim ~ Persian Wedding!

We had the amazing pleasure of being contacted by Sanaz to coordinate her and Tim's wedding. In speaking with her, she was meticulous and very well spoken. Needless to say, those are classic traits of a wonderful attorney, which she definitely is! Aside from being meticulous and detailed she is just simply a doll to be around.

When we met face to face for the first time, Tim was also there. Very soft spoken , laid back and let Sanaz do most of the talking. Being that he is a dentist, one would think he'd do a lot of talking but we guess he leaves that up to his attorney wife! LOL Although both are different in their personalities, their love for each other is so very complimenting and fit together so perfectly.

The day of their wedding, was breathe taking in so many ways. Sanaz looked absolutely STUNNING! Tim, extremely handsome and we have the pictures to prove it!! Both the ceremony and reception were held at the beautiful Westin Colonnade in Coral Gables. This is an amazing location that exudes such class and elegance. The ceremony area was draped to frame a beautiful structure where their Persian ceremony was held. The altar was adorned with sweets, honey, candles and all the details of their beautiful culture.

The reception area looked amazing with all the guest tables in crinkled olive green satin linens and gold chivari chairs to contrast the deep rich color. The florals standing at over 4’ tall, looked exquisite in the rotunda ballroom. They were comprised of willow branches, pink cymbidium orchids & green amaranthus. Tall cylinder vases in different shapes and sizes surrounded the centerpiece with floating candles for a romantic touch.

Our favorite part of the night had to be the knife dance. This is a Persian tradition where the bridesmaids dance with a knife for the bride and/or groom. The bride & groom must then pay money to retrieve the knife, in order to cut their wedding cake.

Ceremony & Reception Venue: Westin Colonnade Coral Gables (Special Thanks to the always amazing team there: Jeffrey Chirinos, Ivette Navarro & Jose Photography: Munoz Photography (Thanks so sharing these awesome pictures), Florist: Events On A Budget, DJ/Lighting: Vision Dj's, Wedding Planners: Events On A Budget


Sanaz & Tim: We can’t tell you enough how honored we are to have been chosen to assist with such an amazing day in your lives! We wish you both an abundance of blessings, love and continued success!!
