Waterfront Wedding | Andjela and Gehrig at the Hard Rock Hotel

Hard Rock's grotto

THE LOW-DOWN

Andjela and Gehrig held their romantic waterfront wedding at the Hard Rock Hotel’s secluded Grotto in early September. The happy couple traveled to Orlando from Clearwater, Florida for their late summer micro wedding. They celebrated with their dearest loved ones in a sweet, intimate ceremony and mini reception that our team was delighted to coordinate!

We thought Andjela and Gehrig’s dusty blue wedding color scheme was perfect for a waterfront wedding. Even their guests dressed to the theme! The couple accented the dusty blue with touches of white and black, giving their overall wedding aesthetic a timeless look.

Andjela wore a trendy lace wedding dress with a sheer corset top and off-the-shoulder straps while Gehrig wore classic black on black. We just adored their sweet first look on the Hard Rock’s iconic staircase! Other fun elements we enjoyed included their custom sand unity ceremony set and the bar napkins featuring their dog, Layla, on them. Such great ways to personalize such a memorable day!
