College sweethearts Jen and Chris are married! As Tampa transplants, they knew that they wanted to host their wedding day in a city that has been the location of their new life together. They chose the beautiful Armature Works for their Tampa wedding day – and it couldn’t have been any more breathtaking. With a rooftop wedding overlooking the city and the water, and a gorgeous reception with their favorite things – Jen and Chris planned a romantic celebration for themselves and their loved ones. 

Their Love Story

Jen and Chris are college sweethearts! While studying in Kentucky, they became fast friends – and soon established their relationship. After graduation, they decided to make the move to become Florida residents and settled in nicely to Tampa. They’ve spent the last year or so planning their dream wedding at Armature Works and I can’t wait for you to see it all! I absolutely adore these two and photographing their wedding day was so special. PS. You can read more about their engagement story here!

Tampa Rooftop Wedding Ceremony

There is nothing dreamier than a rooftop wedding day – especially in a place like Tampa FL where you’ve got gorgeous views all around you! Jen and Chris decided to host their wedding ceremony on the roof of Armature Works. Under the tent dotted with Edison bulbs, Jen and Chris met to exchange their vows in front of a gorgeous white floral display featuring white roses! It was a simple but beautiful centerpiece for their special moment. 

Armature Works Wedding Reception with Personality

I love that Jen and Chris created a luxurious wedding day that was chic but also so full of them and their personalities! They really leaned into what was important to them – especially around their reception. Perhaps my favorite touch was that they had pizza delivered as a late night snack for their guests and personalized the boxes with their names! How fun is that?! They also made sure that their dog, Jeter, was a part of their wedding day – even if he couldn’t be on site. They had the cutest personalized napkins featuring his face and he showed up on their cake design too! Jen and Chris are proof that a chic and stylish wedding day can still be full of what matters most to you both! 

Congratulations, Jen and Chris! I’m so happy for you and thrilled that I could celebrate with you. I wish you a long and happy marriage together!!
