Short on Cinco de Mayo plans this year? Not to worry — Intimate Weddings 30A has got you covered. Our new, May 5th package is perfect for the fun-loving, colorful bride. Read on to find out more, or to gather some inspiration for a Cinco de Mayo-themed event of your own!

VENUE

You can’t go wrong with an oceanfront wedding. Our May 5th package begins on the sugar-sand beaches of Carillon, Florida. Nestled in a private gate-guarded community, Carillon Beach has almost a mile of Gulf-front property with eight different unique walkovers. Named a Southern Living Magazine “Top Wedding Venue” in FL, Carillon is truly a coastal community with southern charm.

CEREMONY DESIGN

No festive event would be complete without bright, spring florals and lush greenery. For this Intimate Weddings package, we’re focusing on pinks, yellows, and blues for the wedding arbor. Your guests will be seated along the sand on lucite ‘ghost’ chairs decorated with green vines and soft red flowers.

RECEPTION

After the private ceremony, gather around the highboy tables covered in colorful linen, floral terrariums and festive vases and make a tequila toast to your union! Later, grab a cold brew from the Coastal Coffee cart, or a guava coconut cake shooter prepared by our friends at Bonne Vie Specialty. After the 45-minute reception featuring live, acoustic music, your guests will go home with gorgeous tile-inspired cookies from Sugar and Heart Bakery.

Have family at home who couldn’t make it? Not to worry — your May 5th wedding will be highly documented by the wonderful Rae Leytham Photography, Silver Shade Studios Videography, and available for live stream by Highlight Weddings and Events (so anyone can witness your union in realtime)! 

Whether you’re planning your own festivities or interested in joining ours, we hope our May 5th celebration inspires. It’s a truly Modern Way to Wed!
