Mallory & Theo’s Romantic Wedding at The Club at the Strand

Mallory & Theo - The Club at the Strand

Naples, Florida is known for its pristine landscapes, lush greenery and year round sunshine making it the perfect destination for a dreamy wedding to remember. One of the more breathtaking venues to host your special day is The Club at the Strand. The venue features a beautiful courtyard, where the wedding ceremony is held, surrounded by tropical plants, majestic palms and a captivating water fountain.

We are thrilled to share with you the enchanting details of Mallory & Theo’s destination wedding. Their wedding day was a celebration of love, commitment and carefully planned surprises for one another. From the hand-rolled cigar bar to a private firework show for the bride, the day had a magical vibe that kept going throughout.

The couple chose to follow the tradition of not seeing each other until they walked down the aisle. This time-honored tradition encourages raw emotion adding an unforgettable layer to the wedding day. The anticipation was building as Theo eagerly awaited his bride and the moment he laid eyes on her he could not hold back his tears. Their family and friends succumbed to the overwhelming emotion as well, as they watched this beautiful moment unfold.

Under the warm golden sun of Southwest Florida, the couple exchanged their heartfelt vows. Their words echoed through the courtyard filled with sincerity and passion. They sealed their vows for one another with a kiss and walked into their new life together as one.

As the couples sunset photos came to an end the party was just beginning! After the couples first dance we were told to go back outside where we stood in the dark of night unsure of what might happen next. Suddenly, the night sky was lit up with fireworks, a carefully planned surprise by Theo for his wife. Mallory and the guests alike were in awe of the spectacle as many began to cheer. When the newlyweds returned to the reception they and their guests enjoyed hand rolled cigars on the terrace overlooking the courtyard where they said their vows earlier that day.

The night was filled with dancing and celebrating as everyone commemorated the newlyweds. A perfect ending to a perfect day!

We want to thank all the vendors that helped make this day so magical - The Club at the Strand, iDewEvents, Curate Entertainment and Beauty Marked FL
