A Classically Elegant Summer Wedding at TPC Sawgrass, Ponte Vedra Beach

Elegant white florals, lush greenery, and soft blue details set a classic scene for Tara and Jamie’s summer wedding at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach. Their celebration began with a traditional Catholic ceremony at St. Paul’s Catholic Church in Jacksonville Beach, a beautiful coastal parish known for its stunning architecture and serene atmosphere. It was the perfect place for the couple to exchange vows before moving to one of Northeast Florida’s most iconic wedding venues for their reception.

Tara and Jamie were referred to us by another one of our cherished couples. Since they live out of state, they were searching for a Jacksonville wedding planner who could provide trusted local guidance throughout the planning process. Our team at First Coast Weddings and Events stepped in to support them with venue coordination, vendor recommendations, and detailed design direction. We curated a group of experienced Northeast Florida wedding professionals who understood their vision and could create a cohesive, elegant event at TPC Sawgrass.

From floral selections to reception layout, each choice was made with intention to reflect the couple’s style. The result was a classic Ponte Vedra Beach wedding filled with personal touches, thoughtful design, and a seamless guest experience. Couples planning a destination wedding in Jacksonville or Ponte Vedra often rely on expert coordination to bring everything together, and Tara and Jamie’s celebration is a beautiful example of how a strong planning team can transform a vision into an unforgettable day.
