Luxury Summer Wedding At Lightner Museum

 The Nuckols wedding at The Lightner Museum was the definition of timeless luxury. The day was filled with elegant design, rich music, and personal touches that elevated the entire day. Set inside one of St. Augustine’s most iconic historic venues, every moment felt grand yet intimate, modern yet rooted in history. The day began with a romantic first look in the courtyard, surrounded by arched walkways and lush greenery that created the perfect setting for a quiet moment between the couple. The indoor ceremony followed, with soft lighting, stunning architecture, and an energy that felt reverent and warm. Throughout the evening, luxury met celebration. A live saxophone player set the tone during the reception, adding a sultry, elevated vibe to the space. Later in the night, guests were surprised with late-night snacks, crispy fries and artisan gelato, a fun, elevated twist on comfort food that kept the energy going strong. They had some of the most stunning details, postcards from their travels as their guestbook, thrifted broaches for the mens boutonnières, the bride even thrifted long sleeve shirts and embroidered her bridesmaids names onto them, and she even embroidered the inside of the grooms suit jacket with a sweet note. We took full advantage of the museum’s stunning interior and exterior for couples portraits. The vibe was classic, romantic, and refined. Every image felt cinematic, framed by warm light and timeless backdrops. The night ended with a private last dance, sparkler exit, and the couple walking off to their hotel. From start to finish, the Nuckols wedding was a seamless blend of style and heart, proof that the best weddings are equal parts beautiful and deeply personal.
