Timeless Wedding at the Ca d'Zan:

Sarasota Wedding Photographer

Megan and Eric are a simply stunning couple and their wedding day was a magical time filled with family and joy. There were so many amazing moments throughout the day celebrating the love of Megan and Eric with their family and friends. The gracious Bride was truly breathtaking in her elegant lace and beaded gown. Her cathedral veil floated behind her as she walked down the long aisle of the Ca d'Zan to meet her handsome groom. Every detail of this wedding was timeless, elegant and reminiscent of a time when the Ca d'Zan was home to the Ringling's in the roaring twenties. The elegant white rose bouquets, the stunning centerpieces and the vintage lanterns added to the elegance. As the night went on the couple with their guests danced under the stars facing Sarasota Bay with the feeling of another era similar to Great Gatsby.

We wanted their wedding photography collection to honor their love, their family and also reflect the timeless elegance of their special venue. The following is a little history quoted from the Ca d'Zan's website "The Ca d'Zan was the home of the John Ringling and his wife, a couple from humble mid-western origins, Ca’ d’Zan stands as a testament to the American Dream of the Roaring Twenties. Inspired by and designed in the Venetian Gothic style of the palazzos that ring the Venice canals, this dazzling palatial mansion perfectly captures the splendor and romance of the Italy the Ringling's so loved. To honor its owner, they named it Ca’ d’Zan, “House of John”, in the dialect of their beloved Venice."

There is so much amazing history of this mansion. The Ca D'Zan fell to such a state of disrepair it was the location of Miss Havisham's mansion in the 1996 Hollywood remake of Great Expectations. In 2002 the mansion underwent and extensive rehabilitation to bring it back to it's amazing glory. To learn more we welcome you to visit http://www.ringling.org/history-ca-dzan
