We’ve seen a lot of fun weddings with personalized details, but Marzetta Robinson (33) and Brian Share (31) took it bit farther with an eye-catching purple and green color scheme and matching belly dancer! “We surprised our guests with a belly dance performance by Yana Maxwell, winner of the 2014 Belly dancer of the World,” says Marzetta. “She got both Brian and me up to dance with her!” The couple had an outdoor tented ceremony, indoor cocktail hour and reception on-site at the Hyyatt Regency Grand Cypress in Orlando, Florida, while Steven Miller Photography captured every moment of the day. With the help of Just Marry! and Lee Forrest Design, Marzetta and Brian followed their “modern and fun” theme and filled the day with bright royal purple and green floral arrangements that included calla lilies, hydrangeas, peonies and delphiniums. One of our favorite details, was how the couple kept their guests in mind even before the wedding began. From the bride: “Brian and I assembled welcome bags for each guest staying at the Hyatt. We anticipated our guests would make a vacation out of our wedding weekend, so we were prepared to show them a good time!”

Wanting a modern and non-traditional wedding, the couple filled their ceremony with contemporary music. “Brian and the groomsmen walked out to ‘1,2,3,4’ by the Plain White T's. The bridesmaids and bridesman walked to ‘Wild Horses’ by the Rolling Stones," says Marzetta. "Then I walked down the aisle to ‘Groovy Kind of Love’ by Phil Collins with both of my parents.”
Marzetta walked down the aisle with an eye-catching bouquet arranged by Lee Forest Design. It was composed of purple calla lilies, green hydrangea, purple peonies, green orchids, green hypericum berries and purple delphiniums.
Marzetta and Brian decorated their white tented ceremony with rows of white folding chairs as arrangements of purple peonies, green hydrangea and purple delphiniums were placed along the aisle.

Marzetta’s three bridesmaids wore floor-length purple Bill Levkoff dresses with ruch detailing, spaghetti straps and a sweetheart neckline.
The couple placed each escort card in a plastic stand that would double as a frame for their guests' photo booth pictures.
The couple decorated their reception with silver chiavari chairs, silver chargers, silver linens accented with purple napkins, bold purple table numbers and low floral centerpieces in purple and green hues.
As Brian is an Ohio State the couple chose a fun geometric Ohio State-inspired groom’s cake and “Hang on Sloopy Sangria” as their signature drink.

For future couples, Marzetta shares: “Everyone always tells you that your wedding day flies by, and they are right! Don't forget to breath and take it all in. Some things may not go as planned, but don't stress about it. Chances are that none of your guests even noticed!”
