Alfredo and Natonia’s BEAUTIFUL wedding reception!
Author: Arnoldo Offermann // Category: WeddingsOk, now I’ve been to Eaglebrooke MANY times, (How many? Click here for an idea!) but I have to say: this is the most beautiful set up I’ve seen at Eaglebrooke.
Then again, it should be. Natonia and Alfredo, with the help of Tarra Parnell, coordinator extraordinare, chose a dream team of Lakeland/Polk County vendors. Monica and I attended to music, lighting, and MCing. Jenny of KC Photography handled some exquisite shots. Tim and Patty Hicklin of Storybook Weddings took some cutting-edge video. Flowers by Marilyn did an amazing job with the linens and drapery and made Eaglebrooke look amazing. Beth and her staff did an amazing job, as always, offering top-notch service and food… and to top off an impeccable meal, a delicious cake was provided by Andrea of Sweetcakes!
The food… ohh man, you know I could go on for HOURS talking about how good it was. I’ll just say this: I had the salmon. The filet was easily a foot long, smothered in butter and light lemon juices, and fell apart the moment you looked at it hard enough. Delicious is an understatement here, folks!
Not only did it look beautiful, with our colorful uplighting and “Dance on the Clouds” feature, but it was a real fun party as you’ll see the video. (Lots of Latin music, too, helps being bilingual!) Three highlights are the soul train as the wedding party dance, Tarra’s son bustin’ out some MJ moves, and Natonia’s 90 year old grandfather moving it to some Earth, Wind, and Fire.
You just can’t rock any harder than that! Check out the photos and video below!

Hi Arnoldo,
The pictures and videos from Natonia’s wedding are wonderful. Everything is good except for the description of the vendor team. Natonia’s wedding coordinator was Ms. Marva Hills, of Fort Walton Beach, FL. Tarra Parnell was simply a bridesmaid in the wedding party and not Natonia’s wedding coordinator. I just want to make sure Ms. Hills is properly acknowledged for the hard work she did to pull the wedding together. I know Natonia would want to make sure each vendor was duly recognized. Thanks. Sincerely, Melody B. Frederick

Hi Melody! I know that Marva was the coordinator for the day of. I emailed her to get her permission to include her name on my blog and NEVER heard back from her.
However, it was Tarra that brought Natonia and Alfredo to my company, as well as the others chosen.
