Romantic Burgundy Urban Chic Downtown St Pete Wedding

Romantic Burgundy, industrial-chic Florida Wedding

From the owner Michael Scott Novilla, author of the hilarious new wedding and event planning book, It’s 5 AM Go Home:

I love this “Romantic Burgundy” industrial chic wedding ceremony, between the delightful couple Jared and Kaity, held here in downtown St. Petersburg, Florida at our historic venue NOVA 535. She (the building 535) turns 100 years old (in 2020) and ages, as well as true love, does. Like our room that was FULL of LOVE today! I’m honored that Kaity and her new hubby Jared trusted me and Team NOVA 535 for their most special of days. Love, hugs and a huge, life-long CONGRATULATIONS!!

Greenery Inspired Industrial Downtown St. Pete Wedding

From owner, Michael Scott Novilla:

“So many different meanings to green and greenery, being green and green thumbs. Well I’ve always loved trees, the color green is that of life, my favorite, and I love when others share my love of green. We operate as a green eco-friendly company, paperless, and working hard to eliminate all single use plastic; recently eliminating plastic straws completely. All our single use “plastic’ is now compostable, eco friendly. Green is life, showcased by our massive bamboos, standing tall and proud in our private brick courtyard. Green also means Go. Go forth newlyweds, to love each other and enjoy your new lives together. Congrats to Kyle and Mariah, such a lovely couple!!

Minimalist Industrial Downtown St. Pete Wedding

From owner, Michael Scott Novilla:

What I love about our NOVA clients, is their range of “wants and wishes”, as team member Melissa Nguyen always puts it. Some clients want all the “bells and whistles” others want to create a fun, relaxed vibe so they can enjoy precious time with their loved ones. What’s great about NOVA 535 is that we can, because of the forethought and extra efforts from the beginning, easily please our clients; no matter what end of the spectrum they desire. We really enjoyed creating the atmosphere that perfectly suited our lovely couple Alec and Natalie. Which always makes me smile, because that’s exactly why we built NOVA 535, so Natalie and Alec could have it how THEY wanted to, withOUT all the potential extra stress and headaches they may have found elsewhere. They told us what they wanted and team NOVA made it happen. Yea!! CONGRATS to our beautiful newlyweds bride Natalie and her hubby Alec!! (PS. I LOVE THIS PHOTO!!)
