This might be one of the most creatively executed theme weddings I’ve ever seen. Especially considering all the baseball-inspired details were created by the couple and their friends. I love that their shared love for baseball made a major appearance throughout their big day and in such fun ways too. The baseball quotes, jersey numbers for tables, “will-call tickets” for escort cards are all genius ways to bring something totally unexpected into wedding decor. Captured Photography by Jenny gets to shoot the most fun occasions and this Palm Beach celebration is no exception! Click here to see the full gallery!

From the Bride… We knew when we got engaged, we wanted to have a FUN and UNIQUE wedding! The second we found the cufflinks, we knew we wanted to have a baseball themed wedding. We actually play on a softball team together and have a common love for the Yankees, so we knew it was just US.
We were on a budget, so we had to be creative. But it was fun to come up with ideas. With help from our friends and family, we were able to bring to life our own personal ballpark! One of my good friends and bridesmaid, Shawna, helped us design all the signage. It was so special for us to have our own personalized programs, invites, and little signs throughout the reception. We even had a monogram with our new last name in it (Zapata). My uncle helped put together all of the girl’s Tulip bouquets, our church floral arrangements, and the boy’s boutonnieres. Simply Flowers made my bouquet of Peonies, Tulips, and Hydrangeas and the Baby’s Breath centerpieces in the reception. We made tickets as place cards and tied them to a box of crackerjacks (yum). Each of the tables were named after a Yankee legend. And instead of having our guests sign a guest book we had them sign two Louisville sluggers. Tony bought each of his guys a fitted MLB hat of their favorite team as a gift (and this all came in a fun prop during our photos). We have five dogs and love them like crazy. So, in lieu of favors, we donated money to a local Animal Rescue. Our cake/cupcakes from Johnson’s Custom Cakes had five different varieties for our guests to choose from.
From the crackerjack boxes, to having miniature sugar figurines of our dogs on our cake, each detail was something that reflected who we are and our relationship! The dance floor was never empty and our wedding really felt more like a PARTY than a reception and we wouldn’t have had it any other way! We truly had the time of our lives!

Love her converses! I had custom converses made for my wedding and I still wear them on the regular.
Very cool wedding...wonderful photos. Love the last picture of them kissing
OK love love her shoes, totally makes me want to go shoe shopping like NOW. I'm not sure about her necklace.... she might regret that one later. The cracker jack boxes seems familiar :) This makes me want to have another wedding ? Can I do that lol
LOVE the baseball theme!!!! Very cool and fun.
wow it's so exciting to see all the hard work that went into our wedding pay off! My family and friends and vendors went above and beyond to make it all happen! So excited to be able to share it with others! Thanks SMP and thanks to our awesome photographer Jenny and Shelly for capturing all of it!
These are awesome photos. Way to put something you love in to your wedding. It is unique. That's how weddings should be!
Thanks SMP for featuring Laura and Tony's day :) I know they did a ton of work for their day! We were honored to be a part of it :)
Seriously. I am in love with these photographs. I love how they are clean, creative, and just beautiful! What a fun idea and wedding! You guys looked great. Go Yankees!
How cute is this couple! I think they were very creative too!
Even before reading the blog I could tell just by the photos that this wedding was completely the couple. I think there is no better way of planning a wedding than truly making it about the couple and their love story, not just the brides dream wedding, or the popular style, but what really captures the couples personality and unique love story. They did a great job!
This wedding is AWESOME! I love everything Captured Photography does!
