The Beginning

Our Story

✦
Michael and Victoria at Kraft Azalea Gardens

We met in third grade and were friends for years before anything more happened. Our first date was at Big Bear Brewhouse in Coral Springs, and by junior year of high school we were officially together.

We went off to college together, and that's where we got our dog, Knox.

On December 11, 2025, Michael proposed at Kraft Azalea Garden in Winter Park. Victoria had no idea it was coming. She said yes, and now we're getting married!

Q & A

✦

The Day

What time should I arrive?

Please arrive at St. James Cathedral by 1:30 PM, about 30 minutes before the 2:00 PM ceremony, so you have time to park, find a seat, and settle in before we begin.

Are the ceremony and reception in the same place?

No. The ceremony is at St. James Cathedral in downtown Orlando, and the reception follows at Luxmore Grande Estate (1120 Orange Avenue, Winter Springs), about a 30-minute drive away. Guests will drive themselves, and there's parking at both locations.

What should I do between the ceremony and cocktail hour?

Cocktail hour begins at 4:30 PM at Luxmore, so after the ceremony there's time to make the drive, check into your hotel, or grab a coffee in Winter Park along the way. We'll see you on the patio!

What should I wear?

Our celebration is black tie: floor-length gowns and tuxedos (a dark formal suit works too). Cocktail hour is on the patio, and November evenings can get cool, so you may want a light wrap or jacket. And wear shoes you can dance in!

Is anything outdoors?

The ceremony is inside the cathedral. Cocktail hour will be on Luxmore's patio, weather permitting (it moves indoors if the weather doesn't cooperate), and dinner and dancing are inside the Grande Ballroom.

What will the weather be like?

Mid-November in Central Florida is usually lovely: days in the mid-to-upper 70s, with evenings dipping into the 60s.

What time does the celebration end?

We'll send off the night at 10:00 PM. Please plan your ride home accordingly!

Will there be an open bar?

Yes! Drinks are on us, with a full open bar at the reception. We just ask that you celebrate responsibly and plan a safe ride home.

Are kids welcome?

Yes! Children named on your invitation are warmly welcome, and a kids' meal will be available at the reception.

Can I take photos during the ceremony?

We'd love for you to be fully present during the ceremony, so we kindly ask that phones be put away. Our photographer will capture it all and we'll share the photos afterward. Then snap away at the reception!

I have a dietary restriction. What should I do?

No problem! Note any allergies or dietary needs when you RSVP (or email us at thelaceys2027@gmail.com), and we'll coordinate with our caterer.

Getting There & Staying

Where do I park?

At the cathedral: St. James has reserved spaces marked "St. James Cathedral Parking Only" in the MAA Robinson garage at 310 N. Orange Ave (enter from Robinson Street or State Lane), about a one-minute walk away. At Luxmore: on-site parking is available at the estate.

What's the nearest airport?

Orlando International Airport (MCO) is closest, about 20 minutes from the cathedral and 30 minutes from Luxmore.

Will there be a hotel room block?

We're working on it! Hotel details will be posted here as soon as they're set, so keep checking back.

How far is it from Disney & the theme parks?

Luxmore is about 45 minutes from Walt Disney World and about 35–40 minutes from Universal. Winter Park's Park Avenue is about 20 minutes away. See Things to Do for more ideas.

Is the venue accessible?

Yes, both the cathedral and Luxmore Grande Estate are wheelchair accessible. If you have any specific needs, let us know on your RSVP and we'll make sure you're taken care of.
