Nothing has been easy during the pandemic but pulling off a wedding has proved particularly challenging for those seeking to exchange nuptials. That’s what Caitlin Rogers and Cody Atkinson found out as the pandemic forced the postponement of multiple wedding plans … until February 6, 2021.
The couple was married in a pandemic-friendly, open-air ceremony that Saturday at the White Room in St. Augustine. Rogers, a Belleview High and College of Central Florida graduate, is from Ocala, while Atkinson is a Jacksonville Beach native. The two met while attending the University of Florida, where they both graduated.
The ceremony was attended by about 100 family members and friends and included vows written by the bride and groom. The bride wore a flowing lace dress with a train by designer Ines Di Santo. There were three bridesmaids and three groomsmen, including the bride’s brother, Cole Rogers.
A reception was held at the White Room following the ceremony, featuring a seafood menu.
The couple lives in Jacksonville Beach. Mrs. Atkinson is a marketing director for an aesthetic device company, while Mr. Atkinson is a recruiter for a major IT search firm.
Unspoiled. Unmatched. Unforgettable.
