PAMROC’S TRAVEL DIARY: A WEDDING VENUE STRAIGHT OUT OF A FAIRYTALE -CA’ D’ZAN

Today is all about the Ca’ d’Zan in Sarasota, Florida—the breathtaking waterfront mansion where our son and his beautiful bride were married just this past March.

Once the glamorous winter home of circus legends John and Mable Ringling, this Venetian Gothic-style estate offered a setting that was nothing short of magical. From the stunning views to the thoughtful touches, it was truly a day to remember.

**Their first look took place in the tower of the mansion—an emotional, unforgettable moment surrounded by timeless architecture and views of Sarasota Bay.

**The ceremony itself was made even more meaningful with Rocco serving as the officiant—a moment that brought the whole family together in love. (Yes, Rocco is available for your next wedding!)

And the details? Absolutely perfect:

**Guests were asked to put phones away and be present in the moment, making the ceremony even more intimate and heartfelt.

**Flavored water stations were offered upon arrival and departure to keep everyone cool.

**Handheld fans were provided for each guest (a must in Florida heat!).

**Bug spray was available—because no uninvited guests allowed!

**After the vows, champagne was served on the patio, toasting love with waterfront views.

**Then, we boarded a charming trolley to the Ringling Museum for the reception! (separate post)

If you’re dreaming of an elegant, unforgettable wedding venue with top-notch service and magical vibes, Ca’ d’Zan is an absolute dream.
