—Elizabeth Klett, now Elizabeth Charles, and Patrick Charles were married on March 14, 2026, in a picturesque beachside ceremony at the St. Regis on Longboat Key, Florida.
The location held special significance for the bride and her family. Elizabeth’s parents, George and Joyce Klett
pictured below, were married at the same site on April 29, 2005, when it was formerly known as the Colony Beach & Tennis Resort. When the property was redeveloped into the St. Regis, George and Joyce chose to become residents there, honoring the place where their own marriage began.
Inspired by this enduring family connection, Elizabeth selected the setting for her own “fairytale” wedding, creating a meaningful continuation of a cherished tradition. Surrounded by loved ones and the beauty of the Gulf coast, the couple celebrated a joyful occasion that bridged generations.
