A stunning waterfront estate listing on South Shore Drive near Sarasota’s Ringling Museum—represented by Coldwell Banker Realty luxury real estate agent Carolyn Donnelly—was recently selected as the exclusive location for a high-profile bridal photo shoot. The property, which boasts 150 feet of direct Sarasota Bay frontage and a private beach lounge area, served as the elegant backdrop for Toni Federici Veils, one of the world’s most recognized wedding veil brands.
The shoot was captured by John Revisky, an internationally acclaimed photographer known for his work with Prada and Nike, and featured Federici’s latest veil designs. Revisky, whose photography has been featured in numerous local publications such as Sarasota Magazine, SRQ, and Sarasota Scene Magazine, brought his signature style that added a romantic and striking ambiance to the visuals.
Federici, a part-time Sarasota resident with over 35 years in the bridal industry, shared her inspiration for choosing the location: “I envision a young bride and her husband purchasing this house to live in. It’s timeless, elegant, and full of possibility.”
Her veils, often the final touch that seals a gown purchase, are celebrated globally for their artistry and craftsmanship. Federici’s daughter, Sophia Cusumano, elegantly served as the model for the shoot.
This 5,270 square-foot property was designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living. It previously rented for $17,000 per week a few years ago, and is now available for purchase at $4.29 million. With its private beach, breathtaking bay views, and views of the Ringling Bridge and downtown Sarasota skyline, it offers a rare opportunity to live in a home that embodies both luxury and imagination.
