—If you’ve attended a wedding, corporate or charity event between Panama City and Pensacola within the last 30 years, chances are good you’ve heard the inimitable, resonating voice and spin doctoring of Celebrations by the Sea

founder Zoran Subotich. With more than 100 gigs yearly, his company has remained profitable despite the tightening economy, steadily employing more than 8 local subcontractors; caterers, a florist, a bakery, photographers, videographers, classical musicians.

Subotich joined forces with them and recognized the perfect fit early on. Subotich explained, “I enjoy making my client’s vision come to life, creating wedding memories and assisting my clients with elegant, fun entertainment.”

The company recently sponsored “A Legendary Giveaway,” the online reality TV show offering one lucky couple the ultimate wedding package including products from local businesses Emerald Grand, Destin Jewelers, Simply Elegant, Confections on the Coast, Salon Twist, Spa 98, Pure 7 Studios and Florals by the Sea.
