the year so far: favorite transportation

my choice for favorite transportation was an easy pick: retro rider. tara and cj surprised their bridal party with it at their june wedding. yes, it’s less traditional and definitely not a formal, swanky, roll up looking VIP kind of transportation choice, but it looks super fun!

the retro rider is essentially a suped up school...

i LOVED the pink signature drinks. (well the look of them )

but what took the cake was the pink (vs brand,...

tysf: favorite decor

i am, of course, rather partial to jillian and kevin’s decor considering i helped jillian to plan it all and designed a lot of it by hand. buuuut i’ll disqualify myself for my “favorite in the year so far” running for the “favorite decor” category. i have some other faaaaaaavorite decor item specifics, but you’ll...

tysf: favorite touching moment

weddings are bound to produce really touching moments. i get at least a little choked up at every wedding i work – usually during the ceremony : ). the most special, touching moment from my year so far was when my bff codi’s brother, eric, did a speech about being honored to walk her down...

tysf: favorite ceremony site

stan hywet is hitting my favorites list again first for photo opp stop and now for ceremony site. the teahouses for a ceremony site are just stellar with the 500+ foot aisle, the fountain and the views. my third wedding of the year, jennifer and robert’s was there on may 30.

honorable mentions go to st....
