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...

jillian and kevin’s wedding in june was tricky to coordinate because we had not one, but two surprises during the reception. first, during toasts, jillian’s sister and maid of honor, ashley, surprised the couple with a slideshow of photos of the two of them together as well as kid pics she had been collecting for...

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...

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...

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....

i have to preface this post by saying, if you didn’t already know, i’m obsessed with wedding photography. there were SO MANY AMAZING captures by the awesome local photographers at the weddings that i worked with this year. half of which might have even made it to wedding blogs if the photographers have them. so only...

in the first half of the year, i’ve worked with some wonderful djs, a few bands, and ceremony musicians. the most memorable of the entertainment acts had to be the performance by jerry bruno production’s kelvis at c.c. and kevin’s wedding in april. he livened up the afternoon brunch by performing several songs – one...
