Teaser Tuesday

It's fun coordinating any wedding, but we have to say it's even more fun when we know the couple, so we couldn't wait for Katie and Matt's big day this past Saturday! After slipping into her beautiful lace strapless gown, Katie and her bridesmaids jumped in a limo and headed over to Talamore Country Club to meet Matt and the groomsmen for the first look. They were able to take advantage of the gorgeous grounds at the country club before heading over to United Methodist Church of Huntingdon Valley to say I do! Siena Strings played the processional and recessional songs which were all Beatles themed. After the ceremony, it was back to Talamore for the cocktail hour where guests got to mingle and fill out cute mad lib cards that the couple provided. The reception space was beautifully decorated with gold table runners and white floral centerpieces created by Willow and Thistle, along with mercury glass votives and slate table numbers that the bride rented from us. Chris from SEK Productions had all the guests dancing the whole night and guests only seemed to take breaks when getting their photo taken in the First Rate Photobooth. All of the fun was captured on film by Elijah from Well Spun Weddings and Jackie Bayne from Love Shack Photo, snapped away at all of the memorable moments from this fantastic wedding! Big thank you to Jackie for sending us so many teasers to choose from- we can't wait to share all of them!! -Caitlin

Saturday was an absolutely gorgeous day for a wedding. Kate was a stunning bride and you could feel all the love and happiness radiating from everyone around her! The bridesmaids were dressed in beautiful navy Jenny Yoo gowns and the groomsmen were very handsome in tan colored three piece suits with navy and green striped ties. Kate and Adam did their first look in the beautiful rose garden at Brandywine Park, followed by some bridal party pictures throughout the park. Their personalized ceremony took place at Westminster Presbyterian Church in Wilmington and their incredible tented reception was held on the bride's family's farm. The entire day was captured by David Campli Photography and CinemaCake. Gorgeous bouquets and florals were crated by Sweet Peas of Jennersville and were the perfect touch for this wedding. The delicious menu was created by Toscana Catering and after filling their bellies, guests headed to the dance floor for a night full of dancing thanks to All About Me. The bride and groom were surprised with and event painter and fireworks! It was a perfect day and I wish Kate and Adam all the best! -Becky

Laurie and Bob's Wedding

Laurie and Bob planned to hold their wedding at their home in West Chester and chose us to help them partial plan their spectacular backyard nuptials! We helped them turn their backyard from a field into a dream ceremony and reception space. Laurie and her ladies started their day with hair and makeup at the house while Bob and the guys got ready at the best man's house. The bridesmaids wore beautiful long gray gowns in differing styles and the groomsmen wore classic black tuxes. For a pop of color, purple bouquets were chosen for the ladies. Laurie's gown was stunning and it fit her like a glove and showed off her killer body! When they met for their reveal meeting, Bob waited patiently in the yard as his bride came down to meet him- they were so happy to see each other! They took photos together and then with their bridal party while were adding the finishing touches to the ceremony and reception space. The ceremony was held under a tent and was set up very simply. Dark wood chivaris were set up for guests to sit in and a white aisle runner was laid down and vases filled with hydrangea hung off of the aisleway chairs. Laurie was escorted down the aisle by her two sons and her daughter served as her Maid of Honor! Laurie's nephew officiated the ceremony, adding in a personal touch! Glitterfetti was thrown at the couple as they walked up the aisle was husband and wife for the first time. A delicious cocktail hour was set up in the space between the two tents and was lit perfectly with G40 string lights! Erin and Jason, from Synergetic, created the unique ceiling treatment for the reception tent and as the sun set, the lighting in the tent took over and wowed everyone! A few special touches were added to the reception, a screen with a slideshow of pictures was placed behind the bar and a fun faux chalkboard dinner menu was set in the front of the bar. Erin lent her tea set to the little girl's table adding a touch of whimsy to that table! The fabulous chandelier that was hung in the center of the tent belonged to the bride. Guests were treated to truffles as their favors and were able to grab a bag of candy from the candy buffet table! If you'd like to see a timelapse of the tent being set up, you can watch the video at the end of the post!

Congratulations Laurie and Bob!
