Teaser Tuesday

Kate and Anthony's wedding was EPIC!! The girls began their day being pampered at the Omni at Independence Mall with their hair done by Dottie and makeup by Cheekadee. Kate was more than excited to put her gown on and get across the street to meet her soon-to-be husband at their first look at the park! John Shetron was able to capture some gorgeous photos before the gang hopped on a trolley by Philly Trolley Works and prepared for their Greek Orthodox ceremony at Annunciation Church in Elkins Park. After the ceremony, we trekked back into the city for an incredible reception by Cescaphe at The Curtis Center. The florals by Petals Lane were gorgeous- Kate SCREAMED when she walked into the space- it was the best reaction I've ever experienced. Their wedding cake was custom designed to match the bridal gown, but the real star of the night was Anthony's Groom's Cake, created by Truly Custom Cakery! It featured all of the groom's favorite things- Chewbacca in a Flyers jersey, waving a Greek flag, with a VW hubcap and an iphone, all on top of a giant cheeseburger! And inside, the chocolate cake was filled buttercream, Kit-Kats and Butterfingers-YUM! Their band, EastSide Mix was really great- the guests danced their hearts out and all of it was captured on film by Lou from Tweed Weddings! This wedding was an awesome one that we were honored to be a part of!!
Our second wedding on Saturday was Amanda and Carl's at Winterthur! The forecast for their outdoor ceremony was looking gloomy and filled with rain, but we lucked out and were able to have their beautiful and traditional Zoroastrian ceremony outdoors. Amanda looked stunning in her white lace sari and she had her bridesmaids match her by wearing all white as well. Guests enjoyed a delicious cocktail hour that was held by the reflecting pool before heading down to the Visitor's Center for dinner and dancing. The room looked amazing- it was up lit in pink by Synergetic Sound and Lighting. Flowers by Yukie did a great job with the centerpieces which were glowing with lots of candlelight. Synergetic Sounds did a great job getting the guests on the dance floor and Jennifer Childress Photography was on hand to capture all of the fun! Thank you for sending these incredible images, Jenn, we can't wait to see the rest!!

Must Have Monday

Good morning, everyone! I hope you all had a fantastic weekend. Today, we are talking about something sent to us by a future bride, and we've actually had a few brides this summer use them.They are heel stoppers! One of those things that make us all go "I wish I would've thought of this!". Basically, they are flexible pieces of plastic that go on the tip of heel to prevent your heels from sinking in the grass. I've been to a few weddings (and worked a few) where it has poured days before the event, leaving the grass so muddy. Then your heels get mud, dirt, pieces of grass all over the heel, ruining it. Not anymore! I will be investing in these! When googling them, they sell them in all different colors and are very inexpensive. Here's one website I found.

Happy Monday!

Nicole & Josh's Wedding

Nicole and Josh's special day took place at the stunning Greystone Hall. Now...I may be biased since that's where I was married, but in all honestly, it's the most spectacular venue that West Chester has to offer! The weather was PERFECT for the outdoor ceremony, which was directed by my favorite officiant, Andy Mahaney. It was nice to work with Feastivities Catering once again! Bernice and staff always do a great job and provide superb service. The elegant wedding cake by Cake Art Studio was enjoyed by all. The florals in all shades of purple were created by Flowers by Yukie. From the weather to the small decorative touches, the day was beautiful! My own wedding photographer, John Shetron Photography did another great job on this wedding! He's amazing and so calming to be around on your wedding day. Be sure to check out some of his incredible photos below, as well as the invitations and coordinated stationery we made for them! Everything came together so nicely for such a deserving couple.

Wishing you a lifetime of happiness, Nicole and Josh!
