Congrats Emily & Bryan!

Yesterday we did flowers and coordination for a super sweet couple, Emily & Bryan. I guess all my anti-rain thoughts worked, because I didn't see a drop! The air was a little crisp, but it really turned out to be a beautiful day!

Emily looked so glamorous! She wore a form fitting satin ivory gown and ivory lace shoes (I loved them!!) with a bird cage veil,, and her makeup was flawless! The bridesmaids wore goddess-like one-shouldered green gowns with floral embellishments. The reception has a slight beach theme, incorporating silver trays of sand for the escort cards and flip flops for the ladies tired dancing feet.

We had three types of centerpieces throughout the tent at CIC. Two varieties of tall centerpieces (one with all flowers and one with white branches and green orchids) and a smaller centerpiece with hydrangeas, roses and berries. The groom's mother provided some green shimmery fabric, which we wrapped around the base of each centerpiece for a splash of color.

It was a really beautiful day with a beautiful couple. Best wishes and many blessings to the new Mr. & Mrs.!

Congrats Adrienne & Brad!

Adrienne and Brad's wedding was absolutely stunning....and probably one of our most challenging to date! Between the heat, the rain, and last minute emergencies to handle, we were definitely on our toes! But after Mother Nature pounded us all weekend with extreme heat and tremendous thunderstorms, she gave Adrienne exactly what she wanted to end the day....a perfectly beautiful sunset over Lake Erie!

 Rehearsal Dinner @ Avery's Cafe

I had such a rewarding feeling after this wedding. We went up against so many challenges throughout the day, but the end result was amazing and totally worth it! It always saddens me though when the wedding is over and I know there won't be any more meetings! Adrienne and I worked together for over a year, and she was always such sweetheart to work with. I wish Adrienne & Brad all the happiness in the world, and I'm so blessed to have had the opportunity to work with them!

Congratulations Kim & Mike

Kim & Mike's wedding took place this past weekend in Sandusky at the Sunnybrook Trout Club. They booked all 10 rooms of the bed & breakfast for themselves and the wedding party to stay at, and held the ceremony and reception on the grounds as well.

The ceremony was held under the gazebo behind the bed & breakfast, and the reception in a large white tent just off to the side. Guests gathered in a semi-circle around the gazebo to watch Kim & Mike exchange their vows, and then everyone moved to the tent for cocktail hour, dinner and dancing.

This wedding was full of personal touches from the bride. The blue and green table runners were all hand made by the bride, as were the strawberry jam favors for the guests.

Best wishes to the happy newlyweds!

Congratulations Chanel & Mark

This was an elegant and gorgeous beach-themed affair at the Catawba Island Club in Port Clinton. It was such a beautiful setting right on the lake, and such an adorable and perfect young couple! Every detail from the ceremony to the reception was perfectly planned out, and the end result was absolutely stunning! Congratulations Chanel & Mark, and have a wonderful honeymoon in Jamaica! Best wishes for your new life together!
