sneak peek!

Margaret and Nathan are such a special couple. Love them! I wanted to share a sneak peek of their wedding day. It makes me smile to see the way they look at each other :) Stay tuned for more photos of the happy couple!

I'm so excited to share a few beautiful photos from Melissa and Wilson's wedding (shot by my dear friend and fab photographer Jennifer Hughes). I had so much fun working with and getting to know this completely lovely couple! I love that I talked to Wilson almost daily... I'm used to doing most of the planning with the bride. Not this time! Wilson was just as involved as Melissa and the three of us had a blast! Melissa and I had Wilson talking gobos, chiavaris and "chic" decor elements :) I feel very lucky to have gained two wonderful friends. I love "y'all!"

How do I begin to describe my love for Mindy, Eric and their beautiful wedding?! I'm finding myself with a serious case of writer's block as I begin this post. I'm filled with emotion as I reflect on Mindy and Eric, our planning journey (I miss it!) and their incredible day. Mindy and Eric share a love that is so genuine. For me it's another reminder of why I have the most wonderful job in the world. I'll never be able to share the full story in a simple blog post so I'll leave it to the photos. A very special thank you to Holland Photo Arts. There is something so special about Bill, Anne and their work. I feel so lucky to have the opportunity to work with them. Congratulations, Mindy and Eric! xoxo

If you're looking for a fresh and unique space with a city-chic feel, look no further! I attended an event, hosted by my fabulous friend Heidi with Room Service, on Tuesday night at Longview Gallery. Longview is an art gallery with raw event space... a completely blank canvas! The wheels in my head have been turning since the moment I walked in. Exposed concrete, brick walls, open space and an outdoor patio! What could be better?!

Special thanks to Paul, with Imijination Photo

I'm way behind on blogging. I can't believe that November is already here- the months are just flying by! This year has been so amazing- one filled with unforgettable weddings and completely lovely couples. I am so lucky! I could go on and on but this post is about Lauren, Sameer and their beyond fabulous wedding. Looking back at the pictures has me beaming. It was such an amazing day and I feel honored to have been a part of it. A special thank you to the staff at Hotel Monaco and to Jennifer Domenick of Love Life Images. Jennifer's work is incredible- she always blows me away! Congrats Lauren and Sam!! xoxo
