I Thee Wed Up Close

My very first wedding at Wiedemann Hill Mansion and what a great wedding it was! Sandra Reed Photography did such a great job capturing the day. The beautiful flowers came from Timothy's , in which Tim was able to pull off the look that Erin wanted, as well as Maribelle who provided the darling looking cake! Erin's vision was to carry the tiffany blue throughout her wedding, along with using a touch of crystals and feathers, remeniscent of the Victorian Era. I miss working with you Erin and Duncan! I hope you are enjoying true wedding bliss and aren't working too hard!

From November 8 - 10, wedding planners and professionals from around the country gathered for the annual Association of Bridal Consultants Business of Brides conference . In addition to the inspirational special guest speakers, there were breakout sessions and 10 minute topics where you could choose your topic of choice to sit in on. In addition to the education that was had by all who attended, fun luncheons and off-site events were planned. I thought I would share a few pics from the luncheons that took place! I hope you enjoy the pictures as much as I enjoyed taking them. Check out the centerpiece at this head table! I really like the simplicity of this arrangement as well as its versatility. I can see it in a formal, modern wedding or for an outdoor wedding. A very interesting way of displaying a cake! I thought this was a great centerpiece!...perfect for a winter wedding with the silver branches and crystals hanging from it. Here is a variation of the above branch and crystal lo...

Your guests talking is worth way more than having a wedding that you'll be paying on for years to come. Offer a late night snack bar for your guests, or combine your favors to serve more than one purpose.....a place card, favor and table decoration all in one, make your own centerpiece arrangements, have a prop offered at the door of your reception for your guests to wear, order a small ceremonial wedding cake and ask members from each family to bake something for a dessert station for the reception.
