In all my glory!
My glamorous job as a wedding planner includes getting to bustle a lot of wedding gowns. And so far I've been able to figure them all out!Thanks to Andrea from The Observatory for documenting this!
I love: an amazing favor
I was hired by this couple almost solely to handle their wedding favors. The father of the bride painted over one hundred 8 x 10 canvases, a series of nine locations that were memorable to the bride and groom. Each
I love: This photo from The Observatory
I was looking though the DVD that Andrea from The Observatory sent to me from this wedding and I stumbled upon this gem. I don't know how I missed it before. Isn't it stunning?
I love: a choreographed dance
This couple blew their guests away when, after their first dance, they did the Thriller dance, a la the Michael Jackson video. Everyone went wild. It was so awesome! Thanks to Andrea from The Observatory for the photograph!
I love: a white, yellow and green bouquet
How fabulous is this bouquet from Growing Wild Floral Design? I am absolutely in love with it. Roses, peonies, orchids and dahlias for this gorgeous July bride. Thanks to Andrew Reilly for the photos!
I love: a lounge at a wedding
I really love having a lounge area at a wedding. Guests love an area to relax and be away from the dance floor from time to time. Thanks to Kurstin Roe for this photo of a lounge I did at
I love: a calla lilly bouquet
I am not usually a fan of bouquets made with regular calla lilies. But this bride's bouquet, made by Rance Goff, was stunning. The addition of the greenery and Dusty Miller really brought this bouquet to life. Thanks to Ralph
I love: a hot pink bouquet
I positively adore this bridesmaid bouquet from Growing Wild Floral Design. It is comprised of roses, calla lillies and coxcomb, all hot pink. A little greenery on the edge and it's perfection. Thanks to Kurstin Roe for the photo!
I love: Word Bubbles
The ceiling of the American Visionary Arts Museum lends itself to decorative ceiling installations. Nikia and Andre didn't want to do something that had been done before (although generally I contend that there are no new ideas, at all). I
I love: A guestbook contract
I was inspired by the wall-sized contract that Willy Wonka has the children sign when they enter the factory. Luckily Nikia and Andre were into my "guest book contract" idea too. It was designed and printed by the wonderful Two
I love: Half of a Wedding Cake
You may remember in Willy Wonka's office, towards the end of the movie, everything in it is cut in half.When we told Sweet Bakery (located in Baltimore, Maryland) that we wanted half of a wedding cake, with the insides exposed,
Tuesday Shoesday: Red Hot!
I confess. I don't know who makes the shoes. Valentino maybe? I know, I am a terrible Tuesday Shoesday blogger. But aren't they hot?! And they look awesome with the bridemaids' red parrot tulip bouquet.Photos from A Britton PhotographyFor more
I love: Willy Wonka Wedding invitations
I was so thrilled when Nikia and Andre decided to hire Two Brunettes to design their Willy Wonka wedding invitations. She embraced the concept and all our quirky requests without batting an eye.And I cannot thank Michele H. Fritz from
I love: my paper chandelier
I made this for a recent wedding at the American Visionary Arts Museum in Baltimore. It hung over the candy buffet at my "Willy Wonka" inspired wedding. I am totally in love with it. I am holding onto it, even
Glen Echo Park Carnival Wedding
Carrie and Jon first met me at the now-defunct Murky Coffee in Arlington in mid-January, 2009. They were planning a September, 2009 wedding for about 100 guests with a vintage amusement park feel. Carrie lived in Bethesda, but Jon lived
Obsessed: Moment Junkie Blog
This is a fantastic blog. It is all about sharing the moments of authentic emotion on the wedding day - captured by the photographer. It is unique because it is not about the centerpieces, the linen color, the way you
