Wedding Favorites - Angie & Lauren

Here is a quick blast from the past. One of our favorite weddings we have been a part of was Angie & Lauren's. They were married in February of 2007 and were such a great couple to work with! We came in as the day-of coordinators and ended up feeling like we had known them for the entire planning process. The joy they got from their wedding and each other was contagious and we are happy to hear that they now have an adorable 2 year-old son - congratulations Angie & Lauren!

She See's You!

If you read the post below, you will see that I just went to an amazing wedding up in Washington state this past weekend. One of the best things about it (besides the bride and groom, of course) was the photographer!

Her name is Jen from Jenny GG Photography and she is AMAZING! Her photos are so pretty and unique....and she is a ton of fun! She was a blast to work with and has an amazing eye for capturing just the right moment.

She is based out of the northwest, but is from San Diego and, I'm pretty sure would love having a chance to visit her hometown for a wedding down here. Seriously, check out her website!

Beautiful Bride, Beautiful Setting...Beautiful Wedding

I just got back from one of my best friend's wedding up in Washington and it was so much fun! Jenni is the perfect bride - creative, organized, and really into the whole wedding planning process, so I was not surprised to see amazing, personalized details throughout the entire event.

One of my favorite 'little details' was her choice to use bouquet 'charms' for herself and the bridesmaids. She had a beautiful antique picture frame-charm with a picture of her grandmother on her wedding day on her bouquet (attached to the ribbon surrounding the stems of the flowers) and a really pretty square charm with each bridesmaid's initial on it for their bouquets....something similar to this (although I have to say, Jenni's charms were even prettier):

I always think it is the small 'extra's that really pull a wedding or event together and make it memorable, and her's definately was! I'll post some pictures soon!

BTW - I want to mention her wedding coordinator, Bobbi Roth Wedding Design. She did a fabulous job and was really lovely and personable to the entire wedding party and the guests. I would highly recommend using her if you plan on getting married anywhere in the Northwest!

Love This!

In preparation for creating our blog, I wanted to see what else was out there. I came across this fabulous site, Style Me Pretty. They showcase amazing events, photographers, and anything wedding-related that is beautiful. They are launching a new social network called the Style Circle and, as part of the site, they have a really easy-to-use Inspiration Board Builder! Here is one that they have highlighted, designed by Style Circle member Carly. Beautiful!
