Happy Anniversary to ME!

Trevor and I were married 1 year ago today. Wow does time fly! We are celebrating by spending some time on the beach and in the hot sun of Mexico! I know you all are jealous. I will post some photos when we get back. Here are few photos to remember our day.

I hope you all have a wonderful New Year and 2009 is full of Love and Laughter!

Jen and Brian are MARRIED!!!

Jen and Brian were married on December 20th. Jen wore a Casablanca Bridal gown and we had a custom jacket made to go along with her dress. Her photos were done by the wonderful Nicole Ladonne.

I picked this one because these are always my favorite photos. It is just sheer bliss on their faces.

Congratulations Jen and Brian! I can't wait to hear all of the details about your day. We wish you nothing but love and happiness in your new married life!

Sneak Peak at the New Dessy Bridesmaids!

The new Dessy and After Six bridesmaids dresses are too cute! This season they added some new prints, and lots of new colors. If you want to see the rest of the dresses you can check them out at http://www.dessy.com/ , let me know what you think!

These are the After Six Dresses (The one in the center we have in a print and it is ADORABLE!)

The Knot Magazine is out!

Woo Hoo Finally the magazine came out with our wedding in it. There is also another one of our brides in there (Alicia) so Gina's Bridal got a double shout out! So cool. Our wonderful Photographer Nicole Ladonne put it up on her page. Check it out!

Natalie; What was your favorite part of your wedding?

One of my favorite memories was the last moment with my father before walking down the aisle: that split second where everything is going so quickly, you hear the music start, and you're about to walk down to your husband-to-be. It is nearly indescribable but when thinking about the overwhelming happiness I felt walking towards Brent, I still cry!

Sarah; What was your favorite part of your wedding?

There were so many great moments but one that stands out and that I actually have a picture for is the first dance. During our first dance I didn't know that our wedding party and family had all gotten up and were standing linking arms next to the dance floor swaying along. I didn't even notice until the end when I smoothly dipped my new husband for their and our entertainment. :-)

Cute Cute Cute Idea

As I was browsing Martha Stewart Weddings online today I found this really cute idea to personalize the gifts that you give your bridal party.

Customized Labels
To turn wedding-day accessories into lovely keepsakes for your bridal party, why not add customized labels bearing your wedding date, monogram, or some other personal note?

Oh Martha.....

A Thanksgiving Wedding

With today being the day before Thanksgiving things around the store have been pretty quiet so I thought I would put up some ideas for a Thanksgiving Themed wedding. The possibilities are really endless but the fall really does lend itself to deep rich colors and an over all feeling of warmth. So Happy Thanksgiving everyone, I hope you enjoy all the yummy things tomorrow brings!



This is a ring bearer pillow and some boutonniere's for the guys

These place cards are made out of wood! Leave it to Martha Stewart to think up that one. And I love the ideas of using fresh fruit in decor.

I think the wheat is amazing. I am going to do this someday when I host Thanksgiving dinner.




These are some favors that I thought were cute. The first is just a mason jar filled with something. The second is little sacks of trail mix.


Caramel Apples and this is a sack of apples with a recipe for an apple pie. Isn't that cute?!

This Dress is by Casablanca style 1881. I just love the Champagne on this dress. And the Bridesmaids dress is by Dessy Style 2745 in Antique Gold.

I thought this was amazing for an over all look. You all know how I love lighting!
