Julianna + Marino 9.17.10

Julianna and Marino are straight up adorable.  Their families are amazingly sweet and super fun... I knew this wedding was going to be a blast the second I met everyone.  Julie is one of the most organized brides I have ever met, which only made my life easier!  She and Marino really just wanted to make sure that their guests had a fabulous time.  The food was delicious, the music was fantastic, and the setup was gorgeous.  I didn't get a picture of the cake, but I will definitely post the professional pictures as soon as they are available because the cake was perfect and deserves to be posted.

Chris's Surprise Graduation Party! 8.7.10

This party has been in the "works" for about a year now! My amazing husband graduated Law School in May and took the Michigan BAR exam in July..my plan all along was to let him get through the studying and grueling experience of the BAR and then have this awesome surprise party with our friends and family. I don't know how this was pulled off..with over 50 guests traveling from all over, but I DID IT and it ROCKED.

SURPRISE!
The beautiful flowers from Liz at the Parsonage...

Jessica + Shane 9.4.10

Saturday was such an amazing day. Jessica and Shane are two people that belong together! I am so happy the day turned out so perfect...I have been working with Jessica's family planning their wedding for about a year and really have enjoyed being a part of this process, our meetings usually involved great food..so that was always a bonus! It's hard to explain, but the way the event went, it was flawless...the timing, the dramatic processional of the ceremony...the toasts and grand entrance, the way Addison Oaks came together (Dan and his team really make Addison Oaks a dream venue!), it was just perfect. It truly was a great team of vendors and a wedding full of love and togetherness.

The room starting to come together..

One of the most amazing cakes I have ever seen..

Ready to go..

Beautiful flowers from the Parsonage!
