Ashely & Owen - Kali Kate, Buda Texas

For those of you who have never been to Kali Kate, you really need to go check it out. It has so many little details built into the place, its takes a while to notice them all. Ashley and Owen were married there a few months ago, and I'm still working on getting more weddings posted. (excuses, excuses, I know - but I am trying!!)

They have such a cute love story and have known each other for most their lives. I helped them put together a slide show for their rehearsal dinner and got to see all their adorable pictures growing up. It was so awesome seeing all their friends and family just supporting them completely.

Here are their
lovely pictures from their wedding day courtesy of Tyler Schmitt Photography. As usual, they did not disappoint.








The gorgeous flowers were done by the ever so wonderful:


Petal Pushers - we love us some Stacey!

October 11, 2008 - Monroe, Louisiana

Well kids, I'm back from Monroe, Louisiana and met some really great people. Last year Jessica Claire held a contest for free photography from her including all travel fees for a deserving couple. Jessica is California based photographer that is always on the go and shooting so many locations. I'm often envious of all her travels. She's well known throughout the wedding community and is truly an artist and someone to aspire to be.

The winners: Anna & Chris! They were nominated by Anna's family and that's how this all began. Elysium Productions (also based out of Orange County) and I decided to sweeten the pot and include our services as well. I can't wait to see the finished product from the both of them, but here's a teaser from Jessica's blog. I really enjoyed meeting all the families and Anna & Chris's wedding was so much fun! I know people say that a lot about weddings, but this one was one for the books!

Also, thank you to Crystal Goss out of Arkansas for joining the crew, too!

Tami & Ross - Lakeway Resort & Spa


Lakeway Resort & Spa

Tami and her mom were so much fun to work with. They are the "O" in organized. I really loved that it makes my job easier to where I can focus on the fun stuff like decor! I really enjoyed assisting in the event design of this wedding. From the unique style of the chair ties to the really cool altar.

Much kudos to my fabulous wedding team:

Pam Hults - a' La Vie Photography
Petal Pushers
Michelle's Patisserie
Reunion Band
Alexia Gavela Bridal












These chair ties are from BBJ Linen. They are the "apple" color. You can use chair ties as table runners as well. We created a unique way to use the ties because bows would simply not work. This was defintely a labor love but it really was worth it. Thanks to Angela on the Lucie's team for doing such a great job!














Can you tell that I absolutely adore Petal Pushers? I loved the simple clean look of the curly willow with white dendrobium orchids. It really filled up the Vistas Ballroom at Lakeway Resort.


















Specialty cupcakes from WildWood Art Cafe








Speaking of these chair ties... Apparently its tradition in this family to wear chair ties on your heads at the weddings. I was not privy to this info before hand, so this made a good laugh!

I have a crush on Stacy Cross...

Meredith & Chris - September 20, 2008: Vintage Villas, Austin

Its been less than a week and Stacy Cross Photography has already sent me a slide show of Meredith & Chris's wedding. WOW! Its even prettier than I remember! She really captured Meredith & Chris's love and spirit. I big huge fat gigantic puffy heart Stacy & Stan Cross! Here are some sneak peaks! I can't wait to see what Elite Video comes up with! Kevin with FC Media had the tunes that kept everyone dancin'...

Also - thanks to Petal Pushers as always for creating jaw dropping gorgeous-ness!

We thought it would be really romantic if we did the first dances under the gazebo. We surprised the couple with a beautiful floral chandelier for that extra added touch.


Pretty pretty cake from Michelle's Patisserie. This was a cake canopy we created for that "wow" factor. This was also followed by Amy's Ice Creams.


These candelabras are always at Smith Family Chapel at Riverbend Church and Petal Pushers incorporated them in their design.

Nature's Point - Lago Vista, Texas

What you say? Its the middle of September and I'm just now posting a March wedding? I have no other reason than to tell you its been a wild and crazy wedding season this year and so I've neglected my little bloggie. But, I thought of you from time to time...

We had some fun times planning and some close calls of rain on their wedding day but it all worked out. I have a bonus treat for y'all! A snippet of their video from their wedding from the Rewrites! Check out the pictures and videos below.
