Congratulations, Lindsay & Brad!

Some things you know are just meant to be together: peanut butter and jelly, moonlight and magnolias, Lindsay and Brad. Their relationship seems to be effortless, and their love and respect for each other is clear to everyone who sees them (in fact, Lindsay told a story at her bridal shower about a girl who stopped them on the street one night after a concert and gushed about how cute they are together). It was an absolute pleasure to coordinate their wedding day and help them start their life together.

I was busily setting up the venue before the event, so thank goodness Travis and Laura of Fuse Photographic were there to capture my favorite wedding day moment: the bride and groom's first glimpse of each other. Lindsay couldn't help but tear up when she saw Brad, who I'd like to imagine was probably a bit overcome himself (although I'll never tell his manly groomsmen that).

Speaking of manly groomsmen, Brad seemed to have them in abundance, which was good because Lindsay's bridesmaids were too gorgeous to go unappreciated (granted, they're almost all married or about to be, so we know someone out there has their priorities straight!). 
Lindsay's best friend and man of honor was also by her side, rounding out this incredibly good looking bunch. 
Once everyone arrived at the venue (my favorite again, Mile High Station!) after the pictures, the party really got underway. Lindsay had the fabulous idea to have their first dance on the main floor while all their guests looked down from the mezzanine above - it gave them a little bit of privacy while still giving all their friends and family a chance to be a part of their moment.
Every element of this wedding just got better and better: there was amazing food by Catering By Design, prepared and served by the best catering crew I've ever worked with. There was delicious cake thanks to Jen of Cakes By Request (who outdid herself even with a broken ankle!). There was music and dancing until the very last possible second. And despite temporarily misplacing the marriage license, everything ended as well as could be: Lindsay and Brad happily tied the knot and their lives together.


Congratulations, you two!

Congratulations, Tami & Greg!

You remember reading here about Hitched in the Highlands don't you? The event organized by Happy Cakes in which some fantastic local vendors donated products and services worth over $25,000 for one lucky winning couple? Well, although the winners ran off with the prize a short 8 weeks ago, we just had the wedding last weekend ... and if I do say so myself (and on behalf of the other vendors), it was AWESOME.

The wedding was at my new favorite venue, Mile High Station, which boasts an incredible mix of industrial chic and contemporary elegance. The giant (I mean seriously GIANT) chandeliers make for great ambiance and fantastic pictures, such as those that the incredible photographers, Dave and Lynn of David Lynn Photography, captured again and again. Tami had rich flowers designed by Erin at Plum Sage, and looked old-Hollywood stunning in a Monique Lhullier gown generously donated by the glamorous ladies at Anna Bé and fit to perfection by DeeDee at The Wedding Seamstress. Greg is one seriously lucky dude.


Biscuits & Berries provided a bountiful buffet of some of Tami and Greg's favorite dishes, and they even helped Tami surprise Greg with a pre-wedding gift of his favorite meal: a Philly cheesesteak and a Stella Artois (so cute!) And what wedding would be complete without ending on a sweet note: Happy Cakes cupcakes, of course! 
Although all the vendors were fantastic and the wedding was perfect and went off without a hitch (no pun intended), the most important part, of course, is that Tami and Greg are now married!! They were so happy and in love all day, and we all send them our best wishes that those feelings continue every day of their new lives together. Congratulations, you two!

A picture from this guy is worth more like a million

I recently had the very great fortune to meet (and enjoy a thoroughly fabulous long lunch with) the internationally-adored photographer Andrew Clark. I was able to meet most of his team (whose incredible work is not even remotely undermined by the fact that they are all too cute for words), and learn more than I ever expected to about Andrew's photography career and the high-end event market. Andrew has shot weddings and events for some seriously big names, but his photographs will make you look like ten million bucks even if no one other than your neighbors know you.

Check out examples of his beautiful work at andrewclarkphotography.com, and also see his incredible detail photographs I got to use to update the Events Laureate website (!!!) gallery and homepage slideshow. Thanks, Andrew! I'm excited to work with Andrew on some upcoming events, so stay tuned for more incredible pictures!
