Wedding Tip - Rehersals Rarely Start on Time

I have been to many a wedding rehearsal and they rarely begin on time. When planning your schedule for the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner allow some extra time for late arrivals. If you have a limited amount of time at your church or venue make sure that you tell your friends and family an earlier time just in case. For weekday rehearsals, allow for time in traffic. So many of my brides apologize for the rehearsal beginning late - but it is just something that happens when you try to get so many different people together. It is not something to stress about if it happens. Laugh it off and enjoy having your friends and family close to you on such a special time.

Congratulations Mary and Brent

Mary and Brent are such an amazing couple. You can quickly see how happy they are together. Their wedding was filled with so many wonderful details. I loved how Brent even had a beautiful pearl on his cuff links to match Mary's dress. My favorite parts of the day included their personal vows. I watched as Mary practiced her vows upstairs before the ceremony and then later read them to Brent. We wish the couple a wonderful honeymoon!

Elements Conference and Event Centre

This week I had a chance to check out Elements Conference and Event Centre in Sharonville. They are a great new place to host your event. I absolutely love the beautiful colors and contemporary design. The vendors did a great job and made this photo shoot so much fun!

Happy First Anniversary to Michelle and Justin

It was great to get to see Michelle and Justin recently at Andrea's wedding (Justin's sister). I can't believe today marks their one year anniversary already! The photo above was taken when the couple saw each other for the first time. What an emotional moment. We wish you two all the best!

New Wedding Album, Lyndsey and Chris

One of my favorite parts of my job is designing coffee table books. They are beautiful and each one is wonderfully customized for each couple. We loved working with Lyndsey and Chris and their friends and family. They were great fun!

Engagement Slideshow, Lindsey and Mark

I wanted to share a few more photos from Lindsey and Mark's great engagement session. There are just so many wonderful photos it's going to be hard for them to to choose only a few.
