Just a preview...

I'm eager to share Amanda's wedding day with all of you! She sent me this photo just days after the wedding, so here is a little preview to get you excited to see the rest...

Ellen

I was beyond excited when I picked up the phone and heard Ellen's voice on the other end. It's been about a year since she got married, but she didn't forget about us. Between all the wedding planning and moving to Boston she finally got a minute to email me over some pictures. I'm so glad she did. This wedding is fun and elegant all wrapped into one! I also wanted to share what Ellen had to say about their wedding day!

"Our wedding was an absolute dream come true. It was so fun going wedding dress shopping with my mom at the Bride's shop. The staff was so friendly and helpful and they gave us all the special attention that a bride deserves. I had a hard time deciding on the dress, because there were several options I loved. When I finally chose, it was so fun re-designing the top half with Oksana. She did a phenomenal job on the alterations.  

My friend designed a custom vest and bow tie for our English bulldog Winston. The handmade touches at our wedding made it all our own; the custom bridemaid's skirts made from silk taffeta, the bow ties for all of our nephews created by my mother in law, the custom vest for our dog, all the plastic lanterns that my siblings slaved away making weeks before the wedding, and our invitations that were letter pressed. The modern, geometric, plastic lanterns that I brought back from Thailand, strung across the outside patio at Market Street Grill Cottonwood, were my favorite touch at our reception.

Our exit on rollerblades at the end of the night was another very memorable moment. Our photographer Heather, is an extremely talented and down to earth person.  We quickly felt close to her and felt the trust that should be present for such an important event.  She was so great to work with. We love and treasure all of our photos. I would highly recommend all of the vendors that we used."

Congrats to the both of you! Such a great couple and how cute is that dog???

Lauren Andersen

When Lauren walked through our doors with her darling friend Mercedes I knew she had great style and amazing taste. Lauren has a very classic and ageless style, and the dress she chose shows exactly that. Lauren fell in love with our in house design and wore it so well. She emailed me some pictures they took and will be sending me some professional ones soon, and I'll be sure to update this post with those. As you can tell she is a fan of the breathtaking train since 3 of the 4 pictures she sent me are of the back. Congratulations to the both of you!

The Lovely, Megan Gee

"Thank You SO MUCH for all of your help! I loved my dress so much. It was so perfect for me and was everything I wanted!" - Megan

Megan's wedding was timeless and classic. You won't be seeing anything in her pictures that she could potentially regret in 30 years. Her pronovias gown had that Audrey Hepburn/Jackie O style.. She had our seamstress add the half sleeve with a cuff and buttons to the bottom which really kept with the integrity of the gown. I absolutely love and adore Megan's wedding. She knew from the beginning what she was going for and she nailed it. Thanks for the pictures Megan and to Kate Benson Photography.
