Good Looks for the Men in your Life

Men on your wedding day deserve to look just as good as the female members and we are the first to say that we love any formalwear that thinks outside the box, so these vintage male looks are right up our alley.
We are pretty sure that you will find them dapper as well.

Lake Weddings

June 13 | Pinterest Inspirations | by Cynthia

Since we have such a lovely weekend ahead of us, we thought that a little rest and relaxation might be in order and what better way to relax that by a sparkling lake with a slight breeze ruffling our summer clothes while we are sipping a yummy cocktail. Yes, we might be dreaming slightly, but with such a gorgeous weekend forecast, we have lake-side weddings on the horizon.
Here are some of our favorite Pinterest inspirations.

Choosing the Right Photographer - part 5

Apr 29 | Guest Blogger - Geno Photography | by Carrie Geno
____________________________________________________

Today is our last series in our Guest Blogger Series "Finding the Right Photographer for You," from Geno Photography. Today's posting is about "Investment." We have loved bringing you this series as we know that choosing the right vendor for any event is very important. Here are the other posts in this series:  Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4



Weddings are expensive events; between the gown, tuxes, the limo, the venues, food, drinks, decorations, and the many other pieces that go into creating your dream wedding day the expenses add up.  Deciding your budget can be a more difficult task than you'd imagined.  Inevitably there are some aspects of your wedding that require a larger portion of your budget than others.  Photography is one of these key elements of your wedding day well worth the investment.
 Why is photography worth such an investment?  You are already spending between $800-$5,000 on your wedding gown, $150+ on a tux, $1,500-$4,00 on food, $700+ on beverages, $200-$500 on flowers, venue rental, limo/party bus rental, decor, and so much more.  It adds up quickly.  So why invest in a quality photographer?  While the dress, the tux, flowers, decor, food, and the venue are all important pieces of your wedding day; they are fleeting.  Once your wedding is over, your beautiful gown will be preserved in a box and stored away.  The tux will go back to the rental store.  The food will be gone and the flowers will wilt.  What you will be left with forever are the images of your wedding day. 
It is crucial to hire a photographer who will capture your day in an amazing way.  Having the right person behind the camera to capture the people, the moments, and every detail of your day is so important.  You are marrying your soul mate and plan to be together for the rest of your lives.  The only thing that will last longer than your devotion to each other, are the photographs.  They will be the heirloom you pass on from generation to generation to share the story of your love and the memories of your wedding day.  You only have one opportunity for amazing wedding photos, be sure the right photographer is behind the camera.

Not only does a great wedding photographer take stunning images, they have the experience and knowledge of weddings that helps them capture the day to the fullest.  A great photographer can make even the most ordinary wedding something amazing.  They capture everything at its best.  A great wedding photographer knows how to light a church to capture beautiful formal portraits, how to play with natural light to add mood and drama to an image, and amplify the beauty and emotion of your day with the images they create.

In your search for a photographer, definitely start by finding photographers whose style fits your dreams.  Then meet with them, get to know them, and find one whose personality works well with yours.  Look at their services and products.  Finally, look at the investment, which is truly what photography is: an investment.

Wedding Details - Tablesettings

Jan 15 | Adding Color & Texture | by Cynthia
__________________________________________________________________________

We are suckers for details.  Whenever we research other blogs, our eyes are always drawn to the various details that make a particular photograph so interesting.  It could be a color, the texture of the linens, the way that eveything is mixed, yet matches, or it could be something as simple as the light streaming through a window.  As designers, we know that details are important because the sum of the parts is what your guests will take away in their memory bank when they recall your event.

We are particularly drawn to table settings.  It is one of the reasons I became involved in designing weddings - I wanted to make sure that the tables that your guests sit at are as beautiful as the rest of your event. Whether your style is contemporary, rustic, minimalistic, earthy, vintage, modern or a mixture of all, paying attention to all the elements that go into setting a beautiful table is very important for the final look. 

Here are some of our favorites.
