Wedding Wednesday!

Today I am sharing one of our sweet tables we designed for a local bridal show.
Our theme was "Sweet Love" and it was all about the sugar! From the cupcakes, to the candy buffet, to the favors, we had so much sugar! We even had cake pops in our flowers!

Monday Trends

More of an insight today, but still a current trend!

Why you should do a "first look" before your ceremony-

Given the schedule of events on your wedding day, there is generally no time for the couple to connect and enjoy each other until well into the evening hours, if at all. The ceremony happens, quick photos together, add in bridal party and family, grand entrance, and the night is well under way. Before you know it, its all over.

If you do a first look, its a scheduled time to have some privacy, just the two of you. And a big concern is "the groom won't be emotional when I walk down the aisle." YES HE WILL!!! It is STILL a VERY emotional moment.
During your first look, he is thinking "wow, she looks amazing, I am the luckiest man alive"
During the ceremony, he is overwhelmed with emotions as you walk towards him in front of your loved ones and hear the music and look into each others eyes.
You don't miss out on anything by doing a first look. In fact, you gain amazing photos you would not normally get, taken from a far by your photographer as you reveal yourselves to each other.

They make for amazing shots, and you will NOT regret it!!
For all you couples not wanting to do it because you feel it would ruin the moment when you are at the altar, reconsider, if you need testimonials from couples that are glad they did it,email me, I have them!!

Due to the state of the economy, Vegas weddings saw a surge in Fall of 2010 through the present day. They have always been extremely popular, but when money is tight and you need a getaway, why not combine the wedding with a trip?
Everything from a drive up window, Elvis performing your ceremony, to an intimate chapel is available to you almost 24 hours a day.
And while the tacky places are there, don't forget about the absolutely amazing views from Mt Charleston, the Valley Of Fire Canyons, or the stunning fountains of Bellagio.




Elvis and Priscilla started it all!
