It's Been a long time.......

Since I have blogged...awful, I know.

BUT I have a great excuse....I had a baby, forgive me?????

It's been a CRAZY few months. I welcomed son #2 Ashton David into the world December 14th 2010. I took (roughly) 4 months off to "Be a Mom" and spend time with the new baby and adapting to life with two kids...then POOF! Wedding season (Spring hit) and back to work FULL FORCE!

We were slammed pretty much April through July - barely had time to come up for air. So my sincerest apologies for being "out of touch"! It was crazy....

But alas here I am, back to the blogging world and hapy to share pictures and stories of all that has happened over the past 6 or so months.

Industry Fun....I love my job!

Most recently one of my "Colleagues" and FABULOUS wedding & event designers, Lisa Konecny of E-Events together with Abby Liga (Photographer extroidainaire) of Liga Photography hosted a super fun event at their studio (and near by parking lot) that coupled food, frosty beverages (both from the keg and in a bottle) and KICK BALL....yeah!!!!

It was such a fun night! Although I obvisously couldn't part take in either the keg stands or the kick ball, I made one heck of a cheerleader :) ...... I'll get'em next year!

Anyhow...the "best of the best" were there. You name it....photographers, videographers, wedding planners (playing kick ball.....fun thought huh?) it was a blast. And believe it or not, some of them actually had athletic abilities (shout out to my girl Tracy Marini)!

Wedding planners just wanna have fun too!

The big joke of the evening was "Where is the Kickball????

Sonya ate it...." hahahahaha! Well Lisa was at my desfese....

she actually ate the kick ball! I'm just pregnant :)

Jennifer Rosenthal (Shingle Creek), Karrie Castello (Uniquely Yours Events), Amy Morelli (2U collection), Tracy Marnini (Eventfully Yours)and myself....cheering on the teams!

Somaiya & "D" - Coming Soon!!!!!!

One of my mostest favoritest clients of 2009 - Ms. Somaiya (now Mrs.)! Such a fun, sweet bride with SO much...um what's that word......SPUNK! She's a girl who knows what she wants, and will work until she gets it!

She had SUCH an amazing vision for her wedding day, a unique palette of colors, mixing golds, silver, pinks....creating a vintage yet modern a.k.a "Mo-vage" setting for her ultra formal and fabulolus wedding.

We CAN'T wait to post pics.....

Stay tuned for the photos, provided by the wonderful Cory Callahan...coming soon!

Here is a sneek peek at our super cute couple!

Donna & Mike | October 18th | Casa Feliz

Perfect Day Perfect Couple!

One of the most perfect wedding of the Season.....this was a fabulous day! They had the perfect location, perfect weather and they were surrounded by fabulous family and friends (New Yorkers I might add) that had a huge amount of love and happiness for this adorable couple.

Donna pulled together an amazing wedding...considering how busy of a woman she is. She travels around the world for weeks at a time but found the time to make it ALL happen.

Her team of vendors included: Melissa of Casa Feliz, and her wonderful staff at Arthurs Catering; Lee Forrest Design Floral & decor; Les and Wendy of Soundwave Entertainment had the dancefloor PACKED all night! Scoobie and Lisa of Scoobies Photographic Images provided these wonderful photos (thanks!); Mike and Dawn Iacovino of Tin Can Wedding Stories documented the evening on video;

Robyn & Brian!

We kicked off October with the sweetest couple! Robyn & Brian got married on October 10th at the beautiful Knowles Chapel in Winter Park - with a swanky / modern reception at the City Arts Factory Downtown!

A beautiful and perfect day (with about 5 seconds of random rain....just as we were moving her around the side of the church????) BUT umbrella in hand, we got her to that front door and down the aisle she went to one of the most touching ceremonies I've seen yet.

Her powerhouse of vendors included: Amanda Whittle and the Arthurs Catering Team; The super fun and motivating DJ Marco Polo with Tagas Events; Beautiful Floral by In Bloom Florist; Cake - the bride and her Aunt created an AMAZING cake! I can't wait to post pics!

Robyn did an amazing job pulling her wedding details together - all while studying and preparing to take the FLORIDA BAR Exam...she took it weeks before her wedding AND PASSED! Whooo Hoooo, congrats to Robyn!

We were only able to snatch a few of their engagement photos and Wedding "Teasers" from the photographer - more coming soon!

Sweet Southern Love! Kindra & Kris

Leu Gardens

Just look at the pictures....need I say more?????

Adorable, right? They were SUCH a fun / sweet couple to work with, and we were so honored to be a part of their day!

As for the planning....we will take NO credit here - the bride was quite the little planner and what AMAZING taste she has. When we met and she told me about her "Vision", and I quickly realized she was a girl after my own heart - a true southern belle and it showed in the details of her wedding.

We were happy to be there to execute yet another flawless day along with their powerhouse of vendors including:
Concept Photography (amazing....); Tagas Entertainment (DJ Marco....SO fun)!; Ana Cakes; Lee Forrest Floral Design; Studio Image Make Up; Arthurs Catering (Yum!); Bob Myers

Congratulations Kindra and Kris! We can't wait to plan the baby showers....(I know, I know, they just got married, but what cute babies they will have....I can't help it)!

Andrea & Richie

Only 7 months to go!

One of our newly engaged couples just had their engagement photo shoot with their fabulous photog Sara Kauss, here in Winter Park....I mean seriously, do they make the photographers job easy or what??? They are too cute! We can't wait to see them all "Dolled" up on their wedding day! Andrea is going to make one stunning bride! Check back in May 2010 for their 'Down the Aisle" pics...
