HEART Deco- A Valentine’s Treat

Tuesday, February 14th, 2012

I have never been so IN LOVE with a photo shoot.  Honestly, one of the reasons I love this career path is because I get to collaborate with so many wonderful vendors in the wedding industry.  Most of you may know my background before weddings is visual merchandise.  So it’s no surprise that I love to use my creativity in a whole new light and not just weddings!

This blog was inspired by Heather’s parents who celebrate their 43rd wedding anniversary today! Everything in this blog is real…even the couple!

Dallis and Scott Meyer 1.7.12

Thursday, February 9th, 2012

Meet Dallis and Scott- this crazy in love couple tied the knot just after the New Year at City Museum, here in St. Louis.  Dallis and Scott are professional Roller Derby players and are probably one of the coolest couples I’ve ever worked with.  She is as charming as they come and Scott (aka Scotty) loves and adores everything about her, which is such a powerful thing to see in couples.  Behind all the glamour of my job I truly enjoy a beautiful wedding and when I heard them share their vows (they wrote their own) it was a moment I’ll never forget, I couldn’t help but to reach for my heart and whip my tear… Not to mention she has one heck of a voice :)

Dallis and Scott really wanted the wedding to be special and reflect who they are.  They had a Steampunk Themed wedding, playful/fun environment (City Museum), and an amazing band (Griffin and the Gargoyles).  The flower girl came in on Roller Skates (she rocked it) and the two ring bearers came in with firefly mason jars- too cute!  The photobooth and dance floor was packed the entire night and I am happy to say, no one left early!  Many of the guests enjoyed the theme and came in costumes or brought fun props.  This was a very unique wedding, which makes me love it even more!!!

Rachel and Jermal Seward 10.15.11

Friday, February 3rd, 2012

I just amazes me sometimes how a wedding day can be so perfect.  Wedding planners spend most of the year hoping and praying that the rain will stay away for their outdoor weddings… this October 15th wedding is no exception!

Rachel and Jermal met at the Zoo (they both very active in philanthropic work).  Jermal was on the board of the Young Zoo Friends and a mutual friend introduced the two at the annual Zootini.  So it was no surprise that they wanted to get married near by and it just so happens to be one of the most beautiful locations in St. Louis, Forest Park.  Rachel and Jermal wanted to have an outdoor ceremony, followed by an extended cocktail reception and later a dinner reception at Copia for close friends and family.  We lined The Statue with 250 chairs over looking all of Forest Park- every moment was breathtaking.

Rachel and Jermal celebrated with friends and family drinking champagne and nibbling on cake pops. This charming couple is loved by so many, and it was not an easy decision to go against having a large wedding party yet to have one best man and one maid of honor.  However, they honored 26 of their closest friends/family with boutonnieres and a large group picture.  I LOVED this idea…everyone seemed to as well!
