La Dolce Vita

Happy fall everyone! It not only feels like a month has passed since our last post, it has been a month. Whew! Where does the time go? Oh yes, I have a 17 month old, that’s where. In years past, November was one of those relaxing fall months where we get to unwind after a nonstop summer and relish in our hard work by pampering ourselves with massages, pedicures and sleeping in. Ha! Not this time year. It seems the slump of the past few years has begun to fade and we’re turning a new leaf as we begin booking weddings not only for spring and summer of 2011, but winter as well, starting with a recent full service booking for January 1st! We could not be more excited to kick off the New Year with a wedding and working alongside a wonderful family makes it that much better. So, I begin this post by saying how grateful we are here at Blush for our amazing clients that we had the privilege of working beside this year, as well as the wonderful clients we’ll get to know in the year ahead. Thank you for trusting in our years of experience, positive energy and professionalism as we help you with your most important celebration!

Elle Images Now without further adieu, let me introduce to you Brandee and Erik. I feel like I met these two in a past life…maybe that’s because Brandee and I met back in the spring of 2009 and I worked very closely with her through the entire planning process. I could not have asked for a kinder, funnier and more “on it” bride…Erik is one lucky guy. Brandee was one of those brides who had been planning her wedding since she was a little girl and was just waiting for prince charming to come along. Elle Images When she and Erik met they hit it off immediately and it wasn’t long before Brandee knew he was the one! She had decided on so many details a year and a half before her wedding that I couldn’t help but wonder why she hired me, though I’m certainly glad she did. It was so fun to see her inspiration and visions come to life through her many crafty projects, some of which involved Erik, who volunteered to paint the very cool metal signs that were placed through out the Rhododendron Garden to direct guests to the ceremony site…what a guy! Elle Images Their vibrant and whimsical orange and lime green hues carried through in every aspect of their wedding including their flowers, programs, menus, candy buffet, place settings, ribbon, and even the candles on the guests tables. Not one detail was overlooked and this dynamic duo made sure their guests were in for a good time from the start of their sentimental ceremony to the last song of the night. Elle Images Best wishes Brandee & Erik and thank you for including us in your wonderful celebration! We wish you a lifetime of joy and thank you for sharing your wonderful honeymoon photos…looks like you had a great time touring Italy. Here’s to the sweet life…enjoy!
