Blog Index

We have tried to design our blog for our fans, friends, and family to keep up with what we are doing each week.  It is also a good way to get to know us.  Or maybe just a way that I (Angela) can talk up a storm without John getting annoyed.  We will see...

Also included are the Insider's Tips, which started out as a challenge to post one tip per week for an entire year.  We hope that you will find that they are not just the normal information you find out there in wedding world, but more unusual tips that can only be found when you live on the inside.  Ha!  Really, we just attend a lot of weddings.

Alabama Weddings Magazine | Behind the Scenes | 2012 | Norton's

Now that the long anticipated magazine release is out, you can see the beautiful photo shoot of Norton's Weddings & Events.  Sure it is a long day filled with lots of hard work, but you do get to hang out with your "work friends" so it makes it all worth it!  

For this shoot, J Ross with Norton's trasforrmed the venue into a garden oasis.  You can see all of the pictues in the 2012 Alabama Weddings Magazine.  Here is the behind the scenes video that we did of all of the fun that goes along with a photo shoot!  A special thanks to Jerrod Brown Studios, Olexa's, Bella Couture, Mr. Burch Formal Wear, Melissa Moore Bogardus (makeup), Bromberg's, Andy Tolar with Design Productions and The Garage.

Alabama Weddings Photo Shoot!

Several times a year wedding vendors work together to provide inspiration to all brides through photo shoots for Alabama Weddings Magazine.  It usually consists of a pretty long day, but the results are worth it! Our contribution was to film the setup of the different "scenes" plus a little bit of clowning around of the vendors.  The location was a bit unusual, but Ted's Garage Cafe turned out to be perfect for the day.  It was really fun!

 

Although the edit of the video is not completed just yet, I wanted to say thanks to all of the contributing vendors!
