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.

Whitney + Billy: Reid Chapel & VHCC

This past Saturday we worked some of our favorite vendors to create a beautiful day for Whitney and Billy.  Anita Kanellis with AK Brides planned Whitney's wedding of her dreams.  Lighting was provided by Andy Tolar with Design Productions, making Vestavia Hills Country Club a beautiful shade of pink!  A couple of weeks ago, we did a photo shoot with Southern Bride Magazine where Rob Ingram was the photographer.  It was nice seeing him again at the wedding.  Another friend, Laura Eason had the very large task of doing makeup Whitney, her mom, and all of the bridemaids! Everyone looked beautiful!  Amazing band, Az-Izz, had everyone dancing so much that no one wanted to leave!  The day couldn't have been more perfect!

Jennifer Rogers & John Campbell @ Reid Chapel

Jennifer & John were married in a beautiful ceremony at Reid Chapel on the Samford campus.  We were a little concerned about the rain, but the sky finally did clear and we were able to get some really great shots of the couple outside.  

 

After the ceremony, the celebration continued at the Wynfrey Hotel.  Danny with Feel the Beat Entertainment guided everyone in having a great time (all the while keeping guests posted with the game scores!)  Jennifer and John, with their friends, danced the night away!  Rick Pennington was also there to capture of the photographic moments.
I loved the ice cream station - which by the way, I don't believe it a big enough trend.  I think it should be a staple.  Oh, and instead of flower arrangements on the individual tables, they had 8" cakes, iced and ready to be eaten.  All were different flavors!  Love that idea!
Anytime we work with Alene, a sense of calmness is all around.  Everything is organized and beautiful!  We very much appreciate that!  She is a classy lady with a classy bride!  Congrats to Jennifer and John!
The following is a sneak peek clip from Jennifer & John's beautiful September wedding.

Johnson-Anderson Wedding

Kandess & Daniel were married on a beautiful Saturday at Reid Chapel on Samford's campus.  This couple, along with their family were the nicest people to work with.  I know their marriage will be filled with many, many happy years!


This wedding also gave us an opportunity to work with photographers that we had never worked with before.  Brandon & Stacey Gresham with Simple Color.  Husband and wife team that were so friendly and easy to work with.  We would like to think that they are us on the photography side.  At least we hope we treat everyone as great as they do and are as talented as these two.

When the evening was over, we even were given homemade apple butter as a favor for the wedding.  Future brides:  This was  great idea!  It was package in a little glass container with a customized sticker with their last name and wedding date printed on it.  The entire things was decorated (even the ribbon and ink) was brown and pink, the wedding colors!  I haven't tasted it yet, but if it as good as it looks, then I will be very excited!  Update:  Tasted the apple butter, quite delicious!!!!

Enjoy the following raw footage taken from their reception.  Everyone was having a great time!
