Tara and Jesse

Friday, August 27th, 2010

There are funny people and then there is Donna Von Bruening. We LOVE working with Donna because she is always making our staff, our clients, and all of our vendors laugh all night long.

And Tara and Jesse’s laid lack and fun personalities were perfect for Donna and also for the whimsical teal and yellow art deco-inspired wedding. WED brought in TEC, Studio R, Snyder, and Jim Smeal to the Harbour Club to transform the space with some mid-century style. I especially LOVED the ostrich feathers!!

Congrats, Tara and Jesse!

Rebecca and Robby

Wow. Wow, wow, wow. When I opened up this file of photos taken by the wonderful Alison Mayfield of Christian Oth Studio I could not stop saying, “Wow.”

Rebecca and Robby’s wedding was just one of my favorites and NOT just because we worked on one of the most beautiful places in the entire world with some of my favorite vendors like The Sanctuary, Dahlia Designs, Wedding Cakes By Jim Smeal, TEC, Studio R and Snyder.

What really made it incredible for our whole staff was the graciousness and loveliness of the bride and groom, Rebecca and Robby. They are hip professionals living now in North Carolina who were just a true pleasure to work with every single day. I loved to talk with Rebecca about her wedding vision and loved that she trusted us to carry that through for her. Her style was timeless and elegant but with a good dose of fun thrown in there, too. What a great weekend it was on Kiawah… take a peek for yourself:

The stunning bride…

The groom “getting ready” for the wedding… :)

Both SO excited to see each other!

…A beautiful spot we found on the way out to Kiawah!

This little lady who was hanging out on The Sanctuary lawn was mesmerized by the bride, telling her, “You are soooo beautiful” and “I’m going to be a bride, too.” Precious. I think she would have participated in the rest of the photos if she could have.

Congrats to the new Mr. and Mrs.!!

I’ve been organizing photos and one thing that seems to be in every wedding is a few great, beautiful drinks. We’re certainly proponents of a signature drink to be served at a cocktail hour or throughout the wedding reception. It’s just a great way to show off an interest or color or detail… and truth be told, they’re always a hit.  It’s just not a wedding unless everyone has a beverage in hand, contented and ready to party the night away!

Here are a few fun ones I came across… what could you do for your big day? The caprina you drank while you were studying abroad in Brazil? The old fashions that you and your hubby drink while watching Mad Men each week? Your favorite sweet tea mojito from Cypress? The choices are endless, but certainly share a flavor you love with your guests!

WED in The Knot!

Hooray! It’s always nice to come back home from vacation to good news… and great news this is!

Congrats to Marni Rothschild Durlach and all of the vendors who worked on Kirsten and Paul’s wedding this past October. It was just featured in The Knot’s national magazine and we couldn’t be more thrilled.
