Linda and Mike Sneek Peak August 24, 2011

Being a UVA graduate, I love it when we have events on grounds. (For those who are not familiar with that term, UVA students refer to the campus as “the grounds.”) I do love  re-living the Wahoo memories. Today I share with you a sneek peak of Linda and Mike’s August UVA wedding. The talented Rene and Jesie of Rene Tate Photography shared this snippet on their blog and we cannot wait to see more!

A Guestbook Idea to Leave your Mouth Watering… June 2, 2011

Couples are always looking for creative ideas for make their wedding unique. In May we provided day of planning for Jessica and Ed, and I couldn’t help but notice their tasty guestbook. Rather than the usual coffee table book in which guest sign their favorite picture, Jessica picked out a couple’s cookbook. This particular one was titled Bride and Groom Cookbook: Recipies for Cooking Together.  Guests were asked to leave a heartfelt note on the page of their favorite dish. I was so hungry after flipping through the recipies and finally decided to sign on the BBQ shrimp skewers page..my spring and summer favorite. Here are a few pictures of thier event to share. Thanks to Amanda Dorian Photography for taking these great photos!

We have the best relationships with all of our clients, but every now and then a couple comes along that you just fall in love with at the very first meeting. That’s how I feel about Kelly and Hendrick. The Northern Virginia couple is getting married this July at the beautiful UVA Chapel with a reception at the gorgeous Clifton Inn. We have been working with them for months now, and I cannot wait for their very special day. Last week they traveled down Rt 29 in search of unique locations to take their engagement photos. Led by the oh so talented Tammy and Jason, from Jason Keffer Photography, they walked away with some amazing…and playful photos! Here are a few of Tammy’s favorites!
