…Since May 26, 2007

Gosh!  The world is completely different since May 26th, 2007.  I mean, a lot has changed.  Heck, we’ve added a baby boy to the family– and he’s now 3!   Well, Kelly & Jarrett– they finally decided to do it.  Not get married, that is.  They FINALLY picked the pictures for their WEDDING ALBUM!!  And today– after four years of selecting… and switching… and waiting… their gorgeous album arrived from Italy.    It is truly a work of art and a piece that I know they will treasure for years to come– and although it’s been many moons since their BIG day– looking through the pages brings back so many wonderful memories.  I will admit, it’s actually been nice to extend this process (far) longer than normal– because Kelly is such a sweetie and we’ve enjoyed keeping up with her and Jarrett over the years.  Sometimes it’s hard to close the book on the wedding too.  We get it.

In honor of this momentous occasion for both Kelly & US, we’ve compiled some pictures of her beautiful wedding album– and some of our favorites from their day.

The (Fabulous, Gorgeous & Amazing) Broach Bouquet

Love, love, love, love this bouquet.  Ok– So I think you get the point.  We designed this (Fabulous, Gorgeous & Amazing) for Rachel’s wedding at Cypress Grove Estates just after Thanksgiving.   Ahhhh…. everything special, vintage and OH-so-ETSY-perfect!!

Perhaps my favorite bouquet of 2010!  What will 2011 bring??

Lauren & Tom's Album

We loved working with Lauren & Tom on their beautiful wedding this past Spring.  Here is their wedding album highlighting the days events.  We love our beautiful album complilations– the bride selects the pictures and our team creates a beautiful keepsake.  The pages are thick, glossy & seamless– and the options in covers are endless– everything from Hand-Sewn Leather, Plexiglass or even Stainless Steele.  There is something to suit everyones personal style!

Lauren & Josh: Romantic wedding weekend

From the moment our phone rang asking about our availability for this wedding- I have been in awe.  The amount of kindness & love that oozes from the Corry & Longino families is infectious.  Every reflection I have about the experience of this wedding is one of complete thankfulness.  And awe.  This family, particularily Lauren & her mother Debbie, have become part of my extended family.  I think that for the rest of my days, no matter where life takes us, they will be there– cheering for Greg and me.  A strong friendship bloomed in the making of this wedding day.   The Corry’s (and Longino’s) have become part of our extended family– and we love them.   They truly trusted our artisty, advice and vision to make their wedding day one for the history books.  It was beautiful in every way.  Every smile is sincere.  Every embrace is heartfelt.  And every moment of joy is shared– by everyone.  We were so happy to take part in this event– from start to finish.  And we couldn’t be more proud to showcase their romantic wedding weekend with you all.  To Lauren & Josh- Congratulations!  You are so lucky to have each other.  May all your dreams come true…

The wedding took place at the Renaissance World Golf Resort in St. Augustine…

Lauren & Josh really wanted a “First Look” prior to the ceremony starting for formal pictures.  We rarely have a bride request this– but it truly gave us extra time for portraits and also Lauren & Josh joined their cocktail hour.  It was perfect. 

Lauren’s bouquet included gorgeous Panama Roses, Vendella Roses, White Ranunculus and “Lauren’s Lace Ivy”- grown by her mom Debbie for the last several years– especially to be used on Lauren’s wedding day.

A special thank you to our wonderful team that helped make this day perfect.  Many long hours and heavy lifting went into the creation of this day.  But wow- it was worth it!!

Lauren & Josh joined the cocktail reception, and the guests were in awe as the reveal wall opened and their beautiful room was unveiled.

The Faze Band kept the guests entertained the entire night!!  It was a great party!!

Apparently, some Wedding Crashers managed to sneak into the party of 250 guests unnoticed.   They even signed the guest book!  So hilarious!

We love you Lauren & Josh!  Congratulations!
