Heather was the owner of McConnell’s Catering‘s daughter, and had catering provided by their company. She also went above and beyond in developing the decor. She detailed many small hand made items, such as sewn pillows and lace votives. Jay Qualls made a magnificent cake for the groom shaped as a boat that was the talk of the evening.

Corrine and Jason had an elaborate reception at the Parthenon in Centennial Park. With the statue of Athena overlooking, the couple and their guests enjoyed a delicious dinner including a dessert station by Pinkberry. One remarkable element of their wedding was the seating chart written on recycled glass. The piece was unintentionally featured on Talk of the Town television show, highlighting eco-friendly accessories to include in a wedding.

It was such an honor to plan a Bar Mitzvah with Jody Mattison and Dr. Jordan Asher for their son, Taylor. Following the ceremony at West End Synagogue, was the sports-themed celebration at Loveless Barn. As you can see from the pictures provided by Divine Images, Taylor had an awesome time at his Bar Mitzvah!

With the ceremony being held at elegant, Scarritt Bennett, Amy and Hart wanted a very fun, modern atmosphere for their reception! The panoramic glass view from the 22nd floor of the venue, created an incredibly ambient mood. Clean, white furniture, custom drapes, and an all glass design created contemporary lines, reminiscent of Scandinavian design. The grooms cake, designed by Jay Qualls, was shaped as an open heart to represent his career as a heart surgeon. Thanks to Chef’s Market, Nashville Event Lighting, and Focal Point Cinematic Weddings, Amy and Hart had the time of their lives!

This is one of my favorite images from a wedding! It really shows all of the detail and ambience of the room design. With the help of Nashville Event Lighting, Chef’s Market and Village of Flowers, I transformed hip Houston Station into an elegant yet chic environment. Sarah and Kyle even provided guests with special made coffees from Noteable Blends to go along with the Dessert Designs cake. They had the cutest idea for their table names! Instead of being numbered, each table was labeled with the name of a concert the couple attended together. Their wedding was a blast for everyone involved!

What a wonderful couple Lindsey and Zach were to work with! The couple met online, a surprisingly successful way for harding working professionals to meet their true love! If both people truthfully fill out their profile, the system is very accurate, as is testament to Zach and Lindsey!  Planning with them was so much fun! Lindsey was so carefree and excited about marrying Zach!

The War Memorial was intricately decorated by Enchanted Florist, Connie Duglin, Visual Elements and Blue Nova. The floor plan was in a fun design with focus on a Jay Qualls cake, hung on a trussing in the middle of the stage. The whole wedding experience was very personalized to the couples personality. The grooms cake was a masterpiece, with layers of action figures. When guests arrived at the reception hall, they were greeted with a will call sign imitating that of a live concert, since Lindsey is a song writer. Zach’s family owns a car dealership and provided high class transportation for their guests. With Carrabbas as the cater and Spangler for entertainment, no one wanted the evening to end!
