8.23.08 Congratulations Gina and Adam!

This past Saturday, August 23rd I had the pleasure of assisting/coordinating Gina and Adam's ceremony and reception. The lovely couple exchanged vows at the church of St. Francis Xavier and their fabulous wedding Reception took place at the spectacular 15,000 square foot penthouse Tribeca Rooftop, with a cocktail hour featuring the panoramic and beautiful views of NYC skyline...yep, right on the roof! Not one little detail escaped Gina while planning; from her 3 pair of shoes (each one had a purpose) to her absolutely gorgeous gown....palm fans, programs, menu cards (the menu was incredible btw), satin linens and centerpieces that were just so elegant and chic. The room was glistening with embracing candlelight and bejewelled with florals.
The guests tables were adorned elegantly with centerpieces consisting of large callas in an
x-tra tall trumpet vase, iridescent glass candle holders surrounding the base and beautiful menu cards inserted in a satin folded napkin.

And Robyn's favorite part...MY favorite time of the night...the cutting of the cake...
this gorgeous cake was just as it looks... s.c.r.u.m.p.t.i.o.u.s!

Everyone was having an awesome time.

Everyone was kind, funny and relaxed, this wedding was flawless.

Gina and Adam's wedding day was so extraordinary in every way, it truly felt like a fairytale wedding. We are so lucky to have met such wonderful couple! Gina and Adam, thank you for allowing us to be a part of your special day. May your love always be the heart of your marriage. Our Best wishes,

8.9.08 Congratulations Erica & John!

Beautiful and timeless... Erica and John tied the knot at The Mill in Springlake Heights on 8/9/08 during a lakeside ceremony. Erica wore the most beautiful dress, it was just perfect for her. I can't say I had a favorite moment since this wedding went off without a hitch! Here are a few photos by their awesome photographer, Josh Lynn. ("Josh, thanks for sharing")
In the elevator right after saying "I Do"
Erica enjoyed all the DIY stuff, with a little help she made
fan programs, place cards and table numbers herself...



The cake was delicious...

8.8.08 Congratulations Carrie and Dan!

Here is a sneak peek of Carrie and Dan's wedding which took place at The Birchwood in Whippany, NJ this past 8/8/08.
(non-pro pictures)
Here's the lovely bride.

The beautiful and touching ceremony took place in the gardens of The Birchwood. The ceremony had an extra special touch since it was officiated by Dan's mom and the ceremony music was performed by his aunt and uncle.

Carrie and Dan's Cocktail hour took place in The Greenery and their Reception in The Jefferson Ballroom. Carrie added her love for Gerberas throughout the Ceremony and Reception. We used floating Gerberas, floating candles and a few tealights to create her centerpieces. Table #'s were adorned with the Gerbera theme as well.
...and who doesn't love cake???

Carrie...it was a pleasure to plan with you such special day in your lives, thank you for sharing your day with us. Dan...what can I say, you won our hearts with your beautiful voice. We wish you the best...see you on Broadway!!! ::::cheers::: to a forever, happy and wonderful marriage! Cathy and Robyn
