Photo Shoot with Edric Morales

This weekend we had a great time setting up a photo shoot for Edric Morales with EM's Event Photography. We did a pink and gold spring table with greenery, branches and beautiful fragrant pink hyacinth flowers. I pulled a few things from our rental items (a gold sparkly runner, gold chargers, champagne & wine glasses, appetizer plates) and I dug into our stationery samples for some matching programs from a previous wedding.

After shooting the table, Edric took us outside for some photos of us! We had such a great time! Even though it was pretty windy most of the time, we were really lucky that the rain stopped for the entire afternoon so we could get some great outdoor shots. My cheeks literally hurt from laughing by the time we were finished. Edric is super fun to work with!

Here's a teaser from Edric's blog...check back soon for the full post later in the week!

Vendor Spotlight :: Catherine's Chocolates

I stumbled upon chocolate heaven last week. :) 

I've driven by Catherine's Chocolates in Avon countless times, and every time I told myself I'd stop next time I came by. Finally, I got the opportunity to stop in last week because of the bridal show. I even took a tour of the place and got to see a bit of the "behind the scenes" details. There are so many different and creative chocolates, plus so many other cute gifts to browse through. Stop in and see them at 36718 Detroit Road in Avon.

 

Since Easter is coming right up, of course the place was decked from floor to ceiling with adorable Easter decor. Oh, and the Easter candy.....there aren't even words to describe! I'll let the pictures do the talking....

Here's a photo of the chocolate station Catherine did for our bridal show (which they can do for weddings and other special events) along with some of the favors she did for the tables. My favorite is the chocolate caramel dipped apples....you have to try them!

"The Wedding Reception" Bridal Show

Our first ever "The Wedding Reception" bridal show was a hit! Thanks to all the brides who attended, the vendors who donated products and services, and the volunteers who helped make our show incredible! We had a wonderful evening, and everything turned out amazing! Stay tuned, this show was so great we HAVE to do it again!
