SO – being a new iPad lover – well, I mean, I always was a lover… but I finally stopped staring at them in the store and GOT one – here’s a new fun tool I came across from The Budget Savvy Bride.

The Ultimate Wedding Planner App for the iPad. Even better yet… it’s FREE! Woo Hoo! So, all you Techy Brides (and Apple Lovers in general) will love this.

Go, get it… now… have fun :)

Allison’s Bridal Shower was featured today on Borrowed and Bleu!

The shower was so fun and super cute and… I’m glad I could host it.  I can’t believe it was last year!

Special thanks to both her maid of honors and also to Dana of Dana K Designs!

Thanks to everyone who participated in last weeks contest. Derik and I had a very relaxing week off (woo hoo!) and it’s time to announce the winners!!!

Billy & Liz came through with almost 30% of the votes… way to go you guys!!! Your iTunes card is on its way :)

Happy almost 2012! Can’t wait!

I have really wanted to do this for quite some time. I love my clients and I’m so grateful to them for their trust in me. I recently got some reviews from my Bride and Grooms from this past year… and to say that I’m honored is an understatement. You guys rock!! Seriously.

I thought I’d run a fun little contest for my 2011 clients. There are WAY too many favs, but I thankfully was able to narrow it down to one image per session. Below are some of my FAVS from each of your sessions. So, if you were engaged, a bride, and married all in the same year – you get 3 entries basically. Every session has an image.

SO – get your FRIENDS AND FAMILY TO VOTE!!! The image/session with the most votes will get a $15 iTunes card or Starbucks card (their choice). The contest starts today – obviously :) – and it will end on Dec 23rd (Friday before Christmas). I will determine the winner that day by noon by the most votes. The winner will be contacted and they can choose their prize!!!

Make sure you share on Facebook as well!! NOW – go get those votes!!! This should be fun :)

Liz & Billy are married!! Their wedding was simply gorgeous and I was excited to check out The Vineyard at Florence for the first time. It’s beautiful out there!

Liz & Billy, thank you so much for having me… I had a blast! I think Billy’s sister said it best when she said that these two know how to make each other laugh. They had smiles on their face all day… and nothing would change that. Also, their family and friends sure know how to party!

Hope you two are having an amazing and relaxing honeymoon. Hopefully Derik and I can hang out when you get back and settled in!

Liz & Billy chose a first look and it was so sweet to watch…

I fell in love with the wine barrel room… just a little :)
