I hosted a bridesmaids brunch at this paint your own pottery studio. i reserved the private room, and had all my ladies paint a dessert plate for me to add to my collection. i went early to set up food, drinks, and favors. we had a blast hanging out and painting. i love pulling out my plates when we have people over for dessert.

Although i didn't get my dress here, i had a blast trying dresses on here! this place gives you the "movie" feeling of trying on dresses. they have a HUGE selection, nice fitting rooms, and great mirrors. they are a little pricey, but i recommend even if you are on a budget getting the experience and figuring out what you are looking for at a shop like this.

we took a tour of this venue when planning our wedding. although it was beautiful, the coordinator was incredibly rude and snobby. she actually told me, "we are the best of the best, there is not much you can change or alter about how we do weddings. we are barley getting one bride out the door before the next one comes in." it was a huge turn off. not to mention for a fall wedding you don't get to use anything but a banquet room...and there are a million other people wandering around during your wedding.

i had all my bridesmaids order their dresses from bellevue bridal. none of my wedding party lived here so they all had to go get fitted at home and call in their orders. bellevue bridal was great about this, and even gave us a discount for ordering all the dresses thought them. they also gave my a swatch of the dress color to help with planning.

this DJ was recommended to me by my venue director. when i first contacted them i was thrilled with everything and booked them right away. a few weeks before the wedding i had not heard anything from them, so i called to check in. turns out the dj i had book moved months before and my file had slipped through the cracks. they struggled to find someone for me, who then called me the morning of the wedding to tell me he lost my music selections and needed me to go over it with him on the phone. the actual music was fine, but the experience was annoying.

our invitations we not only exactly what we wanted, but beautifully hand crafted. we used sincerely invites for all our paper needs, save the dates, invites, programs, and favors.

our families are still talking about how good the food was at our wedding! chef frank was so easy to work with and was very accomoadating in making special requests. he actually let us bring in a favorite cookie recipe to have at the wedding. there was plenty of food, and they packed up a togo package for the bride and groom to take home with them that night, it was enjoyed :)

my whole wedding day i never cried, EXCEPT when i say my flowers! kendra did an amazing job creating all the ideas i had...better than i could have imagined. she was easy to work with, offered great advice, and is an amazing artist!

kelly is not only fun to work with, but captures the most memorable moments with beautiful photography. we used her for our engagement photos and wedding, and have hundreds of fabulous photos to treasure. she is well organized and a blast to have at your wedding!

This vintage schoolhouse is the perfect setting for both ceremony and reception. the charm of this venue is that you get the entire site, and are not sharing it with others during your event. the grounds are beautiful and a perfect setting for amazing photographs. it was a very special and romantic place to say i do.
