2.27.09 – Kristen and Matt’s Reception

Ok, so this is going to be a HUGE post, lots of pictures and possibly some stories along the way!  I’ve been friends with Kristen for some time now since she’s also in the wedding industry as a florist!  Let me tell you, she does AMAZING work!  And she’s very fun to work with and a good sense of humor!  And she’s totally harrassed me on Facebook to get these done ASAP.  And honestly, I was going to work on them anyway…enough talking?  Time for pictures?  What do you think this is?  A PHOTO blog?!

I took some more fine art type pictures of all the awesome flowers!  Prepare there will eventually be more!

Awesome decor, the room looked so great!  Linens came from The Chair Couture!

Sunflare, inside, over the cake table?!  Couldn’t have turned out more perfect!!

Funny story about the dress pictures:  While Meson Sabika is beautiful, there’s really no awesome place to hang the dress.  So what do I do?  Run to my car, grab a 3M command hook, move a table and plant that dress right up there!  No harm done to the wall and great pictures, win-win?  Sometimes you have to make things happen for yourself!

Everything was music themed!

Matt’s tall but I’m used to that because my husband is 6’6″!!  I think Matt was around 6’5″  and now that I put a number on it, Kristen will be sure to correct me

The lovely bride had her makeup done by Cynthia Sally!

So it was freezing out and they were both recovering from upper respiratory infections, so the grounds at Meson Sabika were not really in the plans!  We grabbed these in the few minutes before being announced and waiting for guests to leave the bar.

Just before being announced, I caught this and they didn’t even know  I’m a ninja.  (with a camera instead of a sword)

I caught Kristen crying during her own speech, it was touching and really funny at the same time!

Everyone danced all night long!  The DJ was great and really nice!  I can’t wait to work with him again (Don Kaminsky with XL-Entertainment), he really enjoys what he does!

I totally laid on the floor for this shot!  Everyone thought it was hilarious, I’m pretty sure I’ll do almost anything for the shot!  Some of my bpic clients have seen me almost fall off a bed or chair trying!   Floor, much safer.

Last shot of the night

Ok Kristen and Matt, you’ve got the LARGEST blog post, and let me tell you, it was hard to narrow it down!  Wish I could show you them all right now, but alas, you have to WAIT! 

Until next time!
