A Tale of Two Sisters

These two gorgeous girls are my step daughters. It has been my pleasure to document them since they were 12 and 13 years old. It's hard to believe they are all grown up now. They are not getting married, but we thought it would be fun to create a styled shoot. Steal this fun DIY PROJECT! These bouquets were created with flowers from Central Market. After I made these bouquets I read an interesting article by the Wedding Channel that mentioned how one of the new trends for 2012 is bouquets with "texture". Who knew?  I just wanted to do somethine unusual and fun!  I love the combination of purple kale, fake carnations, and white stock. The ribbon we used was from Hobby Lobby.  Then we finished it off with multi colored pearl head pins. The wedding gowns were generously provided by bridal shop Pence and Panache in Burleson.

Wedding Wire Bride's Choice Award 2012

 
We are super excited to announce that we are once again the recipient of the Wedding Wire Bride's Choice Award for 2012.  As a recipient, we are recognized as part of the top 5% of Wedding Professionals nationwide.

How are the winners determined?

The WeddingWire Bride's Choice Awards recognizes the top local wedding professionals from the WeddingWire Network that demonstrate excellence in quality, service, responsiveness and professionalism. Unlike other awards in which winners are selected by the organization, the WeddingWire Bride’s Choice Awards are awarded solely based on the reviews from over 1.2 million newlyweds. Awards are determined by a combination of four factors: Overall rating (quality), total number of reviews (quantity), review performance from 2011 (recency), and consistency of reviews from year to year (consistency).
 
A big "Thank You" to all of our amazing couples that raved about us to make this possible!

FUMC Dallas and Tower Club, Susie and Derek

Susie and Derek were married at the First United Methodist Church in Dallas on Saturday November 5th, 2011.  This church is such a lovely venue located in the heart of the arts district in downtown Dallas.  I love the contrast of this historic church next to the modern high rise buildings of the area.  The flowers provided by Dr. Delphinium were a gorgeous white and heather grey.  Susie and Derek's reception followed the ceremony at the Tower Club overlooking the downtown skyline.  They rocked the night away with a live band provided by Party Time and hosted by MC Bill Cody.
The wedding cake created by Frosted art Bakery was a custom design that was fashioned to match the flower arrangements.
