Whitney and Adam 1/3/09

Whitney and Adam had a gorgeous wedding with a very classic winter feel at the Hawthorne House. Whitney is the daughter of Patty Johnson who owns and runs KC Photobooth. They designed this amazing event together. They had the most adorable snowflake placecards. Patty made the chair caps and fabric chargers which looked absolutely amazing once placed on the tables (I do believe they are now for rent)!

We were called in about 10 days before to assist with "day of" coordination. As I've told many couples in the past, day of coordination is not only a gift to the bride but definitely a gift to the mother of the bride who typically gets stuck with the organization of the entire day and day of! I'm so glad we were there to see both mother and bride enjoy the day in it's entirety!!! Enjoy the photos. Here's a list of vendors.

Flowers-Branches & Twigs (Andrea always does a great job)
Cake-Caren's Cakes (check out this cake, which was a custom design Whitney found)
Ceremony/Reception-Hawthorne House (the staff there is the absolute sweetest!)
Band-Atlantic Express (with Hal Wakes--see the clip courtesy of Peter at Kairos)
Videography-Kairos Moment Wedding Films
Photographer-Mark Leonard Photography
Framed Art-Alexander & Co

CONGRATS TO WHITNEY AND ADAM!

New Year's Resolution-BLOG MORE OFTEN!

Well, the holidays truly caught up with me...and the fact that we have a ton of new weddings being planned for 2009. So, my resolution this year is (among other things) blog more! With that said...

In September, I was contacted by Shannon in Colorado for "day of" coordination for her 10/11 wedding. We completely hit it off and she has the best laugh of anyone I know! It was planned to be a small, intimate wedding at Southmoreland Park on the Plaza. There was to be a tent with all the rentals you can imagine involved. Only, Shannon started to panic about the weather (she will admit this!). So, two weeks before the wedding, Shannon flew in town and we decided to keep the ceremony at the park but move the reception to Weddle Event Space (convenient considering her fiance's last name was and still is Weddle...no relation). At this time, Shannon and I decided that it might be best that I fully take over and get this puppy moved. It was a challenge, but it turned out perfectly (including the weather, but oh well). Catering was provided by Oklahoma Joe's, while the mini cupcakes were provided by BabyCakes in the River Market (can I say, amazing?) and reception music was provided by Complete Music. Chris at Glow Imagery was the photographer and shared the link to this slideshow of the wedding.
