Danielle is truly a special young woman!! She is a Lieutenant in the Marines, she has already been to Iraq and is heading back in a few months. She is an amazing woman and I so happy to now know her! Then there is Adam, quite impressive as well! He too is a Lt in the Marines and has also served in Iraq. Actually that is where there union began!

With that all said let me first thank them both for graciously serving our country! Thank you :)

Now on to their big day. it was August 15th 2009 and wow it was a BEAUTIFUL day! Dani, her mother, MIL and I selected her gown from Betsy Robinson and it was a perfect fit! Dani the marine was a stunning bride!

I had truly been awaiting this wedding all year because Dani fell in love w/ a design that I had been dying to sink my teeth into. Beyond Imaginations out did themselves on this one. On 6 of our reception tables we had 4 ft trees :) the extra touch was that the designers actually carved a huge banana leave and cascaded it on the outside of the vase, it was unreal. They also used asparagus to add life and texture to another tables trio of delight!! Everywhere you looked was a feast for your eyes. I am always beaming when a bride sees her reception space, but this day I was over the moon!!



We also had a GORG cake by Clara's Designer Cakes. The four tiered damask stenciled treat, was accented w/ a pair of labybug bride & groom. You see the bride lost her best friend a few years back and she loved ladybugs. So I asked Clara to create a ladybug out of gumpaste as a surprise. I had no clue she would take the extra step and create cute lil bride & groom ladybugs. It was a tearful surprise for Dani and I am certain her BF was smiling.

Leena & Suneils Rain filled day!!

Well, I know you are as shocked as I am, but I am keeping my promise and the Thursday blog is here!!! I even found a cool lil site that helped me to make a video :) Ok so its not that good and the music is terrible, but it was my first try, lol!!!

Leena and Suneil had quite a day on August 1st of this year. It started out BEAUTIFUL, I mean there were no clouds. Even the forecast was clear. Well we had a surprise let me tell ya. The groom was beginning his Barratt at the bottom of the Evergreen Mansion in Baltimore and the clouds simply opened. Did I mention the ceremony was to take place outside and the mundap had been built for hours!!!! Oh yea, we had to race and I do mean race to reshuffle the reception tent and get a ceremony site together in minutes as the guests stood out in the pouring rain. It was nuts, but the groom was as calm as a cucumber as he rode up the path on his horse. The guests were awesome as well.

In the end it was an amazing event for all!! The bride and groom had a great time dancing the night away!

Thanks to the staff of Linwoods Catering & Partyland, for moving w/ me to change the space so quickly!

Ok so now you can enjoy my lil video debut :)
