Good morning ladies!!! Sorry I didn't come on sooner, but my computer had to get fixed, and I wanted to wait to get more pictures! Thanks so much to Hollie, Adina, and Cassie-June for sharing their pics!!! I really appreciate it.
Thanks to Holllie, Adina, Cassie-June, Jessica, and Qiana for being there to share in such a special day!
Well, we're not leaving on our HM until November, so you're stuck with me ladies! We went to AC for a few days to 'game' and now it's back to the nitty-gritty.
What can I say about Sunday April 30??? Weather - perfect, bridal party - hotties, vendors - exceptionally EXCEEDED my expectations, Fox Hollow - perfection!
My vendors:
Dress (custom made) - perfect except my bustle was literally falling apart b/c people kept stepping on my train - bridal attendant was there the entire time fixing it for me.
Hair & Makeup (Mia from BL) - amazing. She did my hair & mu, mom's mu, 2 bm's hair & mu, and another bm's hair. She was there on time, got right to work, and was AMAZING.
Limo's (Romantique) - once again, perfect. Our driver was right on time, enthusiastic, lined up everyone in the church, was on top of everything, loved him!
DJ (Vinny from High Voltage Sounds) - perfect! Had folks up on the dance floor the ENTIRE night, enthusiastic, always a step ahead, and just AMAZING!!!
Cigar Roller (La Rosa Cubana) - on time, a HUGE hit, and highly recm'd.
Florist (National Floral) - Ana outdone herself. She's amazing and definitely my favorite vendor. The bok's were beautiful, exactly what I wanted, and still going strong today! The CP's were gorgeous, and every single person complimented on them. The pew bows at the church were more than I imagined, and were a perfect touch. We were bathed in rose petals everywhere, and really made everything tie together perfectly! PERFECT! One note, I totally forgot that I purchased 12 CP's but had 13 tables...here comes Ana to the rescue....as a special surprise to Ricky and I she made an amazing arrangement for the dias, but since I was short one CP - we put it on the extra table and no one knew the difference!
Photography (Marianela Vera) - She's amazing, bought Justin as her assistant, and they were there catching everything the entire time. I'm soooo excited about our proofs (one week) b/c I saw them snapping away at some things I would never have thought about. Our bridal party and family loved them b/c they weren't obnoxious and in your face at all times. They were subtle, talented, friendly, and simply amazing (again!)
Fox Hollow - words cannot express how perfect they were. I had an amazing MD (Angel) who actually did my uncle's wedding 9 years ago at Chateau Briand (small world eh?) and just as amazing Bridal Attendant (Jackie)....the food was perfect, the room was perfect, every single person that attended cannot STOP raving about the food and service. I have cake to last us for a month or so, or even feed a small country right now.
Inn at Fox Hollow - amazing! I even got to see my hall/date twin Chas and share some love! The staff was great, friendly, rooms were clean, top-notch, and the breakfast in the morning was just what we needed.
Smaller notes - those 'lil details' - yes, people notice them...slipper basket was a HUGEEEEE hit - went like hot cakes, photo cube - best idea b/c I didn't have to worry about where the cards were all night b/c they were right next to us and our parents...they always tell you the day flies by - I believed it, but not to this magnitude...everyone kept saying 'Oh my gosh, it's XYZ already???'
Here are some non-pro pictures that I've collected from our guests, in addition to the 150+ that Hollie took! Enjoy!
