I had a meeting in Harford County today, so you know what that means….K&B Bridals time! It’s been a while since I stopped by and boy did I miss it! I love catching up with Bridget and Corinne!
They have a new window up too!
I found a few more fun shots from behind the scenes!
Today we have the elusive “photographer getting out of the way” shot.
See how she tries to hide the fact that she has lips.
This photographer seems to really like his new flash.
Another elusive “photographer fixing the shirt” shot.
I have to say, I enjoy posting these more than the weddings!
What behind the scenes would be complete without a “Jen working/thinking” face. Less scary than normal!
Yay for a few good ones! The elbow might be the focus, but hey, what can you do?
The church had THE coolest thing I’ve ever seen at a church…..the parting of the red sea!!! The pastor (from another church) liked it too!
I even found Nemo!
What do you do while you wait for the ceremony to start? Candyland of course!
Sometimes accidents happen, don’t worry, your photographers are here to help!
I love this shot Bret got while testing out the light….it looks like I’m a kid trying to play with the bigger kids. “Hey guys, hey hey, can I play too? Pleaseeeeeeeeeee!”
We got an AWESOME dinner! Oh man, SO good.
“But soft, what is my wife doing now?”
“Ah, Jen, quit it, come on, no more testing shots!”
Ah, so great to be home! I’ve been away for about two weeks now. We house sat for friends for a few days and then I went to Vegas for the Wedding MBA conference. It was a great conference learning how to better my business and myself, specialized for wedding vendors. I already have a list of action items I can implement pretty much immediately. I’m SO excited and SO energized. Grateful for the time away….but soooo thankful to be home, sleep in my own bed and hit the ground running with my business.
I may or may not do a long blog post about all of my adventures (if you’re interested, let me know and I will!) but for now, I wanted to share some pics from a night of TWO vendor parties. The first was sponsored by The Knot.
Then we hopped a cab for another party sponsored by WeddingWire!!
The view was INSANE!
Let me paint a picture for you.
You’ve spent thousands upon thousands of dollars on your wedding. You’ve spent countless hours planning the perfect day for you. Your blood, sweat and tears are in this wedding. Your fingers still hold scars from the DIY centerpieces. Let us not forget the super detailed timeline you created weeks ago for the day. AND you picked out the perfect linens for the tables!
But, on the day of your wedding, the centerpieces never made it out to the tables…they might still be in the trunk of your car…your Aunt Molly was in charge of that, but she hadn’t seen Aunt Betty in so long, she got caught up in catching up. Your Uncle Stan was going to help keep everyone in line for the day, but he was a little more interested in the open bar. And then, to top all this off, your caterer didn’t use the right linens!
I would HATE for something like this to happen to you. What can you do about it? Hire a day of coordinator of course! (Moore & Co. Event Stylists do this!)
You might be thinking you can just use your friends and family day of…and sometimes this works out…but, at the end of the day, you want your friends and family to be able to relax and enjoy the day too! You’ve put in SO much work, it’s really worth hiring a day of coordinator! Having someone to step in and have copies of your contracts and be able to say, “um, caterer, this linen is wrong…fix it.” Is pretty priceless.
This ends our wedding planning series. I hope you’ve learned something that will help you plan your own wedding. If you have any questions, or corrections, let me know!
I’ll leave you with something that Moore & Co. styled and executed at our style shoot. 🙂
