I have some very exciting news! We've been featured in the Fall/Winter 2014 edition of Minnesota Bride! I'm so very honored to have helped plan this fantastic wedding! It took place in late August of 2013 at one of my favorite venues - Camrose Hill Farm.I love working at the farm and I've been so lucky to have done quite a few weddings there for the 2014 season. Of course, it's so fun to look back at each of the weddings that have taken place at there, and see how different they all are!
Olivia & Johnny reside in California, so she needed some "boots on the ground" to help her find the right vendors, and pull all the details together. As you can imagine, it is difficult to plan a wedding in one state, while residing in another. I'm not trying to brag but the wedding went off without a hitch, and I really think that has something to do with her having hired a planner. ;D
Olivia is a beautiful blonde, with a bubbly personality and great sense of humor. Johnny is quite the dapper gentleman, and together they make such an endearing couple! They wanted to incorporate some components of the Jewish faith into their nuptials, so Olivia's father and brother erected a fantastic branch chuppah by the gazebo, and Cindie St. Claire, florist extraordinaire of Camrose Hill Flowers decorated it.
It was a lovely ceremony, breaking of the glass, and a ring warming made it so heart-felt and charming! The reception was equally as beautiful, with Olivia's penchant for vintage romance represented in the blush pink flowers and deep teal accents. They opted to do rows of farm tables to give the affair the feel of a "family style" event. With Johnny and Olivia seated in the center, they were surrounded by all their loved ones.The food was, well, fabulous and provided by Fabulous Catering! With A Twist bar supplied the beer, wine and signature drinks to keep the guests merry through the evening. At the end of the reception, Olivia and Johnny opted to do a formal sparkler send-off and magical photos were captured by the talented La De Da Photography!
It was a great day and I'm so excited that it is inspiration for all the brides to be in the upcoming MN BRIDE magazine - fall/winter 2014. :)
Happy planning,
