Wedding Recap: Mandy + Brandon

Mandy and Brandon were married on March 27, 2010, and I had a blast working with this Baltimore couple.  The fact that they lived 1000 miles away from Birmingham proved to be a bit challenging at times, but it all came together on wedding day!  The outdoor ceremony and reception took place at The Sonnet House.  David Shirk with Unplugged Photography did a beautiful job with the photography.  I am always totally impressed with his work.  Main Street Productions was on site the entire day to capture every detail and expression.  If you missed Mandy and Brandon's video clip, scroll down a few posts or go to Main Street's blog to watch!







Mandy chose a bright and fun spring palette.  The florals were by Kathy Miller with Kathy Miller Floral Design.  The bouquets included orange and pink gerber daises.  The food was absolutely delicious!  Cela and her staff at Imperial Catering did a wonderful job with the menu and services.  



The two cakes were done by the fantastic Barbara Sullivan of Barb's Cakes.  The groom's cake was unbelievably cool.  Brandon is a University of Georgia fan and Barb was able to tie in his passion for Bulldog football into the cake.



DJ and lighting services were provided by Carlos Olatera of Total Entertainment and he kept the party rocking until the very end!  As guests were leaving, they each grabbed some delicious pralines, made by the bride's mother.



Congratulations Mandy and Brandon!

Never Get Your Heels Stuck in Grass Again!

My solution to walking in the grass with heels has always been to walk on your tip toes until I came across SoleMates. This might be the best invention ever! It is a MIRACLE for all those ladies who want to show off their trendy heels.

Discreet and easy to use, the SoleMates High Heeler™ attaches easily to most stiletto and kitten heels. By increasing the surface area on the base of the heel, it reduces the pressure on this area and prevents the heel from sinking into grass or falling into cracks!

The patented design of the SoleMates High Heeler™ is mechanically engineered to fit snugly on most heels and yet the flexible material grips securely without damaging the heel or compromising the aesthetics of the shoe.
