A Happy Couple: Lisa & John



Lisa & John
February 14, 2009

I am so happy to have had the opportunity to work with this terrific couple! Lisa & John are such fun, caring, easy going, happy people and definitely 100% in love. I adored their relationship and the special way that they looked at each other...especially on their wedding day.

Lisa & John chose "the day of love" to celebrate their marriage, which seemed to be very fitting. The ceremony was held at Emmanuel Baptist Church, where a close friend and pastor performed their service. Their palette of cherry red and baby pink created a very beautiful reception at Glassworks. The soft candlelight that surrounded the centerpieces added the perfect touch of romance. A breakfast buffet was served, complete with made-to-order omelets. After dinner, guests enjoyed mini wedding cakes topped with fresh fruit and edible flowers, as well as their signature drink, a Washington Apple Martini.

Lisa & John had a perfect day. The weather might have been a little chilly, but the rain held off, and (thankfully) there was no snow to be seen. Thank you to Lisa & John for allowing me to be a part of your special day and to all of the wonderful vendors who helped to make it a success!
