Crazy First Dance

Kevin and Jill are one of a kind and their first dance proves it. They were married in St.Kitts and 2 weeks later they held their reception at the Indianapolis Museum of Art. The evening was a blast. Enjoy the clip!!!

Amanda & Mike

Amanda and Mike were married on Friday the 22nd at the Indiana Historical Society. It was absolutely beautiful with all the gorgeous flowers and décor. What a cool place to have a wedding. The ceremony was packed with all 257 people in attendance, not a chair left in the hall! Then the guests went downstairs for the cocktail hour on the canal. What a wonderful, breezy night. We had a hard time getting the people to come inside for the cake cutting. The poor jazz quartet downstairs should have been playing outside, who would have known that a June evening would be so perfect? After the cake cutting, the guests went upstairs to meet and greet the bride and groom as they found their apple place cards. Amanda wanted to use the apples as the place card table because she is a teacher, how cute! I’ve never seen so many apples in a row. The party got started around 9:30 when we really kicked it up a notch, boy those fraternity brothers had so much fun they didn’t want to go home. As the horse and carriage took them away to the romantic honeymoon suite, the guests flung finger slingers at the newlyweds. This is one wedding those guests will never forget. How fun! What a crowd! The after party went on for hours.

The Campbell/Scholz Wedding

Courtney and Kevin were married on June 16,2007. The ceremony was held at ST. Luke's and their reception was at the Ritz Charles Garden pavilion. Even though it was on one of the hottest days of the year, Courtney still looked beautiful. Kevin had a little trouble knowing the difference from Courtney's left hand from right hand during the exchanges of rings at ceremony but other than that everything turned out perfect. The couple's cake topper was very unique. The florist made a monogram out of greenery it looked great and tasted delicious.

10 Year Anniversary

BIG NEWS: May 31st is my 10 year anniversary. How exciting! We are going on a big date tonight at our favorite restaurant Peterson’s in Fishers. Mike and I met when I was only 18 a freshmen in college. My roommate had a crush on him, so we went to a party that night and that’s the end of her story. Needless to say I don’t talk to that roommate any longer, and I fell in love. We dated for 6 years before we decided to get married. Marrying my college sweetheart has been the best thing in my life. I love this man! I love being married! I love LOVE! Marriage is a beautiful thing! This picture was taken in St. Kitts where we celebrated our anniversary.

Elissa & Andy

May 19, 2007

We were so pleased to help Elissa and Andy with their wedding at the Crowne Plaza Union Station on May 19, 2007. It was absolutely breath taking. The wedding was perfect. I was truly impressed with the service and the staff at the Crowne. We were ahead of schedule by 45 minutes and the chef made it happen. This doesn’t happen very often, but needless to say we were excited to have tell the bride and groom we were ready to go! We were able to coordinate everything and get the dancing underway. Dave and Rae were able to start the evening with their duo and later added the full band. The guests never stopped dancing. It was a long night, but very enjoyable. Elissa was so pleased with her perfect day. She even stopped by and dropped off a gift, how sweet. Sorry no pictures this week, my camera still has sand in it from St. Kitts J. I promise to have a new camera by the next wedding.

ICVA Event

At the beginning of the year Circle City Planners joined the Indianapolis Convention Visitors Association and on May 15th we participated in their annual trade show on Monument Circle. Tonya picked me up and on the way to the event we talked about how we both would like to get a little sun while out on the circle. But when we got there and found Chad all hope was lost. Our booth was in the shade and it was surprisingly very windy. We all helped set up the booth. We did an Indy 500 race themed table with flag colored napkins. Chad and Tonya pinned and tied down our Circle City Planners banner and I placed the custom made water bottles on the table. The original labels were pulled off of the water bottles and put a new ones on with the Circle City Planners logo. Of course, this event was designed to meet new potential clients but we decided to put a twist on things. We sold the custom made bottled water for a dollar and all the proceeds went to breast cancer research. At the end of the day we met many of new vendors, potential clients and wrote a $ 100.00 check to the Susan G. Komen foundation. All in all the day was quite successful just very,very windy.

St. Kitts

The wedding was breath-taking. It was absolutely fabulous. The guests were taken to a remote beach area for the private sunset ceremony by car up through the mountain overlooking the island. Once the sunset, the guests were taken back to the reception at the property where a vervet monkey greeted them. The monkey participated in all the fun and we captured some great photos. One of the most important things for the couple was finding a minister who was personal and made the ceremony special. Our personal driver, whom we hired for the week, connected us to wonderful minister in town, who made the wedding perfect. There was not a dry eye on the beach once the couple stated their personal declaration to one another. It was unbelievable. I’ve done over 100 weddings in my career and this one by far topped them all. It was every girls dream wedding on the beach at sunset.

Obtaining the marriage license was very interesting. We followed the rules directly from the website, but that didn’t seem to apply once we got there. Luckily, our driver was able to guide us to the right people and the right places. The most hilarious thing that probably happened was when we entered the government center. They yelled at us for wearing our flip flops into the building. Later we found out that flip flops are only worn in the home, they call them house slippers. People in town continued to stare at our feet the entire time we were in the city.
