Here are some things to look for when choosing a florist:
1. How do they deliver their flowers? If they do not deliver their bouquets in a vase with water, then walk. They clearly will be delivering flowers that will have been out of the water for quite some time. There is no excuse for this. By night's end, your bouquets will need to be thrown away - not so good if you would like to keep them a few days or preserve them.
2. When you ask them for flower choices, do they…

Anyone can video a wedding...anyone can take pictures at a wedding....but to do it professionally...to do it right...to do it so it is a keepsake to be handed down throughout the years...that takes a professional...and it takes many years to learn to do it correctly....especially when working with HD and with sound.

The "Knot" says it has a videography service that is offering a full day of wedding coverage in HD for $795.00. This can "not" be the price for full editing and authoring to DVD with interactive menu also....."no way"!!!!! If it is, please let me know. I'd love to see the finished product. Thanks, Bobbe

Here are a few observations that my crew has found that are true with most weddings, no matter where they are held:
1. You will always have some guests that will not dress up. But a ratty baseball cap worn during the ceremony and the reception????
2. Lemon peels do not burn in the votive cups, but rose petals will. Crystal droplets only smother out the flame and yes, wax poured out on table linens really does ruin the linen.
3. The table decorations are not for…

Make a Best Mans Speech
Standing behind the groom as he waits for his bride in the altar is what a best man normally does. But added to this very simple task comes a not so effortless one - the best man speech.
In a wedding, the speech of the best man is one of the most anticipated parts of the program. Of course, it won't be complete without best man speech jokes to provide the formal celebration with a touch of laid back and fun atmosphere. But how do you exactly define…

As I have said before, every year I like to attend the Oregon Shakespeare Festival in Ashland. I had never heard of Sarah Ruhl’s Dead Man’s Cell Phone before, but I am absolutely thrilled that I got the chance to see it. Not only did the actors do a superb job performing a wonderful story, but, there were a couple very positive references to letterpress printing that I do not often see in works of art.

What Is Modern Wedding Etiquette?
Debrett's Explain..
The wedding season is upon us and here at Debrett's we are frequently asked: what is modern wedding etiquette? Etiquette is constantly evolving and many traditions and conventions don't fit comfortably into the wedding day. Many brides and grooms are throwing the rulebook out of the window in the desire to have the wedding day that they want, rather than one that convention created.
Does this mean that…

So recently I was at a Recession Bride's Workshop, where one of the couples there were the hosts of The Broke-Ass-Bride and during the seminar we began talking about photographers. Dana started to share on how their photographer was holding a contest to give away a wedding package. This was something I had thought about in the past but never knew how I would lay it out. Well I got to work the following Monday and started talking to my Co-Worker Paul Manke, an amazing photographer, and he gave…

Your sister/brother/best friend is getting married, and it’s time to plan them a big patry. An ordinary night out just won’t do its time for a road trip! There are plenty of great options to make some major memories. Girls, how about a pampering bachelorette weekend. Guys, how does a golfing weekend sound? Of course there's always Vegas, the ultimate party haven for boys and girls, with more clubs and casinos than you can try in one weekend. For more information on these great getaways contact:…

I covered this
beautiful wedding recently at Jamaica’s famous Port Royal near the historic Fort Charles. Claire and Douglas is by far one of the most photogenic couple I have ever
photographed. The following are a couple of images from this most enjoyable shoot.
