Table Numbers- Original Touches

I just completed our December 31, 2012 wedding's table numbers and I must say that we did a pretty awesome job!
In this design, we took the engagement photo session of Julie and Edwin with No Ordinary Love photographer- Tatiana Cohen, and simply printed them out on photo paper. the numbers were added to give a little pop. On the back we also stenciled the number so as to have an overall effect and view for their guest. And you all know I love the bling- so we incorporated the color of their wedding and beaded it through with bling!
Table Number- with Bride and Groom's engagement picture on it.
Not to be confused with Escort cards; which has every guests' name individually and table numbers, the Table numbers, besides being oh so very helpful,  are very important to the overall look and feel of any elegant wedding. I say this because your wedding day should encompass all the elements that reflect you and your spouses ideas, energy and feelings about one another. This little detail really sets the tone for so little money.

On the creativity side- there is no limit- so long as it represents you both. Go wild! If you like ballet and he likes sports find a melding of the two. The really popular ones are the ones where the bride and groom have pictures of the themselves at the age of the table number. Very cute; I like more for a formal babyshower or birthday party... but none the less it represents.

I need a diamond that I can find in the sand

So on my many conversation with fabulous bride, Julie, I had noticed that she does not wear her engagement ring. She explained that she works in the OR and that having jewelry on is a no-no, so she rather not risk it. Completely understandable.

She begins to tell me that when it was first discussed about  getting her engagement ring- she advise Edwin that she wanted a ring with a diamond of a size that "if I were to loose it in the sand I could find it!"

She said "I don't want, nor deserve a speck of dust on my finger!"
Hilarious. I was cracking up and still am!
Gotta love her Aquarian nature!


So during their engagement shoot at Bill Baggs State Park, the beautiful ring came out! With diamonds all the around like a Infinity band and a beautiful diamond in the middle- I am sure, that should it ever, accidentally get lost in the sand that they will be able to find!
 Julie (Aquarius) and Edwin (Sagittarius); are a fabulous couple with Bahamian and Haitian decedent. She works in the operations room of a South Florida hospital and he for the Miami Dolphins. He also heads a charity organization, which helps inner city youths called IMPACT.
Their wedding will be taking place at The Miami Beach Botanical Gardens, December 31,2012.

The Coast Guard and The Beauty

Here is a fabulous couple...so in love. So fabulousy in love; full of fun, style, and class.
Rachel and I met through a former bride of mine- Dr. Diaz-Roberts and I could tell that she had alot of things she wanted to get accomplished.

She seemed to know exactly what she wanted and what she needed me to do.
As an avid runner and exerciser- typical of her Sagitarian sun sign she had a full plate- especially with work, the wedding, excercising, a fiance and school, she had begun wondering how she was going to get it all done.

I knew things had to get done and I would have to be there each step of the way to make sure all of her details were attended to. But first, I had to catch her. Shoot! I should have stayed in the excercise program.

We checked her list and with my to do list, we matched up any missing parts. Next on the list the engagement pictures. It looks like I can check this off the list.

I highly recommend, to have your engagement pictures with the photographer you intend to higher to take your wedding pictures.
It is the precursor to what you can except during your wedding. It literally breaks any apprehension you may have.Your photographer and you will have a better understanding of how you like to look and your style. And most importantly if they can capture it.

Rachel and Eric went with a great photography studio "BeYouImages.com" and Jess took some truly amazing pictures. She credits Rachel for the concept and background choices and as you can see, they worked very well together.
Yup I think their styles match.
Now on to the wedding



This love- this passion- is....timeless.
 




One of my favs. They look so classic!

This a NOVO kind of LOVE!
