Joan King & Kevin Hills June 6, 2009








As promised...here are some photos I managed to sneak in after setting up the reception at The Commons, Fort McPherson. Joan is active duty Army (SFC) and Kevin is in the Reserves (Sergeant Major) as well as a civil service employee. During the planning process, Joan & Kevin told us that their desire was to 'transform' the space into their "Platinum" reception.. but within their budget. Our dear friend Marina Miller (EventDrapery.com) did a spectacular job creating a romantic touch with the fabric... coordinating the drapery ties with the linens. BBJ Linens - Dee Lane...you ROCK!! The Nile Blue lamours & damask brought everything to the highest level.. accented with the celedon and cornsilk. So all of you will know, when Joan met with Dee Lane & me at their new location, Joan was a bit concerned how we could pull all of her favorite colors together.. at which point, Dee Lane brought out the couture cake overlay.. old gold mesh with all of Joan's colors in a floral pattern.. the tears started gushing... that's when we in this business know we've done it to perfection. The photos show how you can pull together pattern, color and texture to achieve a truly Platinum look on a budget. Our friends at We Rent Atlanta - shout out to Lauren for your help.. provided the chairs; Mark Brickman, owner of Baker's Man did a superb job on the cake. Coordinator was Shujuan Shannon of To Have and To Hold, photographers were Springfield Photography and I cannot emphasize the extraordinary talents of Steve Moore, The Moore Agency.... he works majic with the makeup brush and combs... Joan was stunning...no other words come to mind...just stunning... I almost cried when I saw her at the church! Steve...fantastic!!

Enjoy our photos of the reception site... once the photographers send me images, we will share with all of you.... have a great week!!!
