Another happy bride sends her thanks

One of our autumnal brides, Amy Bledsoe, sent this email today...pictures were posted earlier

"Larry,  Well it will be two months tomorrow since Bill and I got married.  We did not get back until October 23rd from our honeymoon and it has been a world wind every since. 

I can't thank you enough for all your hard work.  You gave me the WOW factor I was looking for.  Everyone has raved about the flowers and the reception hall.   I look forward to working with you in the future and hope to keep in touch.   Kristin is working on a slide show of the wedding.  I will forward once we complete.

I hope you have a wonderful holiday.

Sincerley,
Amy Bledsoe-Gmaz"


This is why we do it folks... really!!!!

B'nai Mitzvah weekend

The Horwitz family are celebrating a B'nai Mitzvah today & tomorrow...their son and daughter are the celebrents.  Congregation Beth Tefillah tonight and for tomorrow's Kiddush... everything will have a South Afircan theme, as the family is orginally from there.  Earthy colors from the linens and the florals - natural and organic.  Saturday evening, at Congregation Beth Jacob in their Heritage Hall will see the big party... Pewter, deep garnet red and Black linens will work with community minded centerpieces.  The family wanted to do something for the less fortunate, so we came upwith an idea that pleased them; cylinders filled with assorted nuts and fruit... topped with flowers.  Now we're not talking the sliced fruit and whole fruit in water...that's been done to death!!!  Fresh produce topped with flowers... all to be collected at the end of the evening and distributed by the family.

Mazel Tov!!!

Stephanie & Tim October 17, 2009 Big Canoe GA

Just recieved this from Stephanie via Twitter....  thought we'd share.  Stephanie is the editor for 'Get Married' magazine... we were contacted during the summer to possibly provide the bridal bouquet...those of you who know us (and for those who are thinking about hiring us)...we do all the florals...  The challange:  we already had 2 booked for that Saturday, one in Callaway Gardens.  No problem, we used a courier service to deliver to Big Canoe.   As you can see from the movie preview, Stephanie & Tim were a joy to work with!  Cannot wait to see the entire movie and the photos in the magazine next year.  Congratulations to you both...

Caitlin Davies & Jeff Campbell October 17, 2009

Another of our 3 weddings & receptions on Saturday October 17th... also scheduled for outside - Caitlin & Jeff decided to weather it out under the tent at Druid Hills Golf Club... even though the wind was a'howlin!!  According to the photographers (Picture This!) the tent posts were jumping up and down and caused a bit of a fright!  Nonetheless, they didn't flinch and completed the ceremony.  We were surprised the rose petals didn't fly away..glad they didn't.
Becky Warfield Graham, Banquests & Catering Manager (and one of our former brides) did a wonderful job with her staff accomodating the large number of guests in the ballroom.
