11.06.10 Reception: Lanham, Maryland

Married: Kristin + Jake

Gorgeous. Gorgeous. Gorgeous!
Winter glam took over the Club at Key Center in Cleveland last weekend as Kristin and Jake--Cleveland natives but now living in Florida--were married on what was quite possibly one of the most frigid days of the year! Kristin was a dream bride for us to work with (and basically one of the sweetest, most thoughtful people I've ever met). She told us what she was looking for and 100% trusted us to do what we do best:) Below, the results. Enjoy! All professional photos by Corey Ann Photography--

a note from the couple:

meg,
thank you so much for everything you've done. you've been such a tremendous help and I could not have done this without you! you've made a raving fan out of me. I cannot believe how stress-free I have been throughout this entire process. I've truly been able to relax and enjoy this time.
thank you again,
love kristin and jacob

This Weekend...

On Thursday, Savvy heads to Cleveland for the wedding of Kristin and Jacob, which we've been working on for about a year now and are very excited about! Look out next week for recaps of their winter glam event, being held at the The Club at Key Center, in downtown Cleveland. We'll also have some teasers of the event later this week. SO many incredible details and vendors!!

Gwen + Endion: Engagement Party

Check out these images from the engagement party of one of my fabulous 2010 couples, Gwen and Endion! Held at Kan Zaman, a vibrant Northeast Ohio Middle Eastern restaurant, there was good food, music, and even a belly dancer as entertainment.

Savvy did decor and provided some personalized elements including a 'couple's quiz' that was at each table setting, and mini white zin wine favors with custom hang tags. We also did some pretty and cost-effective decor using candles, candle sticks and...fuschia, silver and gold christmas ornaments!! The entire vibe totally reflected the couple--who are so fun! Look for their summer wedding next year, and enjoy!

Kmart Flower Girls!

I didn't even know Kmart still existed until a sales associate at Children's Place suggested I look there for tights for my 4-month-old's Halloween costume! And wow was I surprised by the super cute selection of clothing there for little girls! Now, maybe this isn't every Kmart, but the one in my neighborhood is amazing! It led me to further investigate online, and my first thought was confirmed: this is an AWESOME place to look for flower girl dresses with big style on a dime. ESPECIALLY now, around the holidays. Here are some of my favorites! They are all less than $25.
