Jane & Eddie - Preceremony

Jane and Eddie were married Saturday, September 12th in downtown Baltimore. They started off their wedding day completely different. While the Bride and her ladies headed to the salon the Groom and his guys headed to the Baltimore Oriole’s Baseball Stadium – Camden Yards for their own private photo shoot with photographer Jen Lowe of JLowe Photos.

 
After the Bride and her ladies were done with hair and makeup they returned to their suite at the Renaissance Hotel to get ready. The room was filled with beautiful bouquets created by the Groom’s Mother Lori.

I think someone is ready to get married…

Sneak Peek - Jane & Eddie

This past weekend was the wedding of our clients Jane & Eddie at the World Trade Center in downtown Baltimore. Their original color scheme was cobalt blue but we added Kelly Green and gold accents to brighten the palette for this time of year. Here is a sneak peek of how the décor for the reception turned out.
Square cocktail tables dressed in green linen accented with cobalt blue votives.

Gold Bichon linens were placed on the guest tables accented with cobalt blue napkins

The cake table and escort card table were dressed in cobalt blue pintuck linen.

We will post more photos soon and we’ll definitely post the professional pictures once we receive them.

Eboni & Nathaniel's Reception

When guests entered the foyer for cocktail hour they retrieved their escort cards from a table with a huge curly willow centerpiece with hanging votive candles. Once formal photos were done it was time to do the introductions in the mansion’s ballroom. They entered to the ever so popular Let’s Get Married – Remix. The couple went right into their first dance to So Beautiful by Musiq. They lead their 150 guests into the tent for dinner. Their guest tables included high and low centerpieces, CD favors and menu cards (created by the Bride). Later in the evening their DJ did a great job keeping the dance floor packed. In addition to serving wedding cake Eboni and Nate also did a candy buffet. At the end of the evening we passed out sparklers with personalize matchbooks to their guests for the couple’s grand exit. The couple honeymooned in the Bahamas.

Eboni & Nathaniel's Ceremony

Although it poured down raining earlier in the day, the weather cleared just in time for the couple’s outdoor wedding. They held their ceremony in front of the gazebo at Grey Rock Mansion. They had a large group of friends and family in their wedding party to stand up for them as they exchanged vows. Their 9 bridesmaids (including maid/matron) wore brown bridesmaids dresses in varying styles and lengths and they carried blue hydrangea bouquets. Their 7 groomsmen (including Best Man) wore tan linen suits with a brown striped tie and coral rose boutonnières. Their 2 flower girls wore tiffany blue dresses with a brown sash and carried pomander balls instead of a flower basket. Their 2 ring bearers and broom bearer wore tan suits with tiffany blue bow ties. Yes you counted correctly…they had a wedding party of 21 but they were such a fun group.

The bride who wore a gorgeous, strapless Maggie Sottero beaded gown was escorted down the aisle by both her parents to No One Else by Amiel Larrieux. Their guests cheered as they made their way up the aisle after being pronounced husband and wife. After the ceremony the couple took formal photos with their wedding party and parents while their guest were directed inside the mansion for cocktail hour.

Congratulations Eboni & Nathaniel

Eboni & Nathaniel (Nate for short) were married during an evening ceremony at Grey Rock Mansion on Saturday. Although the weather called for rain all day we were fortunate that the rain held off, the sun came out and the couple was able to wed outside in front of the gazebo.

We added coral to their Tiffany blue and brown wedding color scheme to give it a fresh look for summer.
