This weekend we had the privilege to work with Mary and Billy. I met Mary, Billy and Mary’s Mother Kathy at the Feburary Bridal Show and have been involved in planning their special day ever since. It is hard to believe that it is already October and I will no longer be working with Mary and Kathy. I have loved every minute that I have gotten to share with Mary and her wonderful family. They are such a joy and it is no wonder why Mary is such an amazing person.
Mary and Billy are so in love, and there were several times throughout the rehearsal dinner and wedding that we all had tears in our eyes. We will have their love story listed here when we get the professional photos, in the meantime here are some fantastic pics of some decor that my brother, Nick, snapped for us. Enjoy!

We have been very busy this fall with some of the most fantastic couples and weddings. Danielle and Kris have been so incredible to work with and I will miss them now that their perfect day has gone off so perfectly. They have just returned from their romantic honeymoon in Jamaica! I must say I am very jealous. I wish them all of the happiness in the world.
Always Planned took care of the reception decorating and management. The bride came up with all of the decor, the amazing cake was from Caramanda’s, linens from Purdon’s and catering by Bake-My-Day. The cake was stunning and tasted just as delicious as it looked. We almost did not want to cut it! Professional Pics to follow.

I am so in love with the blog over at Southern Weddings Magazine. One of my fav photographers – Todd Pellowe, was recently featured, and besides that they always have some of the most stylish, romantic and completely southern weddings I have ever seen. I am thinking that one of the fabulous weddings designed by Always Planned should be featured at some pont…. 
Until then, check out this fantastic yellow and black themed wedding. Not only is the bride stunning, but the colors are totally hot together! Check out more images from the photographer, DrewB.

With the economy is such a scary state at the moment it is hard to ask anyone to fork over hundreds of dollars to be a part of your wedding party. Let’s face it, most of the time your bridesmaid will never wear that beautiful gown again and the tux rental is just that – a rental. I think we are all feeling the brunt of the economy woes, why not be considerate of your bridal party, when it comes to their expenses.
This fun dress came straight from Amazon and is a steal for only $67.00. It is also available in several fantastic colors!
Pair it with these dyeable shoes for only $50 any your bridesmaid is now spending less for her dress and shoes than she would on that designer gown at the bridal salon. And really, who would know she only paid $117 for her dress and shoes?
Instead of a tuxedo rental, why not check out the vintage suits I blogged about last week?
Still cheaper than a tuxedo rental and if you go with a neutral your usher or groomsmen can actually use it again. How is that for a budget bridal party!
