Leigh & Jared's Wedding

Leigh & Jared during their first dance.

This week we are heading to State College, well Houserville if you want to get technical for the Wedding Ceremony and Reception of Leigh And Jared at Millbrook Marsh Nature Center. 

There had been a threat of rain early in the week, but the forecast changed to sunny skies and what turned out to be very hot and humid. (Mother Nature still playing games in Central PA for some reason, weeks before we had close to 14 inches of rain in 3 days) Because of the heat the ceremony was sped up to get guests out of the sun and into the barn for shade. Ceremony started at 2PM with Leigh walking down the aisle to "Here Comes The Bride". Once the officiant presented the Bride and Groom as Mr & Mrs Taylor, Jared and Leigh walked back up the aisle to "How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You)" by James Taylor.

A family friend who was shooting the wedding took the bride, groom, bridal party, and family for pics while guests were invited to the barn for snacks and drinks provided by Nittany Catering. 

When the bridal returned we brought them inside for the grand entrance. Leigh and Jared took to the dance floor right away for their first dance as husband and wife with "I Don't Want To Miss A Thing" by Aerosmith. This was followed by the father/daughter and mother/son dances before dinner provided also by Nittany Catering. 

After dinner we played the Mr & Mrs Game, only to learn this couple knew a good about each other, and a competition during the dollar dance with Leigh winning but only with a slight edge. When the end of the night rolled around Leigh and Jared danced to "Wonderful Tonight" by Eric Clapton and we wrapped up the night with "Kiss" by Prince.

Congratulations again to Mr & Mrs Taylor!

Angela & Mike's Wedding

Angela & Mike's First Dance Today we are heading to a new wedding venue, at a historic location. Today's wedding is at Penn's Cave! We will be christening the new enclosed pavilion with it's first wedding. The Wedding of Angela and Mike. With every new venue there are bound to be some hiccups along the way and one of the big ones was a date mix-up, forcing the couple to move the wedding to the weekend before they had actually invited everyone to. Still with the power of social media they were able to pull it off. Angela had contacted me via Facebook about her wedding and said she loved what we had to offer but she wasn't sure she could swing the investment. I explained like I always do why the prices are what they are (look for a blog on that later) and told her I would work with her on a budget. We finally were able to agree on a price that worked for both of us. Then came the planning. Angela had a love/hate relationship with our online planning

Lock Haven Boy Scout Troop Holiday Party

Tonight DJ Gigi was helping us out by picking up an event for us in Lock Haven. Stef who is a leader with the Boy Scouts and friends with AJ had contacted us about DJing the party. We weren't available to do it, but after reaching out to DJ Gigi she agreed to do it for us. We are thankful that she was able to pull it off for us and all had a wonderful time.
