We Are All In This Together

I can’t remember the last time I had so much fun while learning, & I don’t mean higher learning college type fun, actually enjoying the learning process and calling it fun. This past weekend was so busy – no surprise – we had a wedding in Tampa , took a nap, then headed to…

Laugh Instead

The year is almost over, well may be not but time has flown since January 1st and my family is already talking about Thanksgiving plans, and Special Moments already has several weddings in the works through the end of next year. With all that going on, I was doing a bit of reflecting this morning and…

Flying Solo

Yesterday was my first ST. Petersburg, Florida wedding without Tammy, and I survived! By no means will I or can I take all the credit, because I had the wonderful Melissa at my side. (Thank you Melissa for all your help and coordinating expertise!) None the less, the day was wonderful even with all of it’s heat,…

Plan B, always a Necessity

Soon after moving down here I learned two things, and I learned them real fast (1) it’s always hot (2) summer means rain.

Party Hard

Recent we had a wedding at the Mirror Lake Lyceum and it was beautiful, Simply Savy . In this post I was going to discuss some of the history of the lyceum and how the vintage aspects catered to the wedding details but who cares about any of that now! One groomsmen split his pants 15…

Spotlight Vendor: Scotty P the Barber

There is always so much focus on the bride being flawlessly beautiful with goddess like makeup and stunning hair. She has to be picture perfect, every strand of hair secured in its place. But while she is glowing and magnificent, where’s her counterpart and how does he look? All the preparation of beauty and scheduling…

The Face of Determination

FAMOUS. LAST. WORDS. Yeah, it’s fine to put foil in the microwave. One more drink won’t hurt. It’s supposed to make that noise. Hey, watch this (insert dumb action). This looks sturdy enough to hold my weight. Who cares about expiration dates. Of course its safe. AND….. No matter the weather, we are getting married…

Tradition

My mother is a reader and from the womb to bedtime stories she always read to me. Inevitably I picked up the habit and find it to be one of my favorite things to do. In high school I would read up on interesting facts, things my friends deemed as “random information Krystal added to…

Time Bombs

I escorted the bride and her father from the bridal suite to the elevator. Once the doors reopened we made our way to the hotel lobby where the florist pinned the boutonniere on the father. I radioed over to Tammy, who is at the ceremony site, “Package ready for delivery”. Radio static followed by, “Deliver…

Whenever you find something on the web that you want to keep, add it to Pinterest. An addiction is what it is. You could spend hours and hours…
