Real Wedding of Sara+Adam

This event is considered my Wedding of the Year.  Sara, the bride, was such a pleasure to work with.  She asked a lot of questions seeking my advice, and was very organized.  She had a lot of props and details at the reception, but had clear directions as to how to assemble and placement on the floor plan. Ceremony Site: Grand Basin in Forest Park Reception Site:  World's Fair Pavilion Catering:  Orlando Gardens Photographer:  Megan Thiele Studios Shuttles: GEM Transportation Flowers: The Special Event Florist - Tina Barrera DJ and Lighting:  Millennium Productions Bakery: McArthur's 

Windy Day in May

Thank go...

Tiffany and Corey have this partnership and decided NOW was the time to make their love LEGAL in their eyes and the eyes of their family and friends - and the government - who, as we know make life easier for taxes, health insurance, and more. Tiffany saw my campaign on Pinterest  and she wanted to have the elopement in Forest Park at the World's Fair Pavilion at a Cakeway to the West . World's Fair Pavilion in Forest Park As you can see, this is a great location for an elopement or renewal of vows for any couple looking for a unique way to celebrate their love. TIP: Be careful when choosing a Cakeway to the West #stl250 because ...
