Charleston Bridal Show by Elite Events

Monday, February 16th, 2009

Here are some of the photos from the Southern Bridal Show by Elite Events at the Charleston Area Convention Center.

The layout of our booth was pretty much the same as our previous bridal show with a few minor variations. We had an additional bigger table so we were able to do much more with the space.

Cedar Lodge Baptist Church, Thomasville, North Carolina wedding

Wednesday, February 27th, 2008

Just came back from a Thomasville, North Carolina wedding. This is the first wedding coming into the very busy 2008 wedding season.

The wedding ceremony and reception was held in Cedar Lodge Baptist Church .  It was a beautiful day, but very cold.  I lost my voice in the middle of the wedding, even though I wasn’t speaking much.

Here is the gorgeous bride.

The bride threw the bouquet but the wind was so strong that it pretty much didn’t go anywhere.
