Doreen & Alex: Dancing In September

We shared our Dancing In September couple's engagement photos back in July, as part of our Weekly Wedding Eye-Candy series, and now the photos of their wedding have arrived!

This evening ceremony and reception was held at The Imperia in Somerset, New Jersey (a venue The Bridal Party spent LOTS of time at during the 2009 wedding season). Even though it rained off and on throughout the day, it was a beautiful event, and we wish Doreen & Alex the very best.

We're excited to share a few of the best moments of their wedding day below, thanks to so.b.it.art photography.

Rashana,
Love the colors and composition that so.it.art photography has captured in this selection of photos. Especially the first 6 are stunning. By the way, hopr your Thanksgiving vacation goes well and we look forward to you posting again soon.
On a personal note, I run a wedding blog and would be interested in exchanging links with you on your blog (like "New Jersey Wedding Planners"?). Let me know how you want to be linked and I can add you by tomorrow.
I also have a quick business related question. Friends of mine over at Exclusively Weddings are interested in being listed on your blog under "Other Blogs & Sites I Frequent!" or even possibly an advertorial.
They can pay a one time fee for your trouble by Paypal. If not interested in that they could also provide a helpful article on wedding invitations for your website. I'm sure their open to any other ideas you may have too.
Look forward to hearing back from you!!

Sincerely,
Leslie Jenkins

"Farm Sweet Farm" 1st Birthday Party

My husband and I celebrated our baby twins, Jonah & Gia's, 1st birthday with a "Farm Sweet Farm" party last weekend. The party was held at our home (aka The Anderson Farm ) and our closest family and friends excitedly attended. Honestly it's still difficult for us to believe a full year has gone by since they entered our lives, but one thing was clear from the beginning --- we had a lot to celebrate and we intended to do just that! Everyone had loads of fun; they would've partied until the cows came home if we let them. And since the guests of honor LOVE animals, the theme proved to be absolutely perfect for them and their guests. To most, I'm known for planning amazing weddings and bridal celebrations by means of THE BRIDAL PARTY , so it was really a lot of fun to step outside of my comfort zone and show off my versatility and range. I can't deny, this was FUN! I'm still quite "giddy" about it all. * * * * * * * * * * INVITA

scam (skām): A fraudulent business scheme

Y esterday, I received my first wedding scam attempt (guess my latest marketing and advertising efforts are starting to work). I received an email from an "Irish" bride-to-be whose fiance was offered a job in the U.S. and needed help planning a small wedding in New Jersey. I vaguely remembered hearing of certain swindle attempts on wedding vendors (especially photographers and videographers), so my radar peaked immediately, however, I didn't jump to any conclusions right away. I responded to the email, drew up a preliminary proposal, quoted cost of service and submitted an invoice for payment. Nonetheless, when it became apparent that the bride-to-be and her French fiance only intended on mailing a cashier's check, I knew right away what I was dealing with ... a scam! I happen to know that international cashier's checks are not fully validated for 90 days. So even though the check may clear at first, if found to be phony, the money is later deducted. I must say, i

Aidan & Jonathan: Enchanted Forest

We shared snapshots of our Enchanted Forest wedding just four days ago and somehow, SOMEWAY, professional photos became available last night! (an unbelievable world record ... calling Guinness after the holiday) As mentioned before, we were brought on to plan and execute this wedding just 3 months out, at which time 90% of the vendors and service providers had not been selected. But I must say, we couldn't have had a better team of professionals bring this event to life if we'd started a year ago. The ceremony was held in the evening on the outdoor patio of Stone House at Stirling Ridge in Warren, NJ. On this brisk mid-November night, our teams successfully achieved a loving and warm ambiance by having clear tent wall covered by swags of 21-foot long fabric hung on the outer perimeter of the space. This treatment allowed for the bride's dream of being married near nature but also kept the couple's beloved friends and family comfortable. A blooming birch-b
