Tonisha & CeAndre: Beginning of a Beautiful Forever

Our A Beautiful Forever couple were married a couple of weeks ago just outside Philadelphia at Aloft Mt. Laurel, one of Southern New Jersey's sassiest venues.  When we first met with the bride and her mom the only detail decided upon was the date, so we worked together for over a year concepting and planning an experience their loved ones would never forget.  Every aspect, every vendor, every detail was researched and selected with care.  Thus, when we shared Tonisha and CeAndre's engagement photos in January all were extremely anxious for the anticipated wedding day to come to fruition.  Well ... mission accomplished!

Again, on what was officially the last day of Summer, our team successfully achieved the modern and romantic ambiance the bride and groom set out to create.  Hues of Malibu blue, grey and white took center stage.  Our team designed and executed decor for the entire event, which included florals!  The ceremony space was draped in flowing white fabric and featured a gorgeous specialty aisle runner, 6-ft crystal towers with billowing plumes atop, a live jazz trio plus a spiritual dance performance.  After the exchange of vows and as cocktail hour came to a close, guests perused a larger-than-life illuminated seating chart which featured the bride and groom's engagement photo.  Upon entering the ballroom, more romantic details were revealed such as 2 styles of towering centerpieces, an 18-person head table, specialty linens, specialty lighting and a 3-tiered, damask patterned wedding cake.  Finally at dusk, the bride and groom invited their guests to join them in releasing wish lanterns in memory of cherished loved ones who had previously passed away.  Overall, it was a love-filled beginning to a beautiful forever.

We wish Tonisha and CeAndre a lifetime of love and happiness and it's our pleasure to share some of the best moments of their wedding day below, thanks to Rashad Pleasant Photography.

"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

New Beginning, New Life...Newlyweds, find your StyleScope!

Surprisingly I'm not ashamed to admit how much I adore shopping at HomeGoods (known for being packed with an ever-changing array of one-of-a-kind, and unexpectedly incredible finds from all over the world). There's just something about perusing their aisles and discovering those diamonds in the rough . So, to my husband's dismay, I am frequently "HomeGoods happy"...even recently taking advantage of an amazing sale on Lacoste bath linens! (yep, still somewhat giddy about it) Anyhow, as many of our readers are soon-to-be married or newly married, you'll have to take on the task of figuring out how your new home will be decorated. Unless you're a professional decorator, it may be somewhat difficult to figure out how yours and your hubby's styles will fuse, so just for fun take the HomeGoods StyleScope quiz . Find out what your decorating style really is and note the really great tips that will help you make the best decor decisions. Let's face
