Exchanging Gifts On Our Wedding Day

Have you thought about exchanging gifts on your wedding day?

Just after Erin slipped into her wedding gown, her Dad came in with a special delivery from her Groom, Matt. As she opened her gift from Matt, there wasn’t a dry eye in the bride’s room filled with girls in pink dresses. Matt received his gift prior to the ceremony as well and was pleasantly surprised. You will have to watch and see how much of his letter he shared with his buddies.


It doesn’t have to be an elaborate gift shared on the wedding day, but you might consider taking time to write down your thoughts on a card to your future wife or husband…it will be a gift she or he will always treasure. It is also a good idea to let your photographer and videographer know so they can capture these special moments giving you the opportunity to see their reaction. There is just something special about expressing your feelings in writing to the one you love on your wedding day. So start writing your wedding day love letter. ~Mark + Trisha

Pretty in Pink Wedding Reception

For all who love pink, this wedding reception at the Ada Country Club by Jane Kelly Weddings and Parties was absolutely beautiful. Guests arrived to this beautiful floral arrangement (top left) with their place cards awaiting them.  The soft pink lighing from Innovative Event Solutions set the tone for room. With florals and crystals hanging from the trees designed by Hydrangea Floral in Oklahoma City gracing the square tables set for eight guests.  Each chiavari chair tied with a pink sash and a sparkly brooch. I loved the sweetheart table and the flowers on their chairs.

Be inspired & catch every detail of this pink wedding reception decor in the video below.

Destination Wedding + Las Vegas = Adventure

Wishing Monica & Cesar a Happy Wedding Anniversary!

Special thanks to Todd Scott Ballje of Beautiful Day Images for allowing us to share some of his photographs on the blog today for Monica & Cesar’s 1st Wedding Anniversary.

Gaillardia Wedding

Jayme an OSU Cowboy fan found her one true love in Texas (shh he’s an Aggie). They do make a beautiful couple. Jayme had so many personal touches to her wedding, her sister in law singing as she came down the aisle and her brother marrying them. The Gaillardia reception was nothing less than beautiful designed by OKC’s Robyn Martin of The Wedding Belle. Everyone had a great time dancing & cheering for their alma maters too. We wish Jayme & Gainum a lifetime of love & happiness! ~Mark & Trisha VL
