Modern, Citrus-Themed Wedding in Pennsylvania

Posted by Caitlin on Nov 02, 2012

Natalie & Numa 

October 7

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 

~~~~~~~~

Q & A with the Bride:

1. What was the one thing about your venue that made you know it was the one?

It reminded me of a NYC loft–Numa and I are originally from New York, and we wanted a NYC chic, modern feel. The brick walls and tall windows really impressed us. We had visited three other venues in that same day, but the minute we walked into Tendenza, we knew we had found the perfect WOW factor!

2. Which four details from your wedding were your favorites?

1. I loved my dress! I didn’t want the night to end because I want to take it off.

2. My florists did such an AMAZING job with the ceremony and reception centerpieces.

3. We had 16×20 engagement pictures on easels all over the ceremony and reception.

4. I also loved Numa’s tuxedo! He looked so handsome! I remember walking down the aisle toward him, and I felt so lucky!

3. Give us the one moment from your wedding day that you cannot stop thinking about.

It’s so hard not to say the whole day! But I remember the moment I had to say my vows–that moment was electrifying. I felt every word in my entire being. It was really special, especially to see Numa cry. I knew he felt it too.

Q & A with the Bride & Groom: 

1. Which three details from your wedding were your favorites?

1. The cocktail area overlooking the ocean.

2. The decoration of the buffet, especially the fruit cascade being the highlight.

3. Having the photobooth for our guests to enjoy. 

2. If you could offer one piece of advice for other couples planning their wedding, what would it be?

Bride’s advice: On the day of your wedding, tell yourself that no matter what happens, enjoy the moment and not let the mishaps ruin your day.

Modern 1920s-Themed Destination Wedding in Costa Rica

Posted by Caitlin on Sep 06, 2012

Johanna & Kevin

April 15

Playa Herradura, Costa Rica 

~~~~~~~~

Q & A with the Bride:

Which three details from your wedding were your favorites?

1. Our guests, who traveled so far to be with us. 

2. The location-Costa Rica is absolutely breathtaking. 

3. Our photographers-they did an amazing job capturing every last detail. Some pictures captured moments that could have been missed within the blink of an eye. 

Give us one moment in your wedding that you can’t stop thinking about?

I can’t stop thinking about the entire weekend.  A destination wedding allowed for us to spend quality time with our friends and family.  We didn’t have to cram everything into four or five hours.  We had days to create memories.  It was an unforgettable experience, and we wouldn’t have done it any other way.

Britney & Ben

June 23

Lafayette, Indiana

~~~~~~~~

Q&A with the Bride:

Which three details from your wedding were your favorites?

There were so many things we loved about our wedding but three things that stood out the most to me were our Unity Painting, the Mad Lib games I created for the guests, and the guest book tree that my husband drew. (I also loved my dress and his bowtie!)

If you could offer one piece of advice for other couples planning their wedding, what would it be?

Be sure to choose a color palette that is readily available! We had difficulty finding things in grays and yellows throughout the planning process. This was our biggest “obstacle.”

Give us the one moment in your wedding day you can’t stop thinking about.

We decided to do a “first look”  and have all our photos taken prior to the ceremony. The time that we got to spend alone, in front of the camera, is the part of the day I cherish most.
