Kristen & Kyle.....
What can one say when you have a bride that looks like her and a groom that looks like him other then.. AHHHHHH!!! They will have amazingly gorgeous babies.
Kristen and Kyle have some serious style and I LOVED working with them. It was really difficult trying to pick which photos I would post because they ALL were so amazing. I love when that happens. Cindy Wagner and her team did such a great job with the photography. Working with them made my job so easy. So on with the eye candy..
Courtenay Lambert Florals did all of the flowers for Kristen and Kyle's wedding and I must say she did a freaking awesome job. You will see more of her work below.
The ceremony and reception took place at French House in French Park. We could not have asked for a better day. The flowers were all in full bloom, sun was shining and the temperature was perfect.
Kristen and Kyle created their escort card holder with old corks and twisted wire in the shapes of hearts and flowers. It turned out adorable.
Their cake was made by Jerry's Cheese Cake.. One of my favorites. For the first time ever I had to decorate the cake and let me say that freaked me out. All I could think about was messing that cake up by putting a flower in the wrong spot. It turned out perfect though and tasted soooo good. I loved that she used fabric flowers from an Etsy seller for the cake.
Jeff Thomas did all of the catering and I do not need to say it was done with perfection. I love working with Jeff and his team. They always do a perfect job and are like clock work when it comes to perfection. The food was amazing.
The linens were all rented through me (yes I do linen rentals as well) She choose an eggplant pintuck with a pewter crushed romance runner and napkins.
Each table had a few small arrangements. All in vintage glass, the flowers were so cool and fit the table setting perfectly. The flowers ranged from succulents, to berries to hydrangeas and fiddle ferns and a mess of color in between. They popped really well on the linens.
T-Sly band was soooooo much fun! I had a lot of fun with these guys all night long. They had every guest out dancing through out the entire night.
It is sooooo hard to find a vintage car these days BUT not for my clients. I have a guy who literally has a mad fleet of cars. All types of cars too. I believe he said he has almost 15 different styles of vintage cars to date. The guys is so cool. He dresses like a vintage chauffeur and is always early and just an all around fun guy.

WE LOVE YOU!!!!
Reflecting back on the year I have to say that each and every one of YWBJ's 2009 clients were so awesome. I feel like I am pretty fortunate to get such amazing couple's each and every year. Obviously they are the ones that keep me coming back for more. They give me the inspiration to want to give you, my new clients more. So with that being said, this year I am offering a pretty sweet booking incentive for the 2010 clients!
Starting now, when you book either Day of, Partial Planning, or Full Service Planning, you will receive you choice of complimentary hair or makeup for your wedding day.
You will have the option of having your hair done at the awesome Shane Weber Salon and that does include your trial. You will also receive 20% off any skin care service at the salon as well!
OR
You may choose to have your makeup done by the amazing Chenese Bean. You will receive her blushing bride package and with this option you will also get your trial.
Over the years I have found that brides seem to almost always ask for a hair and/or makeup recommendation. Therefore I think this will be a great way to take at least one thing off of your to-do list and say thank you as well.
This offer will be good through March and is for the bride only.

With 2009 coming close to an end Your Wedding by Jen has been busy with the 2010 goals as well as some smashing new additions for our clients as well as non-clients! For our clients you can expect....
