Lacey and Rodney Leon

The Wedding of Lacey and Rodney was such a joy to be apart of from the planning stages to the very end of a wonderful evening. Lacey and Rodney are Red Raiders all the way and loved designing each part of their wedding. Lacey and her mom designed the invitations themselves along with a beautiful program to compliment their theme. Beautiful wreaths adorned the entrance of Royal Lane Baptist Church created by The Garden Gate Floral.
Make up artist Matiee Miles was Lacey's one and only choice for her wedding day look, for she and her bridal party. The hair and make-up party was kicked off with snacks and bubbly in a suite at The Adolphus Hotel.
 Photographers Mike and Rejana Krause of Bludoor Studios captured each and every detail of the wedding and reception.   
 The Tower Club was where the dancing and incredible menu began, with guidance from catering manager Diane Dobis. The ballroom over-looking the lights of downtown Dallas was enhanced futher by the lighting of ES- Event Solutions.  Brad Litteken, the DJ kept everyone on the dance floor throughout the evening.
Mary King created a beautiful cake for Lacey and surprised Rodney with a Red Raider cake to his delight.
One of the highlights for the guests was Randal Stout's Pic Strip booth with props galore and fun photos for each guest to take home at the end of the evening.
As Lacey and Rodney's guests were gathering for the departure on the street, the couple shared a private last dance. 

The horse drawn carriage was waiting for the couple,  provided by Party Animals Carriage as they ran through a sparkler lit send-off by the guests. All smiles for a perfect ending.

Ravenhill Wedding

I adored my bride Gerri from the moment I met her. Actually she was in two other weddings that I coordinated several years ago,so it was really fun to get to plan with she and Chad.   Wedding day hair and make up began in a suite at The Adolphus Hotel, with make up artist Sidney Cother from Neiman Marcus  and hair stylist Sonia Trevino, both doing their magic to make faces glow and beautiful updo's to last the through out the evening.
Highland Park United Methodist Church was the site where Gerri and Chad shared their wedding vows, followed by an elegant  dinner reception in The Grand Ballroom of the Adolphus Hotel.
Photographer Rebecca Lorrine  and videographer, LaDonna Moore of MyDonna 
Visual Artistry captured the fun filled evening. Gerri and Chad surprised their guest with first dance providing  fast action movements  that had the room filled with  laughter and amazement.  It was a true work of choregraphy. Beyond lighting  created a  magical and warm ambiance with the soft amber lighting that flowed upward to the elegant ceilings. Tru Bone Band was the highlight of the evening providing party music that kept the guest on the dance floor the entire evening. It was  a wonderful day and evening for  Gerri and Chad to share with family and friends.
