An Imoni Fav: Erin and Jim
Wednesday, March 03, 2010
Erin and Jim were married at
St. Patrick's Catholic Church and had their reception at the beautifully stunning
Royal Palms Resort. When I first met Erin I knew immediately that we were going to get along really well. She is quite possibly the kindest person I have ever met. She is an elementary school teacher who wells up every time you talk about her sweet little kiddos. She even donated money to children's literacy instead of providing favors for her guests. However, her guests did not go without. They had one heck of a weekend. So much fun that I know these
pictures will not do it all justice. Her and Jim are so in love and I am so excited for their wonderful life together. I am also going to pray that they have little girls that dance just like mommy, because I know Erin would want that (Grammy Peggy too)!
The anticipation...

Suzanne at
Flora Europa did am an amazing job with the flowers!


Robin with
O Grace Photography caught some pretty cute moments. I like this one of the flower girl and her kissing ball. So cute!

And this one of the bride and groom's hands praying.


Erin's dad owns a vintage mercedes. So it was only fitting that the two of them use that as their get away car after the ceremony. The guests were transported by
Ollie the Trolley. A very fun option!

The
Royal Palms made for a gorgeous backdrop to these two gorgeous people.


The guests could not have been more happy for Erin and Jim. It was really sweet! All eyes were glued as they danced their first dance.

Usually when people tell me there are going to be more than a couple of toasts I start to worry. This puts the food service in a flurry and the guests get antsy. However, I am not even kidding you, these were some of the BEST toasts I have ever heard! They were a joy to listen to.

Peggy is an amazing vocalist. She sang at both the wedding and reception. It was truly a wonderful moment.

And I am not even kidding, the dance floor looked like this ALL NIGHT! Thanks to
SKM Entertainment for providing such killer music and fun!

It also helped that we gave the ladies a chance to kick off their heels and put on some dancing shoes!

We ended the night with sliders, mini grilled cheese, sweet potato and regular french fries. The food energy along with the delicious coffee bar allowed for the party to go on and on.
I loved reliving this night. All the guests were very fun to be around. The wedding party was great to work with and the bride, groom and their families were just salt of the earth good people. I wish them nothing but the best because they were seriously the best to work with!! Hugs Erin!! Happily ever after to you and Jim!

An Imoni Fav: Kevin and Tasha
Saturday, February 20, 2010
We just loved these two! Tasha and Kevin were married at a private residence in North Scottsdale. It was an amazing home and Gretchen did an amazing job designing all the details. Tasha loves blue and Kevin was extremely open to all of our crazy ideas. It made for one of the best planning experiences we have ever had. Not to mention the fact that they both are just so darn adorable. The house looked great, thanks to
Flora Europa. And the night was a blast, thanks to
SKM Entertainment. Here are some great images captured by the very talented and super sweet
Keri Doolittle.

Tasha is just stunning!
I just love these two!
The escort cards were simply the cutest things ever! Tied to a sucker and stuck in jelly bellies, guest got a sweet treat as they looked for their table.
We tented the side of the house, but only on three sides so people could enjoy the beauty of the yard and cool night. The white backdrop was perfect for the amber and blue uplighting!
The cake was adorable!
There were candles everywhere. I just love this shot! Although it doesn't give the decor justice. It was so pretty...

An Imoni Fav: Angela and Mark
Thursday, February 04, 2010
Angela and Mark had an amazing December wedding. I too was a December bride so my heart especially fills with joy over winter nuptials. Angela and Mark were married at Mark's childhood home in Scottsdale. They actually live in California. Mark is a lawyer and Angela is a nurse. And let me tell you, if I ever had to be in the hospital, I would want Angela at my side. She is absolutely the sweetest thing I have ever met. I seriously have never been hugged so hard, thanked so much, or smiled so often around anyone. She is a truly joyful spirit! Plus she is as obsessed with
Style Me Pretty and
Save on Crafts as I am. Love it! And Mark, he is really just a class act and very good at, well, everything! I can only imagine how detailed he would be if he was over a case. I am so excited for them both. I will just have to find something to fill my time now that the emails have stopped flowing... Here are some pictures, provided my
Mark Cafiero of
Cafiero Photgraphers, of their beautiful day.












Lots of love for you two! Mu-ah!!
