I Love Presents! And cookies, and cake and...

...if Cinemacake wasn't so good a making Films, they could go into PR! I picked up the mail yesterday - which is usually kinda sad...bills, junk mail, you know what I mean. But there was a little package this time. Hmm. I don't know anybody in Chalfont. So imagine when I cracked that baby open and two of my favorite things were inside - Pastry and Cinemacake!

That's right - a little treat from Dave and Sheryl. Perfectly formed, not a single one broken, with each of our logos on it Butter Cookies!

Now, as a company with 'cake' (another one of my food groups) in their name - you might have thought I would have said they should be Bakers. But they would have had to duke it out with Kim at Park Avenue Pastries. And really - if we all just let people do what they do best, the world would be a better place. Kim is amazing. Great ideas, great sense of style and most important - tasty (cookies that is!) There is information on her website regarding the fresh factor and it is suggested that we "enjoy them within two months of receiving them." I practically fell off the couch laughing, but another one of those buttery treats would have been in jeopardy - no way these babies are making it through the weekend!

Thank you Dave & Sheryl. Always a pleasure! Thank you Kim, I look forward to working with you soon!

Save the Date: AMC Youth Planning Showcase | 3.13.2011

I met Ann Marie Casey at Jacob Berger's Bar Mitzvah and we have been running into each other a lot lately! She was the families photographer for the day (check out the event!) I am so excited that she invited me to be a part of her first Youth Planning Party on March 3, 2011 from 12 to 3 p.m. at her new studio space in Ardmore. Giant Bridal/Mitzvah Expo style events just aren't my style and I 'm glad to report not Ann Marie's either.

I hope you are to, RSVP today to AMC (610) 642-1890. There is free parking, Free Admission and some rockin' door prizes to boot!

I am going to be in great company too. In addition to Ann Marie showcasing her great new space and fabulous body of work we will be joined by: Invitations of Distinction, Z Event Group, All Around Entertainment, Bredenbeck's Bakery! Come check us out!

Winter Showcase at The Please Touch Museum | February 24, 2011

I love working at the Please Touch Museum and we are pleased to announce they are having their Winter Open House on  February 24, 2011! It's not just for kids - Hamilton Hall is gorgeous for a wedding reception and cocktails in the Carousel Room are stunning!. Come check out the venue this Friday and check out the decor possibilities. RSVP to Kim@maxandmecatering.com. See you there!

John and Nora

Here are some delightful images that have come in for John and Nora. John had so many sweet surprises...Nora loves her dogs and one of the little guys was part if the big day. He surprised Nora by bearing the band of gold!

 

I got the above images from the Bride and Groom - but I do believe the Photo credit goes to the very talented Spark Photography! Check out other weddings we have in common or more of their work at: http://www.sparkphotography.com

Stacie and Zach | October 23, 2010 Update Pictures!

Stacie and Zach got their pictures back and shared a few...they had so many great details! They picked this community garden for their "first look." So appropriate since all of their inspiration images during our consultation were fruit, veggies and shots they took from a Farmer's Market!

Stacie had a sweet little secret note for Zach to kick off their day - and then they were swinging...literally! Zach is so swank and Mad Men like!

Stacie knew she wanted bright green Fuji mums for her bridesmaids, so we built on that and her aubergine color pallet - I added a touch of Rosemary to her bouquet for a bit of good luck. It has been used as a symbol of remembrance and fidelity in weddings for centuries....and so it continues.

The ceremony and reception were at the NCC, and they walked in to wine and moss toned linens, with centerpieces that were practically built from the Farmer's Market!

Hanna's Bat Mitzvah | IVC 1.15.11

I always enjoy working at the Independence Visitor Center (IVC) in the Liberty View Ballroom. I think it is one of those hidden treasures. It has both indoor and outdoor experiences for your guests and you can choose from two fantastic caterers: Gourmetro or Max and Me Catering.

Hannah celebrated her Bat Mitzvah at the gorgeous Rodeph Shalom Synagogue and rocked out her Reception at the IVC. Her mom is a graphic designer so she personalized all of her daughters invitations, table numbers and signs with sketches and drawings that Hannah did herself.

This girl loved color so that was her "theme" per say... Hot pink, orange, red all liked together with a bright chartreuse green...the room was transformed! Hannah's sketches were enlarged and used as table runners down the center of the 'Kids' tables.

 The Kids area and the Adult tables were divided by the dance floor that had tons of lanterns overhead.

The adults had two styles of centerpieces. One to connect to the bright green of the kids and tall trees with hanging Gerberas to connect with outside and Hannah's botanical like sketches.

 

(Thank you Persico Photo for such great detail shots!)

Wish Upon a Wedding | Top of the Tower 1.31.11

We thought we would kick off the month of love with some big LOVE of our own (statue that is!)

Campbell Studios was a proud local sponsor for the launch of the Philadelphia Chapter of "Wish Upon a Wedding" hosted at the Top of the Tower at 3 Logan Square.

WUW provides weddings and vow renewals to couples facing terminal illness or other serious life-altering circumstances, regardless of sexual orientation. Often, couples facing such situations do not have the energy, time, money, or resources needed to plan their wedding. This organization takes care of all the details, offering couples a chance to relax and enjoy a very special day while surrounded by the love of their closest family and friends.

There were lots of great sponsors from the industry there including Cupcakes Gourmet...

and I need to find out who donated these little pieces of twisted love!

While saying we look forward to being called upon to fulfill a wish would be bitter sweet - we will be honored to be a part of  making someones day filled with beauty and love.

Oooh baby its cold outside...but it was warm at the NCC!

I have done weddings with Cliff in the past - but last minute he was unable to attend so photographer Ann Marie Casey came in to save the day! I was so glad she could jump in and capture the table setting details. It was so cool too, she was taking these shots when the sun had already gone down but she got such great views from the windows. Beautiful! Here are just a few, but there were so many great ones. Check out the side show to the right for more!
