What an INCREDIBLE evening! Ross and Robyn (a theater friend) came to us and said that they wanted a Friday the 13th wedding, we were onboard IMMEDIATELY. Their gothic vision was brought to life with their perfect choices from the flowers to the table settings to That Dress. Could you die?! They had a super sweet ceremony followed by a delightful cocktail hour, and then the DANCING started. R+R kicked it off with a beautiful choreographed dance to “Til I Found You” and then the floor was PACKED all night! Guests enjoyed the delicious cake a great tunes until the toast and sparkler exit. And it didn’t rain!

All in all, Ross + Robyn’s vision for the day was unique and turned out beautifully. We wish them the best and know they are going to have a long and happy life together.

Congratulations, kids!

AELO Alumni | Almog + Gunthar, 10/7/23

VENUE: THE DAWSON | PHOTOGRAPHY: THIS IS FEELING | HAIR + MAKEUP: APPEASE2YOU | FLORALS: FLOWERS FOR DREAMS | DJ: STYLE MATTERS | TRANSPORTATION: SIGNATURE

These two lovely folks had a vision for their wedding and worked hard to make it come to life. Their attention was on full display.  The warm, earth tones, creamy floral, gorgeous indoor-outdoor venue, and plentiful menu left guests (and us) utterly impressed. Almog and Gunthar made this day completely their own from taking time to sneak away from cocktail hour to run across the street to have a drink and take a picture at their favorite bar to changing into his and her tracksuits and sneakers at the end of the night. 

They were also kind and thoughtful to their guests, making sure there were extra heaters on the chilly October evening, composing individual letters to each of their guests (that also served as their table assignment cards) and ordering so much food that no one went home hungry. It was a beautiful, delicious, and love-filled evening that Almog and Gunthar absolutely deserved. Congratulations on a brilliant wedding day!

It was a day that was truly about the two of them and their love.

Cheers, ya gorgeous kids! We love ya!

What a memorable evening we had with Karen and John! These two are so sweet and fun and their wedding reflected those personalities perfectly. From a show stopping fan dance to “Sisters” from White Christmas performed by the bride’s sisters to the bouncing dance floor (literally— you could feel wood floors move when then dancing got ca-razy), to a server getting down with wedding guests on said dance floor. If Karen and John’s wedding is any indication of how they will spend the rest of their lives, it will be filled with style, fun, and a lot of laughter together.

What to even say about these two cuties! We absolutely loved working with Meghan + Daniel. They are super sweet and kind, had a great vision, and Meghan had so many lists, it made our job so easy! We loved the simple elegance of their day, and we loved that they chowed down on Five Guys after their ceremony. From the venue, to the food, to the band, it was a excellently planned day filled with so much love and laughter.

Congratulations, Meghan + Danny! We know you’ll have a beautiful life (and get a beautiful dog!) together!
