We had a blast coordinating Greta and Tim’s day back in 2012! They are such a chill, organized, happy couple and their details were awesome. Plus, we love whenever there is a puppy involved! From the skee ball to the disco ball, this was definitely an event less ordinary. Shanna at S. Photography & Styling captured the day beautifully.

Every wedding is filled with loving friends and family who are excited to celebrate with the couple of the evening, that is true. But some weddings, somehow, are filled with extra love, even more excitement than usual, and it's so intense that you can feel it in the room. That was Emily and Ryan's wedding. They are a great couple, have been together a long time, and their people just could not have been happier to celebrate their union. The couple was all smiles throughout the day, even when the bridal party forgot their flowers in the fuss of getting from the cab to the venue untouched by the heavy rain. The AELO team threw some new bouquets together in time for the ceremony, and the rest of the day went off without a hitch!

Flashback to our first fully planned wedding! We loved working with Sharon and Ted while they lived in Seoul and New York respectively. The event was decorated beautifully by one of our favorite florists, Sinisa at the James was incredible, and working with Chad is always a blast!

Sometimes, we meet these couples who are so beautiful, so smart, and so happy that they don't seem real - it feels like we've stepped into a movie. Jenna and JP are both doctors, and they're absolutely adorable. Jenna brought in parts of her Indian heritage to their laid back event at Salvage One, where they got married in the garden outside and then partied the night away. Their many personal touches, loads of old family photos, and delicious food made this one of our favorite weddings of 2013.

Flashback to our last wedding of 2010, a unique and beautiful expression of two people very much in love with each other, and it doesn’t get much better than that for us. Julia + Andy were married on December 4th, 2010 at Prairie Production. The venue looked gorgeous, the band was rockin’ and the guests had more energy than they knew what to do with - it was a great time!
