The Wedding Show

We had a great day today at the wedding show. Had a chance to visit with so many wonderful, newly engaged brides! A lot of ladies are already coming in, booking 2011 dates. It's amazing to me how far in advance wedding planning needs to be done.

We get asked at every show how we came up with the name Red Shoe. Today, after telling the story several times, we decided I should blog about it. So, I promise to do that soon. It's a great story, rather humorous. Well, at least I think it's humorous... Karon? not so much! More on that, later this week.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by to see us today! We really enjoy the shows. We get a chance to meet so many wonderful people. We are already gearing up for the show in January at the Kato Ballroom so if you didn't get a chance to make today's show, make plans to attend that one.

Thanks again for taking the time to stop by and visit with us today!

Keep watching for that infamous "How we got our name" post. I promise to have that for you later this week!

A wedding worthy of theknot.com

Sara and Dustin's July wedding was beautiful. The little country church, pictures by the lake. ~All dotted with vibrant pinks and oranges. It was the perfect palette for a summer wedding. Every detail was artfully planned. Sara was a stunning bride, Dustin a handsome groom. Could there be a more beautiful couple? Their smiles were infectious from the very start of the day. Together, they made our job very easy!

It's also easy to see why they were chosen as a feature in "my real wedding" on the knot.com. Check it out!! <http://myrealwedding.theknot.com/photo/view/Sara-amp-Dustin039s-Wedding>

A perfect day for a perfect couple

You can see it in their eyes each time they look at each other. Jen and Matt are meant to be together. They smile and their eyes sparkle. Full of a joy that is contagious. Just one of those couples you love to be around. They are going to make their mark on this world. I can't wait to see their story unfold. It'll be an epic! 

Congrats you two and thanks!!!! You're the best!

Rain, Rain, Go Away

Rain on your wedding day is supposed to bring good luck.  I think I can safely say Beth and Kevin will enjoy their share of good luck until their 20th anniversary! 

It poured that day, but oh what wonderful light that gave us! Even though we dealt with rain for most of the three hour shoot, Beth and Kevin were all smiles and willing to let us try just about anything. 

What was supposed to be an outdoor bbq style dinner with an old fashioned barn dance to follow, turned in to an indoor affair. ~And it couldn't have been more beautiful. There were so many lovely personal touches that Beth took such care to create for her wedding day. It was the perfect day, rain or shine!
