Kim & Wes

Kim and Wes (and Mya) tied the knot and became a family of three in a beautifully simple, yet elegant outdoor ceremony! Kim’s daughter was involved in every aspect of this wedding as they truly became a family of three!

Kim’s touches were woven throughout the ceremony and reception with her mom and grandmother providing their very special touches as well!  Grandmother provided all the centerpiece floral arrangement as well as the arrangements out and about the venue for the ceremony and reception.  Her mother provided most of the rest of the décor which included special family mementos! And his mother took care of all the details for a very relaxed and perfect rehearsal dinner for family and friends.

We dodged rain yet again for the ceremony and while it sprinkled just a bit, the rain held off for us!  Mya served as the junior bridesmaid, flower girl and her mom’s maid of honor.  The sweet unity sand ceremony included Mya as an integral part of their new family unit.  And it was a special treat for EBS to get to work with an “old” friend (old meaning I have known her for a long time; our kids went to school together for many years) serving as the minister.

The first dances included a first dance with Wes and Mya and pretty sure there weren’t many dry eyes in the room for that sweet and very special dance.  You know the saying “anyone can be a father but it takes a very special man to be a daddy” and Wes is certainly that special man for Mya!

Molly and Aaron

To say that family pulled together for Molly and Aaron’s wedding was a bit of an understatement.  We have truly never seen that many family members all work together to just “get ‘er done!”  In fact, I asked them all if they hired out.  We had setup done in record time and it was perfect!

Molly’s mother and her aunt had a vision for their wedding day, along with Molly, and they scoured antique shops and sales, store sales, and anywhere else they could find vintage items for over a year for the simple, elegant and vintage look and feel of their entire day.  Everywhere you turned, there was a special touch but when you looked at everything together, it just came together beautifully into a cohesive vision!  So much so that we are surely hoping that they won’t want to keep all the beautiful items that were used and Events by Sherri can manage to snag some of them for our inventory to share with other clients!

Molly’s cousin performed the ceremony and family members and Greek Life friends were attendants for the couple.  They had a “dirt” ceremony, as the minister referred to it (I call it a tree planting ceremony).  There were pictures of loved ones on a remembrance table and the guest book was a lab book.  And how cute is this; the seating chart was a Periodic Table that the bride’s mother spent HOURS and HOURS putting together (Aaron is working on his Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry). 

A beautiful day with picture perfect weather, gorgeous outdoor setting, a stunning sunset and a couple so much in love with each other made for a spectacular day!

Thanks to all the vendors who worked together, and the family members, to make their day truly one that we hope they will never forget!
