CANDACE at CAIRNWOOD

Yet another beautiful Cairnwood Estate wedding this weekend. The mansion never ceases to amaze me with all it's gorgeous historical elements.

This time, I am providing wedibles for the wedding of Candace and Michael. Her gown hung in the dressing room regally with pickups of candlelight satin and small embroidered appliques on the bodice.

This is an early Autumn wedding and I saw them set-up the mansion in every room with colors of burgundy, gray, etc. I love how you can use every room there for a different purpose - bar, cocktail, dancing, etc.

BROWN EYED GIRL becomes BROWN EYED BRIDE!

September 26
Finally, I got to meet fellow Bucks neighbor, Lisa, aka Knottie, browneyedbride. A stunning brown-eyed, brown-hair beauty that was ready to take the walk down the aisle to her groom, Ryan. Lisa also comes complete with her own built-in flowergirl...her 3-year old daughter, Olivia. Miss Olivia greeted my Aunt Anna and I at the hotel suite door with a big smile. "Today mommy is going to be a bride". She followed us around with a camera saying "I am going to take pictures of her" Though it was rainy and windy outside, seeing Lisa and Olivia in their wedding "hoodies" really added sunshine to the day...soooo cute! Lisa ordered Wedibles for her attendants who are ready to celebrate the union of Lisa and Ryan at the beautiful Knowlton Mansion. She thought it would be a good idea to order "Healthy Start" complete with homemade blueberry crumb muffins...mmmm! It was also a great opportunity to see fellow former knottie and wedding coordinator extraordinaire, Erin Proud of Proud to Plan at work! She always does an amazing job and high accolades follow her everywhere...along with hairstylist Megan Cahill (beaming post-baby) and Emily from Cheekadee (that woman does amazing work with makeup...and someday I am going to have her follow me everywhere I go to make me look good) Lisa's flowers were vibrant and beautiful in shades of violet and purple! I can't wait to see photos of Lisa in her gown...it was a striking tribute to elegance and classic femininity of a bygone era with layers of light-infused chiffon.

My aunt and I gazed at it for like 5 minutes. We stalked her gown!
Anyway, I am sure Lisa, Ryan and Olivia are in for a future full of beautiful memories and joy as they celebrate their union together!
