We came across some of our my Kate Parker Wedding vendors in the magazine, Brides Connecticut, and are very excited to see them being featured.  We wanted to share our excitement and give some credit to these wonderful vendors!  Check them out!

Connecticut wedding planner, Traci Romano, was featured in Brides Connecticut giving advice to couples on their wedding day.  We especially enjoyed the advice on using sandpaper to roughen up those soles!  What a good idea for a slip-free night.  The advice from Traci was a great way to let couples know that it is okay to enjoy your day, have the focus be on you, and take the time to enjoy every moment to its fullest!

Connecticut wedding caterer, A Thyme to Cook, was featured in Brides Connecticut giving ideas for entrees that will satisfy every guests’ palate!  In order to keep your budget in line and to keep pre-wedding stress at a minimum, A Thyme to Cook gives tips about using one entree for all.  The choices sound delicious!

Connecticut wedding photographer, Leslie Dumke, was featured in a Real Wedding in Brides Connecticut.  The photographs featured captured every essence of the day from pre-wedding preparations to the reception.  The photograph with the newlyweds, Mia and Craig, on the dance floor is my personal favorite!  Leslie seemed to capture each moment flawlessly.

Connecticut wedding attire, The White Dress by the Shore, was featured teaming up with Beneath the Gown in Brides Connecticut.  The White Dress by the Shore gave advice on gown styles that are classic for brides, while Beneath the Gown gave advice on undergarments for these gowns.  What a great way to team up and make these steps easier on the bride!

Connecticut wedding planner, Jubilee Events, is featured in Brides Connecticut for a personal wedding story.  Candice Dowling Coppola of Jubilee Events shares her special day and shares some of the advice she would give to couples during the wedding planning process.  I really love how Candice says that a wedding ‘evolves’ and not to be freaked out if you don’t know exactly what you want in the beginning.  Have fun with it!  Candice’s intimate, unique, and beautiful wedding seemed to come into place perfectly.

Connecticut wedding photographer, Justin & Mary Marantz, were featured in a Real Wedding in Brides Connecticut.  We loved how all of the photographs reflected the couples’ vision on an intimate, relaxed wedding.  The colors and the black and white are a perfect mixture and captured our eye as we were flipping through the magazine.  Justin & Mary’s sense of knowing what couples are looking for, shines through in their photographs.

Connecticut wedding planner, Jubilee Events, is featured twice in Brides Connecticut.  In this article, Jubilee Events shares a reception table design that pops with color.  The design is a mismatched place setting on a clean, crisp, white table.   Although no place setting is the same, they go together because of the colors and the hot pink that ties everything together.  What a cool idea for couples that are looking to make their table top stand out!

Connecticut wedding photographer, Carla Ten Eyck, was also featured in the article above in Brides Connecticut.  Her photographs helped capture the elements of the table design that stand out.  The photograph of the eclectic plates is my favorite.  The composition lets you see the beautiful gold silver contrasting the white table and, of course, that awesome hot pink plate that pops on the table!

Connecticut wedding paper products, Ceci New York, was featured in Brides Connecticut for their personal wedding and their beautiful invitations.  Lisa Johnson of Ceci New York, shared her wedding day as well as some insight into her own wedding invitations.  I love how Lisa incorporated aspects of her husband’s style and her own style into the invitations.  Lisa said that the personal touch gives guests a sneak peak into your wedding and most importantly, make sure you represent yourself!
