Vintage Bridal Accessories: A Bridal Shoot by Relive Photography

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

We are so excited to share with you a photo shoot by Massachusetts wedding photographer, Relive Photography. This is a great look at some vintage wedding accessories captured by one of our my Kate Parker Wedding members. Check out the pictures below along with an insiders look at the shoot by photographer, Laura Parent.

Laura Parent of Relive Photography:

As a wedding photographer with a Vintage Flair at Relive Photography,  I love accessories and especially “Vintage Accessories”.  I thought it would be fun to show some different and unique items that can be used during your wedding day.  I have just finished a Fashion Photo Shoot to show off these exact items.  The bride can not only use these awesome custom made rings but also can use them as gifts for their bridal party.  These rings have all been custom made by Wicked Peacock and are all created from antique estate jewelry which means that every one is a unique one of a kind.  Also Wicked Peacock is a fabulous designer of Vintage Hair Accessories and Bridal Hair Accessories. Take a look at these items and please feel free to contact me to get a hold of this fabulous designer.  Well, here they are!

Big rings are very vintage, especially one’s that resemble broaches.

I love this outfit.  A simple high skirt with tights is a great vintage/modern twist.

A birdcage veil with feathers is a great vintage look.

These photo effects are very vintage because of the crinkled looking photograph and the color manipulation.

Wedding Tip of the Day by Lasso’d Moon Designs

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

Today’s wedding tip is from Carey Bunker of Lasso’d Moon Designs!  Carey wrote a great expert advice article on my Kate Parker Wedding and she shares some info about the pricing of wedding stationery.  Check out her little tip and visit the full expert advice article on my Kate Parker Wedding.

Lasso'd Moon Designs

One of the most common questions or concerns I tend to hear about in the wedding industry is why does this cost so much? And while that seems to be asked of every wedding service, I’d like to address the cost of custom stationery and invitations.  When you order a custom invitation, your stationer isn’t taking a stock design, dropping in your wording and shipping them off to a printer. Typically, there is an in person meeting if you are close in geography, a flurry of e-mails, rounds of proofs and perhaps a number of phone conversations or in person meetings. This doesn’t even take into account the time your designer might spend on creating or altering graphics to suit your particular wants. So before you even get to printing, your designer could be any where from 3-10 hours into your project.

Maine and New Hampshire Wedding Videographer: AF Media LLC in the Vendor Spotlight

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

Maine and New Hampshire wedding videographer, Adam Flaherty of AF Media LLC is featured in the vendor spotlight! Adam understands how important a wedding day is and captures every moment on video! Adam feels it is important to be creative, non-intrusive, and professional. Check out more about Adam below and me sure to visit my Kate Parker Wedding to see more!

AF MEDIA, LLC :: Wedding Demo March 2010 from Adam Flaherty on Vimeo.

my Kate Parker Wedding State and Budget: Maine and New Hampshire, under $25k

Number of years in business: I’ve been producing, shooting, and editing video for about 8 years now, and I’ve been running my own business for just over two years.  It’s been a fun and exciting journey.

Preferred wedding venues/locations/styles: I shoot “cinematic” style . . . I capture the day as it happens and present it in a realistic way, but I look for those creative shots, angles, and editing techniques that make your wedding video fun to watch over and over!

Pricing Information: We always customize our packages based on your needs and what you’re looking for in a finished product.  Our packages are reasonably priced and we’d love to work with you to customize a quote that fits into your wedding budget.

What makes you stand out? When all is said and done, you want a video that LOOKS and SOUNDS great, and that captures all of the important moments of your wedding day.  We’ll give you that, but we also look for those fun shots, angles, and editing techniques that make your video fun to watch over and over!

What’s the favorite part of your work? I always enjoy meeting with the bride and groom-to-be to discuss their vision for the wedding video, and explaining to them how we’ll achieve what they’re looking for.  There are many aspects of video production which people don’t think about, so it’s a lot of fun teaching people about what it is we do, and how we’ll fit into their wedding day.

If you have any spare time, how do you spend it? I enjoy listening to and making music.

Which charity(s) are you donating to and why?  I think it’s absolutely awesome that the folks at myKPW are donating to these charities.  I only had limited knowledge about each, so filling out my application to become part of the family was a great opportunity to look into each one a bit more… and ultimately, I couldn’t pick a favorite–they’re all great causes which rely on donations.  let’s help them out!

Wedding Tip of the Day by Parrott Design Studio

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

Today’s wedding tip of the day comes from Rhode Island paper products, Parrott Design Studio. Sarah wrote a great expert advice article on my Kate Parker Wedding giving some tips on writing thank you notes to your guests. Below is some of the expert advice, to check out the full expert advice, visit my Kate Parker Wedding!

Thank You Notes and Stationary

For the newly, & nearly, wed, it is always important to have stationery on hand for the ever-important thank you notes.  A hand-written thank you note is not only appreciated when it comes to engagement, shower, & wedding gifts, it is necessary. Stay organized by keeping a list of guests at each event where you may receive gifts {an engagement party, shower, the wedding…} & have someone record what you received as you open the gifts {as my sister’s maid-of-honor, I did this at her shower}.  Once you send the thank you note, check them off.  I think it is also nice to write a note to guests you did not receive gifts from, but attended & helped celebrate.
