Julie and Andre's Monday Devils Thumb Ranch wedding last August was one of the best weddings I have ever been involved with. This couple is so beautiful and thoughtful - I started crying at our first meeting (and then proceeded in telling them that I would do just about anything to help - just to be involved in this day).
The entire wedding had 27 guests and 13 of them were under the age of 10 (including Julie's adorable son and daughter). We were able to design 2 parties - one for the kiddos on the deck and a dinner party in the Timberhouse after the kids went to the cabins (with babysitters, of course!). Again, my apologies to the babysitters because I went a tad bonkers overdoing the candy bar.
Instead of a traditional flower girl, Julie and Andre included every child at the wedding with Julie's daughter leading the way, throwing petals as high in the air as possible. She then turned around and ran up to the deck to escort her Mom down the aisle. That was when I, the wedding planner, burst into tears . . .again . .
For the adult dinner, we created a kings table in the Timberhouse and filled the center with mono-blossom arrangements in brightly colored glass. A brown runner was added to the center of the table and every free inch was covered in candles.
I was so lucky to work with Jenna and Matt of Jenna Walker Photography on this wedding. As always, they outdid themselves with their incredible work. And on a personal note, I was standing next to Jenna when we saw Julie's son throw the red balloon in the air - immediately Jenna RAN out into the meadow (when she sees the moment happening - it is pure magic) while I untied the rest of the balloons from the kids table and ran them out to the meadow. The end result was one of my favorite wedding pictures of all time.
Julie and Andre, thank you for allowing us to be a part of your wedding day. You two reminded me why I love weddings. I wish your entire family a lifetime of love and happiness.
