Our Fantasy Wedding Show was held last Sunday, April 25 at the Lied Center for Performing Arts in downtown Lincoln. It was quite the event, with almost 40 awesome vendors, a super unique runway show courtesy of David's Bridal and Best Styles Formalwear, and tons of prize giveaways! Congrats to the winner of our FREE 5 hour DJ package for her wedding, Elise Alit! Check out the photos below, courtesy of The Leeker's Photography - they turned out great! We'll have many more updates in the coming months for the 2011 show, as well as a highlight video.. stay tuned!

BRIDES Magazine Helpful Hints

I'm such a sucker for wedding magazines.. I'm always buying them in the grocery line and then filling out the little subscription cards. I swear I read so many I don't know how I keep up some months! I found some really cool information in the latest edition of BRIDES Magazine that I simply must share!

Apparently, 5% of brides purchase more than one gown, and out of that, 2% buy more than two! I'm guessing is this is for the brides with the bigger budget.. I know I'm going to get all the wear out of my ONE dress that I can!

Are you a bride who needs to get organized? Google now has a wedding specific website to help brides keep everything order. They have more than 20 templates for addresses, budgets, photos, music lists, and more!

There are all sorts of interesting facts on this page.. check them out below!

The Trend of Friday Weddings

Have you heard? Fridays are the NEW Saturdays! More and more brides are choosing to for go the traditional Saturday wedding and opt for something new.. getting married on a Friday! It can definitely have it's advantages.. Most venues will offer discounted rates on Fridays because those days aren't as in demand as Saturdays are. Well we aren't a venue, but we do want to be a part of your Friday wedding! A Sound Impression is offering $100 off any package booked with us that's on a Friday! That way, you can have a unique wedding while saving a little cash. It's our gift to you - consider it an early wedding present :)

Patrick & Rae, 3.20.10

These two came to us a few weeks before the wedding as a last minute decision - and we are SO glad they did! We had an absolute blast! I met them at the church while they were both still getting ready, with just enough time to get some shots of Rae seeing her son for the first time that day. When she was ready, we took her downstairs where Patrick was waiting to see her for the first time in her dress. His reaction said "stunning!" and we let them have a few moments together. The ceremony went without a hitch, and soon they were headed towards their Hummer with bubbles swirling around. We stopped at the Capital to take some photos on the steps outside, then headed down to Holiday Inn downtown for their reception. She had the cutest idea to attach charms with ribbons to her cake and have all her bridesmaids pull the ribbons at the same time to receive the charms.. I love seeing new things! Jeff with Primetime Music kept the tunes flowing all night and we got to work with Dave from Richmond Photography - can't wait to see his images! Congratulations you two and enjoy the highlights below!
