The groom's sister designed this amazing wedding logo (which is comprised of the initials of their Hebrew names). The logo was used on their ceremony program and other wedding items.

their wedding journey from start to finish – we hope you enjoy the planning with us!
They are looking forward to their special day – May 7, 2011!!!

Let’s get started…one of my favorite places to meet with clients is Starbuck’s. 
Its amazing what can be accomplished there! As Jessica and Dave reside in NYC,
we scheduled numerous vendor appointments over three days – it was both
fun and productive!

The One!

Along with securing a wedding location, finding your wedding dress should
be at the top of your priority list since it takes at least six months to order!
After researching online and on foot, we found Jessica’s perfect wedding dress
(by Jim Helm) at Destiny’s Bride in Scottsdale (thanks Zoe!).

We were on a roll…Sister Stacy came across this gorgeous satin purple dress at
Twirl Boutique in Scottsdale!  Since its a May wedding, we will be shortening the
length of the dress.  Tip to brides…purple pops in photographs and many
bridesmaids can wear that color.

As their wedding color scheme is purple, pink and light blue, this tie was
clearly the winner! Jessica and Dave had a great time shopping
for his attire! We love when our clients are having fun!

Our initial floral appointment with Avant-Garde Floral Studio went great.  I always suggest to brides
to bring visual aids so they can best describe what they like…and what they don’t!
Amazing ideas can come from anywhere!

Stay tuned…more updates on this wedding coming soon!
