I am finally putting to use one of the golden gems of advice I received from Justin & Mary Marantz from their Spread the Love Tour.  They mentioned they send their brides & grooms little notes, packages, gifts, etc., throughout the year as their wedding approaches.  Well, I decided to try the “movie night” gift since I thought I could pull it off.  I grabbed two lovey dovey movies from Target, some Crunch ‘n Munch, and a little handwritten note & put them in these boxes.  They are just a little gift to remind my couples who will be married soon to relax, take a break from planning, and enjoy a movie night with their love.  That’s all.  Hope they enjoy them.

PS – I haven’t mailed them yet, so hopefully this doesn’t spoil the surprise.  No one reads this thing anyways, right?

Mandy & Kelvin are married!  They got married like 3 weeks ago & their wedding photographer is being a lame-o & not posting.  Who is that girl?  Oh yeah, its’ me.  I’ve decided for this wedding blog post to do it a little differently.  To make it more manageable for me, and to showcase more photos for them, I’ll do a 5-part series of their wedding.  These first shots are in my “Bride & Groom” section.  This couple is gorgeous!

Mandy’s parents live on a farm in Glen Arm, Maryland & she told me she & Kelvin are planning on opening up an organic dairy part.  They have big plans!

They tied the knot on New Year’s Day.  It was probably the warmest day in a few weeks and I was very grateful.  They opted not to have a “first look” so I sent my trusty assistant Tim to photograph the guys while I stayed with the girls.

Check out Mandy & Kelvin looking all fabulous….
