Last month we had the pleasure of celebrating our first birthday and grand opening of our new studio space with over 100 of our closest {amazingly talented wedding vendor} friends. The amazing food from Epicure, yummy desserts from Cloud 9 Bakery and Sugar Fancies, strawberry basil cocktails brought to life by Dimitri Sequeira, craft beer from Due South Brewing Company, a photo booth care of Sideshow Booth, all captured by my wonderful sister-in-law Jamie of Mayfly Photography – we could not have asked for a more amazing event. Of course I cannot forget to thank our very gracious friends Stef and Eileen for being our behind-the-scenes execution and clean up crew, allowing Jovan and I to host while still enjoying ourselves and all of our company.
We want to thank everyone who attended and showed their support. We met so many new faces (forgive us if we forgot any names!) and connected with so many great people. We actually had so much fun that we’re thinking of doing it again! {End of the season celebration, anyone?!}
I won’t write too much more because the best part has been captured in time thanks to Mayfly Photography. Check out all the fun we had!
