MELISSA and JEREMY-Winter Wedding at Cheers Chalet




















Here is a long-awaited sneak peek from Melissa and Jeremy's beautiful winter wedding at Cheers Chalet. It was our last wedding of 2010 and was a wonderful holiday gathering for Melissa and Jeremy's family and friends. Everything about the day sparkled--from the details on Melissa's gorgeous gown and gorgeous shoes, to the sparkly snowflakes on the gorgeous cake, to the sparklers that the guests lit as Melissa and Jeremy made their getaway.

Since it was an evening wedding in the winter, and Melissa and Jeremy wanted to get some outdoor photos, they had a special "reveal" moment in front of the Christmas tree. The looks on both of their faces as they caught the first look of each other were so special--tears of joy included! Then we were out and about to capture a few outdoor photos before the last of the light was gone. Check out Melissa's Uggs for the outdoor photos--love them!

The ceremony was especially memorable as it was performed by a combination of Melissa's uncle and her father taking over once he escorted Melissa down the aisle. With a special candle lighting in memory of Jeremy's father, the unity candle and special music by Jeremy's brother and his fiancee--the sparkling theme continued.

The reception had everyone dancing away under the sparkling stars. When it was time for the bride and groom to make their escape, everyone headed outside and lit sparklers for their getaway. It was a bit windy--so it was a bit of a challenge--but still a sparkling end to a perfect wedding day!

THERESA and WALTER-Columbus Oh wedding photography
















Here is a sneak peek of Theresa and Walter's wedding. It was a very intimate wedding on Thanksgiving Eve(yes, I really am running that far behind--'tis the season). Theresa and Walter were high school sweethearts who went their separate ways after high school. They both married other people and had families. Their lives took lots of turns and after all of this, they reconnected and promised to stay in touch. Happily, they rekindled the romance which led them to marriage this time. With their children and families joining them, they had a very romantic wedding in their home.

Theresa and her daughters decorated themselves--and did a fabulous job. Everything was lit by candlelight and led to the intimate feel of the evening. I have to say that their Shot Bar was one of the cutest touches that I have seen at a wedding--and totally new to me--which in itself is hard to do! It was definitely a great way to start the holiday season!
