Paula and Omar June 9, 2012

One afternoon, Omar’s assistant called me to setup an appointment to meet with him. When I arrived at Omar’s office, I had found he has been planning most of the wedding for Paula, his fiancĂ©e. They both are new to the area, Paula starting her residency and Omar just opening an accounting office in Newport News.

Omar already had so much done and did an amazing job with all the details in their wedding. I was really impressed! A month later, I finally got to meet Paula and I helped tie up any loose ends to make their day perfect.

Omar and Paula were married in the garden of the Mariners Museum in Newport News. The day was warm, but it certainly was a beautiful day to get married. The reception that followed was inside the museum. There were many vendors that helped make this day extra special. The lighting was provided by Astro Entertainment, the catering by Williamsburg Occasions, the DJ from DJ Silk and the cake from Cake Delights.

Emerson and Chris May 19, 2012

Let’s start this off with Classy Southern Style Wedding! This is the best way to describe the wedding party and wedding. Once I had left the rehearsal, I called the photographer and said you are going to LOVE this wedding party. The ladies are southern bells and the men southern gentlemen. Seeing everyone together on the wedding day, men with their bow ties and ladies in lovely knee length dress, it was classy all the way.


I worked with the mother of the bride for most of the planning. Mom had done an amazing job making sure each detail was touched in some sort of way, from when the guests were greeted at the cocktail hour to the departure. There were signature drinks, each having swirly straws with a cute tag attached to them. On the tag listed its signature name. Along with the drinks, the ambiance was set by lanterns, candle light, and so many more details.

The reception was at the Princess Anne Country Club along with a live band. The band, 10 Spot, was amazing and kept the guests on their feet all night long. The evening almost didn’t come to an end because they kept requesting, “Just One More Song!!”

As always, Ramone was a pleasure to work with. I am looking forward to sharing his pictures. Shockley’s created a delicious southern style cake and Blue Steel lit the night and danced the room along with the guests. Everyone certainly enjoyed this Classy Southern Night!
