Jason & Nicole! They are just another AMAZING couple! We met Nicole towards the end of September 2007 and knew from the get-go that she was going to be so much fun to work with. She was another bride who had a lot of her day planned when she came to us, so our role was to help with some additional vendors, give extra ideas, put the timeline together and coordinate with all of her vendors to make sure that everything went smoothly on her big day!
In October of 2007 Jason & Nicole moved to Colorado so they wanted to make sure that there was someone here in Indiana to oversee everything. So, we e-mailed multiple times each day until everything was in its place. Jason & Nicole did come back to Indiana once or twice prior to their event, so we set up vendor meetings with virtually all of their vendors to go over everything that had been discussed between all parties. Everything was set to go and it went...flawlessly!
Their wedding was outdoors at Laurel Hall (BEAUTIFUL location). On rehearsal day my mom and I got their a couple hours early because we helped the waitstaff get the tables set. Well...kind of...they delivered pink tablecloths instead of imperial white...so we had a minor setback! So, once we identified that the pink was NOT what we ordered they waitstaff quickly rectified the situation and on wedding day all of the linens were correct and the room was stunning!
The day of the wedding was absolutely gorgeous! On rehearsal day we had a bit of a sprinkle, but the sky was perfect just for them on their big day! Our team worked really hard to make this wedding just perfect! There were so many elements and locations. Laurel Hall is an old house and the rooms are broken up so we had lots of ground to cover! We helped the waitstaff change out the linens, fold the napkins, tie the chair cushions on, etc. It was crazy...as it always is, but that is why you hire us...so you don't have to worry about all of the craziness that goes on behind the scenes! :) We made sure all of the chairs for the ceremony location were set up and that everything and everyone who was supposed to arrive did just that!
Really...this day was just so darn smooth! Nicole and her maid-of-honor had their hair and make-up done (True Colors...Rebecca) in the suite upstairs in Laurel Hall. They just relaxed all morning and drank champagne. Jason and his best man were on time and had time to just mingle with family and relax. We really aim at a stress-free day for our couples...the day goes bye so quickly the way it is that no bride or groom should be bothered with the details on their wedding day! I think both Jason & Nicole will attest to that...they both just kept saying how fast the day was going bye!
We have just truly been so fortunate to work with GREAT couples and vendors! Here are a list of vendors that helped make Jason & Nicole's wedding day so memorable!
- Classic Cakes -- Liz and her team are just AMAZING at what they do! They provided a BEAUTIFUL cake for Jason & Nicole's day!
- True Colors (Hair & Make-up) -- Rebecca and her team once again did an OUTSTANDING job on Nicole and her maid-of-honor!
- Jacquie's Gourmet Catering -- Jackie is so nice to work with and talk to! Her staff are wonderful to work with and our banquet manager for the night, Crystal, was just great! They were all so accommodating and quickly rectified any situation that arose (i.e. the linens).
- Laurel Hall -- Stephanie and her team are AMAZING and such a pleasure to work with! It is such an impressive and unique venue! If you are looking for an outdoor location this is definitely one to check out!
- TLW Entertainment (Village Quartet & Krista Lee) -- Terry, Liz & Krista Lee are just so easy and nice to work with! Terry is the booking agent for TLW, Liz is the main point of contact for the Village Quartet and Krista Lee is a great (fun and energetic) DJ. TLW has a lot of entertainment acts to offer...definitely check them out!
- Flowers by Melissa -- Melissa was so sweet to work with. She really worked with Nicole to make sure that she was totally pleased with her flowers and on the day of she definitely delivered! The flowers were so vibrant and just look magnificent around Laurel Hall.
- Anointed Hands Interpreting -- Lisa did such a great job for Jason & Nicole's friends! They had a few deaf friends attending their event, so Lisa signed during the ceremony and Nicole signed during dinner!
- Julie Denny-Hughes (Officiant) -- Julie did a wonderful job for Jason and Nicole.
- Alanna Photography -- WOW...Janie and her husband, James, did a MAGNIFICENT job on the photos! She took so many photos and they were all so good it was difficult to choose!

The Basset Hound cake topper! Jason & Nicole have two basset hounds, so they tried to incorporate them! They also gave a donation in honor of their guests, in lieu of favors, to High Country Basset Hound Rescue & Black-Footed Ferret Recovery Program in Colorado.
Simply AMAZING!
