We had another wonderful wedding this past Saturday. Amy and Andrew were beaming throughout the entire day. The reception was held at Calhoun Beach Club which is a spectacular venue. D'Amico Catering did a fabulous job as always. Jenny Bedard was the photographer at this event and she was really great to work with. She brought her own "photo booth" for the guests to have fun with during cocktails. Jennifer and the Ladies at Luna Vinca did an impressive job with the floral. We tag teamed the decor. The bride rented our 28" tall pilsner vases and Luna Vinca designed a floral arrangement to set on the top of the vase with crystals dangling down. We did this to take advantage of the height of the room. Amy also rented our apothecary jars for a candy buffet. The guests kept coming back to refill the monogrammed Chinese take out boxes throughout the night. The entire day was a lot of fun for everyone, including us.
At Your Service Weddings is pleased to announce that we are opening an office in International Market Square. The location should be up and running by December 1st. Make an appointment for a consultation to stop in and see what we can do for you.

Welcome to the new blog! We are very excited to be able to write about all of the adventures in wedding planning.
This past Saturday we had a beautiful wedding at the Chart House in Lakeville. Lora was the Lead Consultant at this wedding. The bride and groom were easy to work with and really enjoyed the day. Of course, there were two really good examples of why a wedding coordinator should be hired for at least the day of the wedding.
Going into rehearsal on Friday Lora discovered that the wedding coordinator at the church had forgotten about this rehearsal and was still on her way to the church for the 5:30 rehearsal. It was now 5:40. There was no time to waste because the rehearsal dinner started 6:30. Lora let the church coordinator know that she was going to start rehearsal and the coordinator could take over when she arrived. The plan worked. Introductions were done, questions about the following day were answered, then the wedding party was lined up at the front of the church when the coordinator walked in. The rehearsal dinner started a few minutes late, but it could have be a lot worse if Lora hadn't been there.
Saturday's wedding went well. It was a lovely ceremony with a festive atmosphere. The Chart House is always a unique and nice location to work at. During pictures, one of the groomsmen decided that it would be fun to climb up the rope connected to the ship that is outside of the restaurant. During this, he split his pants open. You guessed it, his bum was exposed. Luckily it was on the seam and Lora always carries a sewing kit. She sewed up the pants to almost perfect condition. The funny part is that right before he split his pants he said, "I always seem to put a hole in my pants during the dance at weddings". Needless to say he didn't put the pants back on the rest of the night so more damage wouldn't be done.
Thank you to Stacy and Rick for working with At Your Service Weddings. We loved working with you and wish you the best. Look for our post next week regarding this weekends upcoming wedding at Calhoun Beach Club and maybe some pictures from Stacy and Rick's wedding.
