wow, what a crazy, wild, exciting and super fun time we had yesterday on laura and ryan’s big day! we worried about rain all day, but luckily the rain held off…until just after we all loaded the bus to head to the reception. whew! now, the reception is where wild and crazy come into play. oh, it was just a little thing called a tornado warning. oh wait, it was two of them! crazy, right? luckily all the weather hoopla was down south and we were safely tucked away up in maryland heights having a fab time in between and during our excursions into the orlando garden’s dungeon, otherwise known as the bad weather safe area. and prior to the reception…well, it was simply a fantastically beautiful day on many, many levels…lots more to come.
congratulations laura and ryan!!! i hope you have a fabulous time in florida!!!

happy living,
rochelle

calling all brides and grooms…do you want to have a fabulously fun party with your bridal party and families and earn CRWstudio credit that you can put toward your wedding balance and/or prints and products???
CRWstudio is introducing it’s groundbreaking Big Day Portrait Parties! Here’s how they work…
1. the bride and groom or their friends host a party (this could be couples shower, bachelor/bachelorette parties, or any old party)
2. we’ll show up with the gear necessary to turn it into a portrait party
3. throughout the party, various groups of guests will make their way over to us to have their pictures taken. this could be the bride and her bridesmaids, the groom and his groomsman, various family members, etc.
4. we’ll post the images from the portrait party and during a predetermined time frame, guests will order the prints and products they want.
5. we’ll tally the sales total from the party and the bride and groom will earn studio credit to use toward their wedding balance and/or prints and products.
this is truly a great opportunity, for what other studio do you know allows brides and grooms to earn “money” to put toward their balance??? and, they get to do so just by partying! not too shabby, eh? and don’t forget, we offer some really cool and unique photo gifts that would be perfect for bridal parties and parents. couples could use images from the portrait party to get accordion albums, jewelry, money clips, business card holders and so much more for their friends and families.
we are so stoked to be able to do our little part to help our brides and grooms offset the overwhelming cost of getting married by offering our big day portrait parties. but there’s also another very important benefit in doing them. this will give me a chance to meet and get to know the friends and families of our couples before their big day. this will allow for a much more relaxed big day which in turns, paves the way for even better images from us! so, to quote the office, our big day portrait parties are a win-win-win dealio!
