Stephanie & Dan - July 27, 2008

Stephanie & Dan live in Bristol, but just fell in love with The Towers in Narragansett. So, off we went!

One big story that day (a least from our point of view) was the weather. We encountered extreme rain on the way there, and then managed to get all the equipment into the building without incident. We got there REALLY early so we wouldn't be in the way of catering. Once inside, we saw spectacular lightening out over the ocean. It was amazing to be in that location and watch the storm (after setup of course!)

The rain stopped for the guests' arrival, thank goodness. I don't think they cared about the weather, though, this group was ready for fun!

One musical note: we really liked Stephanie's wedding party entrance idea. She had the women come in to one song, then the men to anther (see below). Here's my favorite thing that happened....I usually line everyone up for introductions. The two flower girls were to walk in together, but one of them came right up to me and told me that she was walking in alone, and then her sister behind her. They wanted their own intro! I didn't hesitate to accommodate (after checking with the bride, of course). Hey, we go with the flow!

We also had the chance to work with one of our favorite caterers, Simply Devine Catering of Barrington. They are exceptional - the food, the staff - and well, we are partial to husband and wife teams!!! Go Janet & Paul!
