Beejal & Stephen are Engaged! | April 4, 2012 | Downtown Historic Norcross

Meet Beejal, Stephen, and COSMO!  (Such a cute dog name!)  This adorable couple is getting married in November and it will be one busy day!  We will be taking part in an Indian ceremony, and Christian ceremony all in the same day!  Should be a lot of fun:) For now, check out their engagement session we did in Historic Downtown Norcross last week!

My turn as a bride | February 18, 2012 | The most magical day of my life!

I finally found the man of my dreams!  On February 18, 2012 I became Mrs. Robert Collazo:) We met on e-harmony, got engaged in four months, and 8 months later got married!  When you know, you know!  My turn on the other side of the camera was so much fun!

Since I have seen SO MANY weddings, I knew exactly what I didn’t want.  Haha!  I wanted our wedding to be unique, and for everyone to really see our personalities (or I guess mine more so, Bobby just wanted me to have everything how I wanted.  Good husband!) shine.  Since I was a little girl, I have always been a huge Wizard of Oz fan.  So a wedding in the Emerald City we had!  Complete with jeweled shoes:)

 

We could not have had a better team of vendors!

 

King Plow Arts Center | Bold American Catering set the perfect backdrop and yummy food for our day.

Paper Parfait made all of our beautiful programs, invitations, and signage for the day.

Ciao Bella Weddings did all our beautiful design, set up, flowers, candles, practically helped plan the wedding!

Gretchen Zarett did all of our hair and makeup flawlessly.

Project Duo helped capture all of these beautiful photos so we can remember for years to come!

Ellyb Events made sure everything ran smoothly!

Wedding Angels helped me find my perfect Casablanca dress.

Savvi Formal Wear made all my men look like the rat pack!

I found these shoes on Etsy.  I even wore them to church on Easter;)Ciao Bella made these BEAUTIFUL bouquets!  We chose to do a poppy look:)Gretchen did a fabulous job on my hair and makeup!  Thanks for making me look like a princess!I can’t say enough good words about Paper Parfait.  Sirmantha took my crazy tornado invitation idea and hit it out of the park!My handsome hubby!Our wedding party consisted of my sister Amber, my lifelong friend Kristi that I have known from fourth grade onward, and Bobby’s two brothers Teddy and Danny.We had a ring blessing ceremony where the rings were passed amongst our guests so they could put their prayers and blessings on our marriage. The Emerald City!My dad made our beautiful wedding cake.  When I saw it before the ceremony I cried.  I cried on and off all day though…We even had the doors to the city!I can’t believe I have been married almost two months already.  The day was completely amazing, but goes by SO FAST!  Advice to all my brides, breathe, take it all in, your wedding only happens for one day!  I am so glad we have great photos to cherish.  I appreciate my job even more after getting married than I did before.  Bobby, I love you with all my heart and know our journey through life will be incredible.  Thank you for asking me to marry you!

My Quiny turns 3!

A few weekends ago Bobby and I made the trip south to Macon to see my little newphew Quin who just turned THREE!  Way to make Auntie M feel old!  LOL.  The cherry blossom festival was also in town, so we went over to see the balloons and have some fun!

The festival had so many awesome balloons!  One they had was a “cold air” balloon that the kids could run around and play in.  Quin LOVED IT!These boys adore their Uncle Bobby!A monster balloon!  We had to leave before they took off, but next year we will go back later to see them take flight!Macon is COVERED with beautiful Cherry Blossom trees this time of year.Time for a birthday party!  Our theme… Come play in the dirt with me!Can you tell little Bobby had a blast?Quin loved his Grady cupcakes.Super Quin to the rescue!  He is obsessed with super heros these days…

Keshawn and JR are engaged! | March 28, 2011
