Last night I had the opportunity to work with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation who were honoring some of Cincinnati's Finest Young Professionals at the Bell Event Centre.  It was a great time, well planned, vendors, food, wine, sponsors and amazing people.  I'd like to mention a few of them here with links to their websites if you'd like to check them out:

It was a little chilly at the Bell Event Center in downtown Cincinnati today for Nick & Julie's wedding ceremony and reception.  I had the pleasure of working with DJ/MC Steve Bender, Florist Yellow Canary, Hair and Make-Up A little off the top, Lighting CSC, Cake Spoon Fulla Sugar and Tuxes from Folchi Formal Wear.

Everything was fantastic.  The decor that Julie's mom provided at the Bell was amazing as well as the new lighting package that CSC provided.  The stories from the toasts in particular from Julie's brothers who saved her life at least 15 times a day after almost drowning her 15 times a day in the family pool.  Great stories.  How Nick ended up with the UC Dance team girl and his best man was left hanging out to dry even though Nick was his guest at the games is a story I'll have to get more details on one day.  Hopefully he's landed on his feet now!

Enjoy the sneak peek.  The rest to come soon!!

 

Cincinnati Wedding Photography, Paul & Becky 8-13-11

Cincinnati Senior Photographer Daniel Michael with Don, Aaron and Amanda photographed Paul and Becky Saturday august 13.  We started at their house doing some details and getting ready photos and followed that up with a trip to Eden Park where they saw each other for the first time.  From there we headed to Findlay Market and then to Holy Trinity Church in Norwood for a beautiful Wedding Ceremony.  The Wedding Reception was at the stunning Verdin Bell Event Centrewhere Brooke and her staff were just amazing!  Danny from CSCdid the lighting and was also the MC/DJ.  It was a good night all around!!

Everything was just fun, beautiful and pretty much perfect all day long.  Katie Elfers made gorgeous vibrant bouquets, LOVED THEM!  Watching Ashley from I do MakeUp was like watching an artist work canvas.  Every time I looked over at Becky she was getting more and more beautiful!  The beautiful wedding cake was provided by Affordable Wedding Creations.

Probably the hardest thing we did, was at the end of the night when Becky wanted to spell "thanks" in sparklers!  She had seen a photo with "love" which was much easier because every letter flowed and because it was only 4 letters.  But with this we had to use lower case letters to make it work.  The ladies helping with this task were not completely sober at midnight but were making a valiant effort anyways.  And it worked!!  What a fun day for everyone!  I'm not sure if Cristin Kiefer has any wedding planning experience, but if I hadn't known she was a guest, I'd have said she was a pretty damn good planner.  Cristin, you were right on top of everything and made things so much easier for me.  Thank you!

Cincinnati Wedding Photography , Cody & Eva, 7-1-11

An all star cast of vendors for an all star couple.  Cody and Eva were my kinda of couple!  Love them!  I wish we were in vegas so we could keep going!  Of course if that were the case, I wouldn't be posting these photos!  So, first things first!  I have to give credit to a group of vendors who were absolutely first class.  I have to start with the staff at Drees Pavillion at Devou park.  You guys were on top of everything and made sure Cody and Eva could enjoy every moment of their night!  McHales Catering  not only had amazing food, but had everyone fed and ready to party so fast that I was almost not even ready yet!  Then of course there was Jimmy Jam with CSC productions.  It's been too long my friend!  I'll have to work on correcting that!!  The wedding hair and make up was done by Salon Beck and I must say the ladies were stunning.  I'd like to give credit to the people from Salon Beck but at the same time, I'm pretty sure these ladies were going to look amazing no matter what!!  The room was decked out by nothing but the best; Susan Foy was the event designer while the fine people at Goodwin Lighting accented the room.  The guys were decked out in nothing but the best from Folchi's Formalwear which lead to my second week in a row of no issues with tuxes!!  Savannah Nite had a pimped out limo to get everyone around (in particular to the after party at Bartini's).  Patricia's cake was the usual... Amazing!!!  Uncle Rick performed a fantastic ceremony where he ad libbed as necessary to make everything just perfect.  

Cody and Eva are very lucky people.  First of all, you're lucky to have found each other.  You're the couple everyone wants to be.  Second, you have the complete support of your family and friends.  They all love you so much that the after party struggled (I use that term loosely) to get started without you!  Ok, so they were partying like rock stars and barley noticed when you arrived.  Anyways, you have a great support system, a great example in your parents and siblings who look up to you and are there for you anytime you need them.  Oh and did I mention, you had a kick ass wedding!!

Cincinnati Wedding Photography Eric and Kristyn, 5-29-11

The Senior Photographers at this wedding were Daniel Michael and Doug Oaks.  The Associate Photographers were Jessica Fischer.  All Portraits are courtesy of Images by Daniel Michael.

The Ceremony Destination and Reception Location were both at the Verdin Bell Event Centre.  Not that I'm ever surprised by this, but Amy and the staff were amazing.  The food was ridiculous and the service was spot on. Their Wedding DJ was Brandon from Hey Mr DJ.  Few MC's can personalize a reception like the guys at Hey Mr DJ.  It's always entertaining, well thought out, well planned and professional..  The Wedding Cake was Cheesecake from Jerry's Cheesecakes!.  The beautiful flowers were provided by the Florist Petals and Glass.  Her Hair was done by Liz Carter from Bridal Hair by Liz and Make Up was done by the talented Nancy from Brideface.  I loved what Danny from CSC did with the Lighting.  The Bell event center is so beautiful it doesn't need much lighting.  However, some effect lights on the dance floor, some decor lights and most importantly, spot lights outside on the stained glass windows featured one of the more unique aspects of the Bell Event Center even at night when the sun no longer lights them up.  I finally had the opportunity to work with Wedding and Event Planner, Julie and the wonderfully talented ladies from Cincy Event Planning.  They were on time, organized, and always behind the scenes.  If you didn't know there was a wedding planner, you would have assumed Kristyn was capable of miracles!
