Despite the rain that threatened to be never ending for weeks, Eva and James' day turned out beautifully with the presence of Mr. Sun and its burnished gold gleam. The beautiful outdoor ceremony and exchange of vows took place at The Tides Estate in North Haledon, NJ and was officiated by Rev. Paul Mayer.
What a great wedding!
Behind a great wedding there are some amazing people to credit. Eva is the cousin of a great friend and videographer (who of course provided video services), Mary at Touch of Class Video. Mary and Eva's aunt, Mina were both her planners for the most part and needless to say, they did an amazing job and so I was honored when Mary asked me to be her cousin's Day of Coordinator. Knowing how much time, effort and thought to every detail she put in to this day for Eva and James...I was beyond thrilled.
The Bride and Bridesmaid's hair and make up looked fanta-bulous, thanks to Michelle LoConte at Pink Comb Salon.
Mary planned on an upbeat and fun cocktail hour for Eva and James... Howie Bongo was the perfect addition with a steel drum show. Reception entertainment was provided by Mary's husband, Mario at Touch of Class DJ's who knows how to rock a party. For Eva's and James' memories to last a lifetime, Mary was also photographer for a day along with Sharon Curia.
With so many things for guests to enjoy, no one was ever seating. Steel drums, Bongos, Photobooth, Candy Bar, Espresso Bar...oh yes, In addition to a dessert hour, at the end of the night guest drove away with a sweet treat. The big and Lil' guests came by our Candy Buffet and grabbed delicious, sugary treats to take home! The night ended with a little sugar buzz. I'll be sure to post some pictures soon.
It was a very busy day and even so Robyn and I had a great time and we were thrilled to work once again with some amazing vendors.
