The fresh blue & white color scheme by Linens & Things and Cabo Floral Studio matched the ocean, sky, AND Noelle's baby blue high heels. Some of our favorites from the day!

That looked magical at night too!

As Kate Says {she knows manners}

Now I can hardly imagine anyone wanting to re-gift a Kate Spade item, but there are instances when you receive a gift & ponder.
Kate Spade

From Kate Spade Manners: The quiet truth is that people do re-gift. Re-gifting is done with gifts that don't fit, aren't to your liking, or aren't returnable. Don't re-gift as a way of cleaning out your closet or saving money. As with any gift, the selection should be suited to the recipient.
You can read all of what Kate Spade has to say about Manners in her book of the same title.

How to easily gather your guest list contact information

Last week Jesse, one of the creators of Postable.com contacted me after reading my blog.  He wanted to let me know about his site that just launched.  Now here is the thing, I probably receive 15 emails like this a day. But when it comes direct from the creator/owner and its an email that I can tell they actually invested a bit of time to find out something about me and our clients, I figure its nice to give a moment of my time. Boy am I SO GLAD I GAVE THEM A MOMENT. You are going to be glad too. Introducing Postable, an online guest list and contact information gathering site.

Basically, you send a link out via Facebook, twitter, instant message, email (I used my auto-responder to ask for contact updates), even text message. Your guests fill in the super easy (and rather cute) contact information form in like 30 seconds. It collects everything: Phone, email, mailing address, spouse's name (mucho importante for escort cards and invitations), and birthday.  It even has a little note field.
So, before I shared this with you guys of  course I tested it and it works!  Not only does it work, it works really well. The best part- your contact list can be exported to address books, outlook, gmail, excel - for goodness sakes you can even print labels from it. I was nervous about the privacy part of this and I'm sure you are too.  Here's all the answers you're looking for : Postable FAQ

Joanne+Trung=Elegance | Vancouver Wedding Photographers



Vancouver Wedding Photographers

We love to return from Mexico to our first hometown, Vancouver! Photographing weddings elsewhere keeps us inspired and lets us come home & see our beautiful city with fresh eyes. We loved shooting Joanne+Trung, who wanted an urban feel to their wedding images, and were full of ideas, excitement, and elegance!

It was also great to work with wedding designers Cindy (our former Cabo bride!) & Barb of Serendipity Planners too! And always wonderful to have our loyal friend & talented photographer Tim with us for the day.

Some of our favorites...

Our favorite - sneaking out for night shots :) Joanne let her hair down for the reception - love it!











Congratulations J+T!
