2nd Annual "Breakfast with Santa"

This past weekend Remember This Day teamed up once again with the lovely Erin Farrell for our 2nd Annual Breakfast with Santa celebration!!  We helped to plan and organize the customer appreciation VIP event, and it was a huge success! 

The breakfast with this super special guest (Santa, of course!) was held at Saint Andrew's Prep School in Middletown, Delaware.  This was our first time at this location, and let me tell you- the grounds are AH-MAZING!!  I could spend all day just walking around and admiring the beauty of both the school and its surroundings!

We created a delicious spread of bagels, pastries, cookies, fruit, yogurt and a plethora of yummy beverages!  We set out crayons and Christmas-themed coloring sheets for the little ones, as well as Holiday books for them to read (or to be read), while waiting their turn to tell Mr. Claus what they'd like for Christmas this year. 

As an extra special treat, we arranged a table display for the kiddos to make their very own "Reindeer Food" to put on their front yard (so Rudolph knows where to stop!).  Remember This Day designed and created the signage for this table, as well.

Thank you to everyone who came out and celebrated with us!!

Pam & Ryan: Vintage Garden Wedding (with a modern twist!)

I met Pam well over a year ago, when she first started planning her wedding!  She hired us for extended partial planning- which included venue and vendor research- so we are VERY excited to share this unique and fun wedding with you, since we have been assisting with the event design and decor from the start!!

Dark eggplant and greenery hues were accented within the eclectic vintage garden feel at the absolutely gorgeous Greenville Country Club.  The ceremony was held outside in the garden and was presided over by none other than Altared Vows by Taya, with musical accompaniment by Mello Strings.  Following the ceremony, guests enjoyed a wonderful cocktail hour on the outdoor terrace and in the living room and atrium of the Club.  Pam & Ryan had a signature cocktail and fun straws for their guests to use! 

The tables were accented in Shell Bengaline linens with dark eggplant satin napkins on the guest tables, and Shell Bengaline linens underneath our Hyde Park Lace overlay and accented with the Shell Bengaline napkins... all provided by Remember This Day!!!

The foyer and reception area of the Club was adorned with the most exquisite wildflower arrangements that I have literally ever seen!!  I was in awe of the vibrant colors and freshness that Love 'N Fresh Flowers created!  They are a private, sustainably managed floral farm in Philadelphia- and these flowers were harvest by Jennie the day before the wedding!!  She also provided the guests with  potted succulent favors to bring home with them and enjoy for a long time!!

This wedding shows how you can infuse your own personalities into your wedding day!  From the Mad Lib guestbook, vintage suitcase and rustic birdcage for cards- to Pam's purple shoes under her dress and their personalized wooden cake topper made to resemble the bride and groom (on top of a delicious cake by Liz Marden)!  One thing this wedding definitely did not lack, are details!

Bethany from Gloss Salon did the girls' hair, and it stayed in place all night while they danced to mixes provided by No Macarena DJs!!

We also had the fantastic opportunity to refer Pam and Ryan to one of our all-time FAVORITE photographers- Photography by Laurie.... it's always a blast working with her!

Congratulations, Pam & Ryan!  We were so honored to be a part of your special day!

Jeny & Joe: Rustic Vintage Wedding on Lake Michigan!

I have been looking forward to blogging about this wedding for over TWO years (since Jeny and Joe got engaged!)  As many of you will recognize, Jeny is one of our coordination assistants here at Remember This Day, and has been with us since the beginning!!  So when Joe popped the question, Jeny and I got to work on the planning!!  We've been with her from the start and helped with the event design (read: antique shopping!), cohesive details, day of coordination and direction.  I just love my full-service brides... seeing a wedding take form from the very beginning and then implementing everything and witness it all come together is the best part of being a planner!

This wedding is the epitome of Jeny's personality (and mine too, actually!)  Lots of pearls, vintage and antique elements, lace, eclectic designs and just a fun and laid-back day!

Jeny grew up in Michigan and has family in nearby Indiana, so when choosing a venue for her upcoming nuptials, it was a fairly easy decision to have an outdoor reception on her family's property in on Lake Michigan after the Mass at Holy Trinity Church in South Bend, Indiana.  Jeny's great-grandfather helped to BUILD this Church after immigrating from Hungary!  So much history!

MANY thanks to the fabulous Amanda Mae Photography (located in Grand Rapids, Michigan) for capturing all these fun images!  Also to Classic Catering for the delicious food and tent rental... and we can't forget Hair Crafters Salon for getting these already gorgeous girls all dolled up for the big day!

And YES we traveled to Michigan and Indiana for this wedding!  Not that we could ever miss one of our OWN walk down the aisle, but destination wedding and travel are awesome!  We are really excited for coordinating an April wedding in San Diego, too!!

Once again, CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
