Congrats to Jeff & Kiley!

Jeff and Kiley were married on Brewer's Bay in St. Thomas after exciting the Carnival Dream. They brought their own photographers from my home state of Indiana: Laudig Creations Photography. Thanks Kiley for sending me these photos!

Kiley had emailed us the morning of the wedding and asked if we could get some pirate swords for her. They had planned to buy them in the Bahamas but the ship had a policy of not letting them on! We got them a pirate parrot as well!

Welcome May!

Can you believe it's May already? I'm in a little bit of shock. May is our busiest wedding month of the year and there is so much going on this month, so many exciting weddings & other events. I kind of feel like I need to put a seat belt on in order to prepare for it! I have some absolutely amazing events planned for this weekend and I can't wait to share photos with you next week (or after a really long and solid nap on Sunday).

I wanted to share a quick photo today of our bridal bouquet from yesterday. Some bouquets are uniform all the way around - it doesn't matter which way you turn it, it looks the same. Yet this one was like one of the hologram stickers - every which way you turned it, it looked different. Everyone commented on how gorgeous it was and the bride even said "this is the prettiest bouquet I've ever seen in my entire life!". That's what I love to hear.

And I have something I am dying to tell you - it's new decor for our aisles that I am over the moon about. I know you remember our newest addition to the Island Bliss family:

But just you wait to see what I have up my sleeve. I get giddy thinking about it. And you're probably thinking, wow....my wedding planner is a dork. Maybe. Or maybe you'll see what I'm talking about and you'll join me as we shout it on the rooftops. Probably not...I'm probably just a dork. =)

It's CARNIVAL TIME!

Carnival Time in the VI! Such a great time to be married - just look at the photo ops! Want to get married during Carnival? If you're on-island now, it's not too late - but if you aren't lucky enough to be here, come down in July! St. John Carnival is the first week of July and offers such great photo opportunities as well!
