Rehearsal Dinner Drama….
One of the more challenging areas of wedding planning is the dreaded ‘Rehearsal Dinner’ Brides and Grooms often dread it because it is one major area they may have to really ‘let go’ – it may be the one big piece the Groom’s family is planning (or traditionally contributing to).

The Truth About Thanksgiving …
by Mark Kingsdorf, MBC This year’s Thanksgiving is extremely challenging for me, I’ve become a little over analytical in light of the over commercialization of Black Friday morphing into Thanksgiving Day and maybe a little cynical. The original meaning of Thanksgiving, as an American holiday, was to celebrate the harvest and working together as community...

They and their families were planning a double-header: ...
Guess this makes it official…
Up until this point we only used their first names… We shared pictures from their wedding and astute sports fans may have recognized them from some of the images that appeared all over the internet from Yahoo to the Baltimore Sun….

It’s my turn!
by Karen Peterkin, PBC I've got three sisters. In birth order I'm second born. In height I'm the shortest. I hate shopping, especially clothes shopping. I kind of dislike spending money in general, but I think the main thing is that I get overwhelmed with choices and how best to use my money. I love...
Wine Them, Dine Them…
I LOVE a good party! We get to go to a lot of wedding industry events and amusing people who plan, cater, decorate, entertain at, photograph and film AMAZING weddings for a living is no easy task… Recently my friends at The Knot came to me and asked me to plan the Philadelphia / South...
