Wantful
Posted by Natalie
Shopping for gifts just got a whole lot easier! Wantful provides an easy way of shopping for gifts that are stylish and personable. They have so many different types of gifts that you’re guaranteed to find exactly what you’re looking for. They have their gifts separated into categories: home, food/wine, outdoor, his and hers. Not only do they have these gifts available to purchase on the spot but they also have a recommendations tab. If you click on the tab it takes you to a page that asks you a series of questions about the person you are buying the gift for. After getting some information about the gift recipient they give you a selection of gifts that they think would be best and you can browse through them for your favorites. Once you select your favorites (you can have 12 favorites), you can add them to a catalog (either a book or an online catalog) that can be sent to the person you are buying for. They then get to browse the catalog and select their favorite gift! It’s a bulletproof plan for ensuring you get them exactly what they want!
This is a great way to get the perfect gift for anyone, but what we’re most excited about is the Wedding Shop! At the wedding shop on Wantful you can choose from the categories: bridesmaids, groomsmen, your guests and the happy couple. They have a great selection of gifts from any of the categories, or you can use the recommendation tab to give the catalogs as gifts to anyone involved in the wedding.
Make sure to bookmark Wantful to your browser because you are not going to want to forget about them when you’re in desperate need of a fabulous gift!

Jennifer + Jerry’s Wedding
When Jennifer first called to inquire about her wedding, I knew immediately that we would have a blast working together. She selected our full planning package so we planned every little detail from start to finish. We loved her vibrant color pallet, which consisted of eggplant and watermelon with accents of platinum. Please enjoy all of these images from Jennifer Yarbro Photography and congrats to Jennifer and Jerry!

Ticket To Ride
Posted by Meaghan Cody
Before wedding season really kicked in we planned a super fun venue tour extravaganza! We invited 30 wedding professionals to join us at Jim Lee’s venue Experience for our first venue on Ticket To Ride. From there we had limos provided by Choice Luxury Limos waiting to take us out to all of our stops!
Our next stop was Hickory Street Annex where we saw this super cool venue as well as munching on some yummy bites provided by Gil’s Elegant Catering.
From there we got back into the limo, checked in to facebook places and then stopped at The Women’s Museum. This venue is located in Fair Park and has such cool history all throughout the venue.
Our next stop was Texas Discovery Gardens where they have an amazing butterfly house, pretty ballroom, and lots of outdoor gardens for ceremonies!
We then ventured on to Dallas Heritage Village, which is a small little village of old historical buildings in a western setting.
Next we went to Off the Grid, a three leveled industrial building that is super unique.
After a little stop for champagne we headed over to Lofty Spaces, a blank space to create your perfect venue!
We finally ended at The Starlight Room for some yummy food by Jim Lee Events! It was definitely a successful day and we couldn’t of had more fun! Thank you to all the venues who let us stop by that afternoon and a special thank you to Lora Ayers of Lora Ayers Photography for taking all of these amazing photos! We can’t wait to do this again soon!
Maggie and David

We are incredibly lucky to be able to work with such fun couples on a regular basis! Maggie and David were one of our recent couples that we absolutely adored. They tied the knot on May 21st at Tara Winery in Athens, TX and it was an exciting party. It was such a great party that the newly married couple and their friends continued partying well after the reception was over! We hope that you enjoy these pictures of Maggie and David and their amazing wedding!
Thank you so much to Gary with F8 Studio for these incredible images!
