They were beautiful last month and the look pretty crummy this month. They really are lovely, large and totally sharp! I'm trying to figure out how to fix the problem and hopefully before too long the images will be restored to their previously beautiful quality.

Greenfield Village WeddingGreetings, Blog followers! I've fallen hopelessly behind in my blogging as the wedding season and senior shoots are keeping me super busy, so I've decided to start doing really short entries and calling them "Pick of the Day". They may not be representative of the whole day, they probably aren't the couple's favorite shots, but they're fun, different and they're meant to showcase things I love to pick up on during my day. So here they are!<br /><br />Meghan and Andrew wanted a low key, family oriented wedding they could fly in for, do it their way and enjoy their day at Greenfield Village before their reception. They'd gotten married the week before and were hosting a Greenfield Village wedding reception so all their family and friends could join in their celebration. I've shot 5 or 6 "after weddings" this year.<div><br /></div><div><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-DhJ24TGVVfA/TodSfL-KtAI/AAAAAAAABQI/F7wBjrxbg0E/s1600/Meghan%2B%2526%2BAndrew%2B0089.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 800px; height: 536px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-DhJ24TGVVfA/TodSfL-KtAI/AAAAAAAABQI/F7wBjrxbg0E/Meghan%2B%2526%2BAndrew%2B0089.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5658582152557278210" /></a><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-gXXrjsIPmB8/TodSez5hUjI/AAAAAAAABQA/wzIrc3GjnHI/Meghan%2B%2526%2BAndrew%2B0098.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 800px; height: 536px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-gXXrjsIPmB8/TodSez5hUjI/AAAAAAAABQA/wzIrc3GjnHI/Meghan%2B%2526%2BAndrew%2B0098.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5658582146095338034" /></a><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-uHPbe2fQV8k/TodSecQrz9I/AAAAAAAABP4/VzDvmnl47Wk/Meghan%2B%2526%2BAndrew%2B0329.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 536px; height: 800px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-uHPbe2fQV8k/TodSecQrz9I/AAAAAAAABP4/VzDvmnl47Wk/Meghan%2B%2526%2BAndrew%2B0329.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5658582139750043602" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-9cEl4EFvN0Q/TodSd_6OsfI/AAAAAAAABPw/8y7923FYNXY/Meghan%2B%2526%2BAndrew%2B0827.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 800px; height: 536px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-9cEl4EFvN0Q/TodSd_6OsfI/AAAAAAAABPw/8y7923FYNXY/Meghan%2B%2526%2BAndrew%2B0827.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5658582132139667954" /></a><br /><br /><br /></div>Marci Curtishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18400301688603116159noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2685225768325546166.post-80374516237962171662011-08-25T11:54:00.000-07:002011-08-25T12:00:00.572-07:00What NOT to say at the altar!I overheard this story from my groom at last week's wedding. He sees his beautiful bride walking down the aisle towards him. She sees him and bursts into tears. The first words out of her mouth when she reaches him? "I can't do this." His heart lurches; his stomach tightens; he breaks out into a spontaneous sweat. He boldly asks for a clarification. Her answer? "I can't cry in front of all these people". So brides... before you stop your husband to be's heart... choose those first few words carefully!Marci Curtishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18400301688603116159noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2685225768325546166.post-46215509539195205812011-07-02T10:18:00.000-07:002011-07-24T12:22:47.307-07:00Wedding Day Tips for Michigan Wedding Couples!Here are a few wedding day tips for my Michigan wedding clients! Orange barrel season is in full swing! Drive the route you sent out to all your guests a week or two before the wedding to make sure all the maps and directions you gave your guests still apply. If detours or delays are there, let your guests know. The quickest way to post updates is either through a wedding website, or ask your guests for their e-mail address when you ask them to RSVP. You'll save them and yourself a whole lot of stress!<br /><br />Also, because we had an unusually wet spring, mosquitoes are extremely abundant and hungry this season, so don't forget your bug spray. Have a couple of heavy duty varieties for your guests if you're planning on having any part of your festivities outdoors - you'll all be more comfortable in the long run.<br /><br />And lastly... I've seen a big trend this year to switching to table to table receiving lines to greet the guests once the reception starts. Be advised that this usually takes well over an hour to make a circuit of around 10 tables! Often this leaves your guests with not a heck of a lot to do and some will give up and leave as the hour grows late. Instead, consider greeting your guests as they enter the hall for the first half hour of the time you wrote in the invitation. This works especially well if there is a gap between the ceremony and the hall. Once the half hour is over, you're free to start the reception in earnest including a grand entrance. If your guest arrive late, then the onus is on them to seek you out to greet you!Marci Curtishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18400301688603116159noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2685225768325546166.post-77403243714189206292011-06-20T09:35:00.000-07:002011-06-20T09:41:16.872-07:00Troy High Seniors are done!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-B_9UjoVNCxY/Tf93rxIUzyI/AAAAAAAABNc/mVyL8jLx2Aw/hoef1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 470px; height: 800px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-B_9UjoVNCxY/Tf93rxIUzyI/AAAAAAAABNc/mVyL8jLx2Aw/hoef1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5620342453788004130" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-M7HrRpt3H0o/Tf93nGBFcgI/AAAAAAAABNU/jbTlT3ZBMLg/hoef2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 800px; height: 708px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-M7HrRpt3H0o/Tf93nGBFcgI/AAAAAAAABNU/jbTlT3ZBMLg/hoef2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5620342373495435778" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-oI9Hk2gjXoc/Tf93mvIb6aI/AAAAAAAABNM/aZjleIx0z1E/hoef3.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 470px; height: 800px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-oI9Hk2gjXoc/Tf93mvIb6aI/AAAAAAAABNM/aZjleIx0z1E/hoef3.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5620342367352252834" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Z4wM_qCohL0/Tf93mIblLMI/AAAAAAAABNE/pzVUiZsX7hg/hoef4.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 470px; height: 800px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Z4wM_qCohL0/Tf93mIblLMI/AAAAAAAABNE/pzVUiZsX7hg/hoef4.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5620342356963568834" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ipy3d4pOKWw/Tf93lnowtkI/AAAAAAAABM8/FS81QZP8cO8/hoef5.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 800px; height: 708px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ipy3d4pOKWw/Tf93lnowtkI/AAAAAAAABM8/FS81QZP8cO8/hoef5.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5620342348160480834" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-M9dXr3NoBR4/Tf93lVSiWzI/AAAAAAAABM0/ns14i_t4ROs/hoef6.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 470px; height: 800px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-M9dXr3NoBR4/Tf93lVSiWzI/AAAAAAAABM0/ns14i_t4ROs//hoef6.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5620342343235427122" /></a><br />Congratulations, Chris!

Both brides relished their fun, sassy and easy to wear take on their wedding dresses. I have to say, I love this new trend. I hadn't seen a short wedding dress, well... ever! And to see two in a row seemed like enough for me to share this latest wedding fashion trend with you all.<br />No worries about dirt, no enlarged posteriors, no need for a bridesmaid to corral the dress. Very cool indeed!<br /><br />Another trend I'm seeing is brides using their shoes as their primary accessory. This started a few years ago when brides started wearing shoes with accent colors. My bride a few weeks ago choose Jimmy Choo shoes as her only bling and my second bride showed off her fabulous 4 inch heels. Maybe brides have been sporting super fashionable wedding shoes for ages, but this is certainly the first time everyone's been able to see them!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-2n9zDddm4XM/TehHJ6e228I/AAAAAAAABMo/icPnkKmEZGA/shortdress.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 800px; height: 666px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-2n9zDddm4XM/TehHJ6e228I/AAAAAAAABMo/icPnkKmEZGA/shortdress.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5613815171160398786" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-T1H5AHbh01c/TehHJcF6M8I/AAAAAAAABMg/QWhWtJxqeIE/shoes.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 800px; height: 1200px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-T1H5AHbh01c/TehHJcF6M8I/AAAAAAAABMg/QWhWtJxqeIE/shoes.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5613815163002696642" /></a>Marci Curtishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18400301688603116159noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2685225768325546166.post-70242023722530836792011-05-27T10:53:00.000-07:002011-05-27T10:57:28.041-07:00Troy High Senior Photos<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-W4bZFCZ8nCg/Td_lx5-fGeI/AAAAAAAABMY/Msy5onTd9r4/kristin1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 800px; height: 708px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-W4bZFCZ8nCg/Td_lx5-fGeI/AAAAAAAABMY/Msy5onTd9r4/kristin1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5611456306266184162" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-EGK4qvpNViI/Td_lxmbG8cI/AAAAAAAABMQ/MT2yxz3Ule4/kristin5.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 800px; height: 708px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-EGK4qvpNViI/Td_lxmbG8cI/AAAAAAAABMQ/MT2yxz3Ule4/kristin5.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5611456301017526722" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-W884a_083_M/Td_lxThBACI/AAAAAAAABMI/c10DXCJOJyY/kristin6.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 470px; height: 800px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-W884a_083_M/Td_lxThBACI/AAAAAAAABMI/c10DXCJOJyY/kristin6.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5611456295942029346" /></a><br />Congratulations to Troy High senior Kristin who will be heading to University of Michigan this year!

Congrats to Katie and John!Marci Curtishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18400301688603116159noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2685225768325546166.post-69665536131149281412011-03-17T18:58:00.000-07:002011-03-17T19:10:41.147-07:00Masonic Temple Wedding Photos - Nicole and Steven<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-RSFyp1g6Ngo/TYK-4oPQazI/AAAAAAAABL4/B8_w56W_iKc/Marci%2BCurtis%2B026.jpg"><img style="display:block;

Somehow that never sounds quite right! It's always such an incredible pleasure to see my wedding couples a few years later once they start having babies. This couple live a long ways away, so I set up my own studio, turned up the heat to 90 degrees hoping to eventually sleep the newborn... which she never did! She was wonderful... absolutely wonderful. My favorite newborn baby photo from the day is one where she is scrunched up, naked and reflected. If you look carefully, you'll see why she's so peaceful... she's peeing! Enjoy and thanks Amanda & Greg 2006 for sharing your pride and joy!Marci Curtishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18400301688603116159noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2685225768325546166.post-62111457114735630382010-11-15T14:34:00.000-08:002010-11-15T14:46:05.502-08:00Lake Orion Backyard Wedding ~ Stephan & Patrick<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/TOG3whjkEYI/AAAAAAAABJY/vFgAXj8jImw/stephan1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 800px; height: 490px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/TOG3whjkEYI/AAAAAAAABJY/vFgAXj8jImw/stephan1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539911060911559042" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/TOG3wFYSz7I/AAAAAAAABJQ/S-ckk8G_Ix8/stephan2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width:520px; height: 800px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/TOG3wFYSz7I/AAAAAAAABJQ/S-ckk8G_Ix8/stephan2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539911053348097970" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/TOG3v9hZbKI/AAAAAAAABJI/1hq7KQJEI24/stephan3.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 800px; height: 708px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/TOG3v9hZbKI/AAAAAAAABJI/1hq7KQJEI24/stephan3.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539911051238796450" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/TOG3vjFdCuI/AAAAAAAABJA/dg4m-1Z48UI/stephan6.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 800px; height: 490px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/TOG3vjFdCuI/AAAAAAAABJA/dg4m-1Z48UI/stephan6.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539911044142271202" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/TOG3vW19l4I/AAAAAAAABI4/ZAFwUbhH7e0/stephan8.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 520px; height: 800px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/TOG3vW19l4I/AAAAAAAABI4/ZAFwUbhH7e0/stephan8.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539911040856070018" /></a><br />Stephan & Patrick lucked out big time with a beautiful day for their outdoors Lake Orion wedding. It had everything I love about backyard weddings; homemade and personal touches, beautifully handcrafted gifts and lots of love! My very favorite thing about weddings that take place in backyards is that it requires a group effort and that group participation means everybody's invested in making it a grand event. The more people who help, the more people seem to love the event they helped create. Stephan & Patrick certainly did more than their fair share of the work that day, but I loved that they were able to relax and enjoy all the love they got back from their friends and family. Hopefully that comes through in all their wedding photos. I loved the jumbo sized fireworks... gotta love what google can come up with!

I know, I know, I think I said the same thing about a month ago, but I've realized what could I possibly have to show when I get around to updating my wedding website in "off" season if I've already posted everything here?! So Beth and Alex got married in a wonderful methodist church in Clarkston. If any of you are blog stalkers (and I know I do have some!), can you figure out from last year's photos who Beth's cousin is? Hint.... same wedding location and they both used White Lake Oaks for their wedding receptions! I think I have that couple pop up here or on my other blog at <a href="http://www.themichiganweddingphotographer.blogspot.com">www.themichiganweddingphotographer.blogspot.com</a>. Can you figure out who they are? I love this church, love the reception hall and love their DJ, Mary Anne Ross from <a href="http://www.maprodj.com">Mary Ann Productions</a>. I don't get to work with her as often as I'd like... she always does a great job. Thanks and congratulations on pulling off a great party Alex & Beth!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/TKOYFCQSNRI/AAAAAAAABIQ/5ygvowRmOic/beth2.jpg"><img style="display:block;

I've had SO much fun with this family and if you care to look back to last July to see Shannon & Jesse's wedding and this past April to Katie & Mike's wedding you'll see I've been so blessed to spend a lot of time with this incredible family! Katie got ready at her house, then we headed over to see what John and the boys were up to at St. Johns. The ceremony was in St. John's chapel and their reception was in the Atrium at St. Johns Inn as well. Because this family is huge and fun and slightly crazy, their extended family decided to create their own family dance to "Tonight's Gonna Be A Good Night" (is that the real name? I'm not sure!) and filled the entire dance floor with young and old who danced to a fabulously choreographed dance. So cool, so fun and as always with the family... so unique. Love the love they all provide... it's contagious! Kurt from Mike Staff Productions DJd and everybody and I mean EVERYBODY had a blast!

If you look in my banner of jumping bridal party, you'll find Lindsay in there. She knew as soon as she got engaged that I was going to be her wedding photographer, even if that meant having me come out to Chicago as a destination wedding photographer! Despite sweltering heat, a massive thunderstorm that flooded much of downtown Chicago, the skies cleared up, and we stayed in the shade as much as possible so the 98 degree heat didn't bother us too much and we were able to shoot some amazing photos from their hotel's patio including getting some of the set from Transformers 3 (you can see more of this at my other blog, <a href="http://www.themichiganweddingphotographer.blogspot.com">www.themichiganweddingphotographer.blogspot.com</a>).We headed into the beautiful, very dark and impossible hot Holy Family Parish Church in Chicago which I was able to light enough so the photos would look like what your eyes see... something that was a great challenge and I was happy with the results! We then headed next door to St. Ignatius where Mike had gone to school for the elegant wedding reception. Good times had by all490Marci Curtishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18400301688603116159noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2685225768325546166.post-53733983952920920262010-08-25T19:36:00.000-07:002010-08-26T06:42:38.706-07:00Catherine & Eric's Grosse Pointe Wedding PhotosIf you follow my blog on a regular basis, you might notice that a couple of the photos from the Lochmoor Country club in Grosse Pointe Michigan look very familiar. I try very hard not to repeat myself, but one of my favorite photos from one of my favorite couples last year was way too irresistible to pass up during this shoot. If you look back to last June, look for a very familiar bride to see if you can spot which bride is Catherine's cousin! July this year was a wonderful and unique month for me. I had five couples in a row where I knew them as some of their guests because they were related to or had been in a wedding party I'd shot in the past year or two. There is something so fun and magical going into the day and seeing happy, familiar faces around you. If you're on your toes and do follow my blog, you may be able to spot the brides from previous weddings. Hint for Catherine's cousin... while she didn't get married at the Our Lady of the Sea Catholic church in Grosse Pointe, she did go to a park in Grosse Pointe for photos and we did take full advantage of the grounds of the Lochmoor Club in Grosse Pointe. As you can see, we had wild weather, very dramatic skies and a 15 minute downpour where we all stood under a gazebo singing first rain songs, then sunshine songs. <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/THZs_G8Oo5I/AAAAAAAABEY/P8GEsV3VvaY/eric+2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 520px; height: 800px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/THZs_G8Oo5I/AAAAAAAABEY/P8GEsV3VvaY/eric+2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5509711025585169298" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/THZs-j48OWI/AAAAAAAABEQ/gDJoc71nFTw/eric+4.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 800px; height: 708px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/THZs-j48OWI/AAAAAAAABEQ/gDJoc71nFTw/eric+4.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5509711016176138594" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/THZsO03HT_I/AAAAAAAABEI/Qx9wA3WBm6Y/eric+5.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 800px; height: 490px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/THZsO03HT_I/AAAAAAAABEI/Qx9wA3WBm6Y/eric+5.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5509710196098158578" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/THZsOpSXlgI/AAAAAAAABEA/kxpIJaC9kpQ/eric+7.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 800px; height: 490px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/THZsOpSXlgI/AAAAAAAABEA/kxpIJaC9kpQ/eric+7.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5509710192991245826" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/THZsOFUNu_I/AAAAAAAABD4/L3kpAt7vwP4/eric+9.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 800px; height: 666px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/THZsOFUNu_I/AAAAAAAABD4/L3kpAt7vwP4/eric+9.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5509710183335312370" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/THZsNuVtjZI/AAAAAAAABDw/U09pt0jyfS0/eric+10.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 800px; height: 666px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/THZsNuVtjZI/AAAAAAAABDw/U09pt0jyfS0/eric+10.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5509710177167576466" /></a><br />Catherine's dad reacts as his next oldest daughter catches the bouquet.

It was a daytime wedding with lots of fun, tons of cute kids and lots of memorable moments. I decided this blog would be about the wedding from the kid's perspective! I'm so hopelessly behind in my blogging, so forgive the brevity!

Now granted, I'm usually parked in front of the speakers for several hours during the reception capturing dancing. I'd rather be blasted than have the speakers be in the photos. So I've lost about 20% of my hearing over the years of parking myself in front of deluxe sound systems. So... if I'm going deaf, why does the music seem to keep getting louder?<br /><br />Several years ago I started wearing quick, easy to put in ear plugs. I can still hear what people are saying perfectly, but it does cut out the harmful levels of sound. Last weekend I lost my beloved plugs and paid the price with ears that are still ringing some 36 hours later. I went online to fine some replacements and was amazed to see <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Howard-Leight-QD1-Earplugs-Uncorded/dp/B0008GHAC2">they sell them in bulk</a>!<br /><br />The most common complaint I hear by far at weddings is that 50% of the guests that would like to socialize during the reception and they simply can't. So they head to the lobby, outdoors or give up and go home. They'd like to stay, but noise (even nice noise) at that volume is just plain uncomfortable for a lot of people. <br /><br />So I started wondering if couples gave out earplugs by the guestbook, in the bathrooms or on the tables as fun giveaways, how many of their guests would not only use and appreciate them, but might actually stay for the party a bit longer!<br /><br />It's not a reflection on your DJ or their choice in music, it's just that lots of people don't like really, really, REALLY loud music for hours on end!Marci Curtishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18400301688603116159noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2685225768325546166.post-86229428831170793612010-08-06T11:28:00.000-07:002010-08-08T07:18:03.049-07:00Waldenwoods Wedding - Matt & Angela<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/TFxXmocmL1I/AAAAAAAABAw/9AVk2m1_gU4/matt2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 800px; height: 666px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/TFxXmocmL1I/AAAAAAAABAw/9AVk2m1_gU4/matt2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5502369165943910226" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/TFxXmKqjLmI/AAAAAAAABAo/ewDxloy-x1c/matt3.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 520px; height: 800px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/TFxXmKqjLmI/AAAAAAAABAo/ewDxloy-x1c/matt3.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5502369157949369954" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/TFxXlnXQYBI/AAAAAAAABAg/60bZ5jHnMMc/matt6.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 800px; height: 490px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_81Ei1DUe3Uw/TFxXlnXQYBI/AAAAAAAABAg/60bZ5jHnMMc/matt6.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5502369148473204754" /></a><br />Matt & Angela wanted a nice, simple family wedding and they got that AND a beautiful day to boot! Their wedding and reception were at Waldenwoods near Howell, Michigan. It's on a camp ground, which doesn't do it justice at all. It's got a nice lodge and some nice old estate type buildings and the ceremonies typically take place out next to a lake. The staff at Waldenwoods has gotten better in recent years and now hold back any campers or onlookers so they don't come trotting and gawking through the wedding ceremony site. I loved Angela's 90 something year old grandpa who was confused a bit about the huge birthday party he thought he was attending, but he loved the chocolates on the table and all the fuss everybody made over him! Congratulations, Matt & Angela.
