Maddy + Cameron's Lakeside Willowbridge Wedding
Oh my gosh...what an incredible wedding. From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much!! You and your team are absolutely incredible. - Maddy, Bride
I have had the WORSE wedding withdrawals ever! It’s such a sad feeling when it’s all over. *:( sad My heart was happy to see your name pop up this morning! I will never be able to thank you enough for everything you did for us. You are an amazing person with a heart of gold. You pulled off Maddy’s special day perfectly. I know how incredibly hard you and your staff work. Everything little tiny thing was done with so much love and attention. I LOVE seeing your “Behind the Scenes” on Instagram! It breaks my heart really!! Maddy and I have been enjoying seeing all your posts of the weddings you have been working on. We giggle because we are actually” jealous” they get to spend time you. You make the planning process so special and fun, we didn’t want it to end. You have a talent beyond words but combine it with so much love and that’s what make you so special. We have had endless compliments on the wedding thanks to you. The venue turned out spectacular and when we walked into to dinner, it was truly a wonderland. Just gorgeous and thanks to Kara, it smelled so good! I can’t wait for our pictures! I thought the sneak peeks were so awesome! We appreciate you to no end!!!! I don’t know how I could ever thank you enough. If there is anything I can do for you, please let me know. I will recommend you to everyone I know!! - Jenny, MOB

FIRST LOOK WITH THE BRIDE AND HER FATHER
This is one of those moments we take care to plan... The hustle and quick pace of a wedding day has to be planned with recognizing important moments. When we know our clients have a very close relationship with their parents, we take time to make sure the mother of the bride is present to help her daughter get into her gown, followed by a first look with the bride and her Dad. It doesn't take too much time, but it's a thoughtful time to allow a moment to connect and honor the bride's parents.
#corndogwedding
Maddy and I had a running joke that this was the summer of the #corndogwedding When Maddy came to me that she wanted a late night snack for her guests and dreamed of a food truck...well let's say many many hours were spent contacting every food truck in this entire state! With summer being peak "food truck" season... we had to get creative and Horsewood Catering did on site fresh corn dog station and it was a HUGE hit! Success!
Maddy and Cameron... what an incredible experience! Thank YOU for inviting my team and I to be part of this special time with your families. I just adore you both and will treasure our lifelong friendship! I am so blessed by you guys and am seriously missing you like crazy already! I'm so grateful that our paths crossed. Thank you for your trust! Thank you for allowing me to create and dream with you. I'll forever love corn dogs!
To the vendor team! Thank you for your dedication to making this wedding spectacular! I'm so grateful to each of you! To my team.... you guys are rock stars! The hard work! The hustle! The joy and laughter and care in every detail! I'm so proud of you!!!!

Demmi + Nick's Still Water Hollow Wedding
STILL WATER HOLLOW | JUNE 17, 2018
I'm so excited to share with you Demmi + Nick's wedding at beautiful Still Water Hollow! Demmi is one of those brides that is just an absolute joy to work for. She has this soft and bubbly kind spirit! This is a perfect example of a couple who opted for our Enhanced Day-Of Package. Demmi did a fabulous job working on a lot of the design and selecting her vendors. We worked with her on three areas of design assistance to help pull it all together, and together we created their perfect wedding. Thank you Demmi for inviting the Ira + Lucy team to be part of your wedding! Hugs!

JUNE 18 2016 | IDAHO BOTANICAL GARDENS | OWYHEE PLAZA
When you have an iffy forecast, sometimes you have to make decisions on the fly... oh how bad did we want our ceremony in the gardens, but thunderstorms were moving through the area for a couple days and we had 30 mph winds headed our way... so, up went the tent and a quick change to our Rainy Day plan! It worked out well and we are glad we made it happen. As the Bride entered the tent, gusts of wind started up and while it wasn't rain... it was a lot of wind. Thank you Tates Tents and Events for getting this up for us!
The Reveal....
This was thee moment mother-of-the-bride, Kathy, and I had been dreaming of and working so hard for. Kathy was a dream of a mother to work with! Her creative talents were inspiring and bouncing ideas off of one-another was such a special experience. I'm so proud to have done this beside her... Kathy, I'll never forget this moment and I'm so excited we were able to keep the dance floor a HUGE surprise! Thank you Sound Wave for working with us and the many many revisions we did to get the dance floor and lighting just right!
