I had a fantastic time at the
Wedding Crashers event on Saturday. There was a great turnout and I have to say, it was very refreshing to see so many cool couples! Usually these fairs are mostly brides but the men came out in full force, representing. I see the trend of couples really wanting to personalize their days to make it all about THEM! And I love that. :) See more photos

There were so many unique vendors present. I wished I'd had more time to go around and check out everyone's set up but I was so busy at my own table I hardly had a chance to see what else was out there. I was fortunate enough to be next to Abdi & Nico from
3 Photographers (LOVE THEM!) and Melinda from
Lion in the Sun paperie. Great people with amazing businesses. It was so inspiring to be around other vendors doing cool things in this biz.
I reconnected with the amazing
Tammy Golson who was helping coordinate that day, Andrea Blau, my fave special event documentarian from
Rewind Pictures, and
DJ Small Change who played some sweet tunes during the event. I also met the awesomely cool vendors Daniesha, a planner & designer from
Wedded Luxe, Allyson who runs the website
RealHoneymoons.com (SO CLEVER for those looking for honeymoon destinations!), Ara, the new DC transplant who runs a wonderful wedding and design company called
Rock, Paper, Scissors, Kerry the incredible florist from
Root Stock & Quade (love their Clinton Hill shop!), Brooklyn photographer
Daniel Krieger, the lovely make-up artist Jessa from
Blades Natural Beauty, not to mention many more. And two of my favorite bloggers, Jillian from
100 Layer Cake and Vane from
Brooklyn Bride also paid me a visit.
It was a really fun event and all around wonderful day. I was so happy to meet some potential future clients and be around all the creative talent from Brooklyn. Let's hear it for
NEW YORK!
