Ceremony: Broad Street United Methodist Church
Reception: The Old Woolen Mill in Cleveland, TN

The Vendors:
Coordinator: Cheryl Hyland with Blissful Moments
Hair: Hairbenders
Catering: Alshabibi

Florist (Reception): Alshabibi
Hot Dog Vendor (yes, how fun is that?): Rock It Entertainment

Truly amazing people made this day even more incredible. The beautiful venues, the excellent catering, the fabulous coordination, and the absolutely amazing Bride and Groom along with their families and friends made this day unforgettable. They had a huge, wonderful wedding party who oh so graciously stood outside in some sweltering heat to get some incredible photos outside of the church and at one of my favorite places (The Craigmiles Mausoleum, which has an incredible ghost story attached to it - along with just being absolutely beautiful). Chris’s amazing Italian Family was a riot on the dance floor, I love weddings where culture is introduced in to the wedding and/or recpetion. Enjoy the enormous amount of photos, I just couldn’t narrow it down!

HUGE Black Friday Sale!

Tuesday, November 24th, 2009

I’ve never had a Black Friday Sale before. As a matter of fact, aside from a few years in high school when I worked a job in retail I’ve never even participated in Black Friday. I don’t much like crowds, especially crowds that aren’t very friendly because they’re insanely competitive trying to be the first to get that one item they’re looking for. But, the concept intrigues me and I thought - why not have a Black Friday sale where people don’t have to fight over anything, get up at 4am, or even leave their house, to participate? So, on Wednesday at midnight I’ll be announcing the big sale. Emails will go out and there will be a blog announcement with instructions as well. It will be the biggest sale I’ve ever even considered having. It will apply to wedding clients - past, present, and future, it will apply to portrait sessions, and it will apply to gift certificates. It’ll be the perfect time to book your future session, your wedding, or buy a gift certificate for a friend or family member.

It’s a *really* good sale, I’m talking free wedding albums, insanely discounted session fees, things I’m probably crazy to offer. Several people will get entirely free sessions, brag books, and other really cool stuff. It’s going to be fun and will definitely be the best time to book your wedding with me - you won’t get a better deal than this!

If you’d like to be added to the email list (which will be the first people to receive notification that the sale has started and will likely get the best of the one-time deals) send me an email with “Add me” as the subject to melodyhood@gmail.com and I’ll add you to the list.
