REAL WEDDING: LORALIE & KEVIN
Happy Wednesday Guys….today we feature a gorgeous wedding from Crème de la Crème member, Joel Flory Photography. Joel and Cara are AMAZING photographers and when they contacted me back in December, I knew I wanted to have them featured on the new site. Joel and Cara are sharing the beautiful wedding of Loralie & Kevin with us today…their wedding is truly one of beauty…but the one element that made me ‘do the happy dance’ is Loralie’s STUNNING BLUE DRESS!
Up first is Part One of our Two Part feature….Joel shares a little ‘411’ with us: ‘Loralie and Kevin are such an amazing couple and Cara and I had such a blast photographing their wedding. Kathryn of Dream a Little Dream Events, did such a great job planning the wedding that even when we were hit with a little rain, things went off without a hitch. As always Natalie Bowen provided flowers that were simply stunning. Loralie and Kevin got ready at Hotel Vitale and then we headed down to the Ferry Building and they had some wine and oysters at the Hog Island Oyster Company. They had an amazing roof top ceremony at the Art Institute and then an intimate dinner reception at Florio.’ |

Simply STUNNING…I LOVE this dress and Loralie is a gorgeous bride….Loralie shares with us the ‘411’ on the dress, ‘It was custom-made by Joyce Hittelsdorf. She has a small studio in Carmel, Indiana called Something Wonderful. When I couldn’t find anything that I loved in the stores, Joyce worked with me to put together a gown that had all of the elements I was looking for: right color, right fabrics, right fit.’ |

And the deep red color palette for the bouquet is perfect with the gown! |
