We are so happy to announce that Clean Plate Club accepted our invitation to join StudioWed beginning this month!  Clean Plate Club was voted #1 EIGHT years in a row since 2001 by the Nashville Scene and they were featured on The Food Networks FoodNation with Bobby Flay! Monica and her team will dream up the most delicious menus for your event – and you rest assured that you will be well taken care of with 30 years of experience under their belts.

Another thing we’re excited about is that CPC will be hosting “Date Night Tastings” at StudioWed throughout the year so that brides and grooms can have a first-hand experience of what they have to offer.  The tentative date for the first tasting is February 4, 2011.

Not too long ago, Sharon from Jonathon Campbell Photography emailed me this gorgeous engagement session and I squeeled with delight. I love Bicentennial Mall State Park and the Capitol building for photos – its just so Nashville! Jonathon captured Casey and Josh’s love for one another perfectly. On Jonathon’s blog he mentioned that Casey and Josh “danced like no one was watching” – and we all said “AWWW!!” {tear}.

We just love Jonathon’s beautiful, clean photography – he is truly a delight to work with. Enjoy!

If you would like to meet Jonathon Campbell Photography to talk about your wedding photography needs, please call 739-5477 or email us at: leigh@studiowed.net. We look forward to hearing from you!

We’re so excited to announce the winner of our September give-away (and we apologize for our tardiness, we’re in the throws of fall weddings!)! Claudia W. is the winner of our My Mojuba wedding day emergency kit! Claudia currently has the gorgeous Cedarwood booked for her wedding day next September and is looking at several more of our vendors to help complete her needs. She and her fiance’, Bill also plan on receiving marriage counseling from our own Marie McKinney-Oates (Nashville Marriage Studio) – which we highly recommend to all of our brides (and hey, you get to save money on your marriage license!).

Here is an adorable picture of her and her fiance Bill for you all to enjoy:

So what’s on the docket for this month’s winners? Why none other than a My Big Day Planner Kit! What is this fabulous kit you ask? Well its a “wedding organizer created by brides for brides”! We recently had lunch with the president of My Big Day Planner, Tawsha and she showed us all about her creation and how it greatly benefits brides in their wedding planning process. It is by far the MOST helpful wedding organizer/planner book we’ve ever seen – they haven’t missed a thing! The great thing is that the organizer is updated often to make sure that you’re always covered for your planning process (no outdated materials here!).

Here is what the kit includes:

Since we’re late in announcing October’s giveaway, we’re going to extend it through the month of November to make sure everyone gets a chance to win. We’ll also be picking out an additional prize for our November brides that we’ll be announcing next week – so stay tuned!

As always, if you would like help finding your wedding vendors (for FREE!), don’t hesitate to contact us at 6715-739-5477 or email us at leigh@studiowed.net. We can’t wait to hear from you!
