Michele and Mark

Michele and Mark married on Saturday. The ceremony and reception were at the Taft. The Taft is a great place for photos and the event tent is always a classy display of lighting and floral arrangements. The food is top notch, too. Michele and Mark's wedding party had red floral accents and the bridesmaids wore red dresses. The band that played was Johnny Clueless, whom we also had the pleasure of working with a couple of weeks ago. Here are a few pictures from the day. To see more, go to

Catherine and Jerod

Catherine and Jerod married at St. Rose on Saturday. According to the priest, St. Rose made Cincinnati Magazine's "100 Things in Cincinnati to do before you die" list. It is a beautiful church, but I suspect it made the list because of the what is on the back of the church: a record of how high the river has been over the years. The highest mark is from the flood of 1937, if I remember correctly. Luckily, we weren't flooded out on Saturday, even though the morning was a downpour. The reception followed at Camargo Country Club in the outdoor event area with Soul Pocket rocking the party. Here are a few pictures from the wedding. To see more, go to

Jessica and Alf

Jessica and Alf married on Saturday the 5th. Jessica and her bridesmaids arrived at Ault Park before the rain. We were able to do a few pictures outside, but once we felt one or two raindrops, almost no time passed before there was a downpour. They had huge umbrellas and waited under the trellis until the rain let up. Her bridesmaids, in a successful effort to keep Jessica's spirits up, began singing- in perfect unison, with all the words exactly right- "Don't Stop Believin" by Journey. It was classic. Everyone was singing and laughing and not letting the rain get them down. We did eventually have to head indoors to the Marriott, but got some fun pictures there as well. The ceremony was at St. Mary's in Hyde Park and the reception at the Madison in Covington. Johnny Clueless (one of my faves) played at the reception. Here are a few pictures from the wedding.

Anne and Peter

Anne and Peter married on Saturday. The ceremony took place at St. Rose, a lovely church near the river. A beautiful warm light shines through the gorgeous stained glass windows and there is no other way to describe it but radiant. We started pictures at Anne's parents house and were sure to get a picture of the bride and the bridesmaids on the staircase. We were told it was built for Anne's wedding day. We don't know if that is true, but the grand staircase was perfect for the occasion. After the ceremony we went to P&G pavillion for a few pictures with the wedding party and then headed to the Taft for the reception. As always, the Taft was elegantly decorated. The flowers were done by Robin Wood Flowers, the lighting by Goodwin Lighting, the draping by Scott at Entertainment Unlimited Events. The food was presented with the artistic flair of Jeff Thomas Catering. It looked delicious. Brigid from I-do weddings coordinated the event and Airwave provided the musical entertainment for the evening. To see more pictures from this event, go to From the wedding of Anne and Peter.
