On March 23, 2013, Crystal and Marcus experienced their dream wedding! A phenomenal team of Arkansas vendors worked up a World class offer. . . a dream wedding for one lucky couple! Inclusive of photography, videography, design work and many other special details, Crystal and Marcus won the much sought after package and the rest was history! Here's a look into their special day and a touching thank you from the couple. . .
How much fun! Now, here's a special thanks from the lucky newlyweds. . .
Now our wedding day has come to pass with many well wishes from friends and family; the
house back in order, quiet and calm. There is much praise and many thanks Crystal and I would like to pass along to all involved in making this day beyond our dreams!
Crystal and I got engaged on December 1st, 2012 and since that day we began the arduous task of putting together the perfect day. Special not only for us but all of our friends and family as well, we spent countless hours wondering how it would all come together. Many people start to wonder, ‘how are we going to possibly get all the things we need in order to bring about the vision we have in our head.’ The struggle began to take a toll and the stress began to mount.
This is when we were blessed beyond words with a contest that we never fathomed we would happen upon. Kari and Caleb Nichols of Cottonwood Studios Worldwide, along with Christopher and Nancy Nolan of Christopher Nolan Photography had bundled the most amazing wedding package together and we happened to see it on Facebook. Like the many candidates, we entered the contest with hopes of winning and relieving some of our ‘wedding whoa'. Time went by and we kept tracking along, planning and planning. Some time had passed, and one day we received a call from Kari to come to a dinner. We arrive and sat through a wonderful dinner, going over our stories and the ideas we both shared. THEN IT HAPPENED. ‘We’ve selected you guys as our winners!’ Our jaws dropped and tears began to flow. Kari and Caleb Nichols, as well as Christopher and Nancy Nolan, said that they were going to help us with our dream wedding. The package we won included a ton of great vendors that made our day so much more than we could have ever imagined it would have been. We’re writing this letter to thank each and every one of them. Kari and Caleb Nichols of Cottonwood Studios Worldwide, Thank you for organizing this whole package and the wonderful photos during our wedding day!! We couldn’t have asked for a better group to be with us on our special day! Christopher and Nancy Nolan of Christopher Nolan Photography, Thank you guys for being a part of the package as well, our engagement photos turned out AMAZING, you guys helped us get over the cold weather and came out with some great shots that we will now have to remember forever! Blue Cake Company, Our wedding cake and cupcakes were exactly what we had pictured in our head. Looks were not the only thing they had going for them; both only lasted a short time because everyone couldn’t get enough of them. The taste, the look, the presentation…ALL PERFECT! Thank you from the bottom of our heart!! House of Flowers, Flowers always set apart a room or an outfit and act as a perfect accessory. The flowers we received from the House of Flowers were breathtaking; they smelled as if they were picked right before the ceremony. Thank you for being a part of our special day and bringing another wonderful element to our wedding day! Sunflower Films by Paul, From the ceremony, vows, tears, and cheers they caught ever moment. Even at the reception with our crazy Harlem Shake video, Paul our videographer was there to capture it all. We could not have picked a greater guy to put behind the camera! Thanks to Paul and Sunflower Films for taking our wedding day and making it into a memory we will now have for a lifetime!! Central Arkansas Entertainment, What’s a wedding with the music and lights? Just a group of people wondering what’s going on and where they’re supposed to be… We’d like to thank Central Arkansas Entertainment, Lantz – Our wedding day DJ, and Joe Snell for the package and lights they put together for us. The upward lighting turned the already beautiful Junior League of Little Rock into a place perfect for love, and the music was spot on, sweet when it needed to be and hitting on all cylinders to keep the party going! Thanks again for being a part of our special day!! Young Designs, Shawna without you and your team we would have been on our heads. Thank you for keeping everything in the right place at the right time. I know we can be a rowdy bunch sometimes and you guys handled it with grace and poise! Our wedding came together perfectly…we couldn’t have asked for anything more!! THANKS AGAIN AND AGAIN FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS TO EACH AND EVERY PERSON INVOLVED IN MAKING OUR WEDDING DAY A DAY FILLED WITH LOVE AND JOY THAT WE WILL NOW CARRY WITH US FOR THE REST OF OUR LIVES!!! -Marcus and Crystal
