Happiest of Wednesdays to all you TWPers!  Today's sesh is indeed a sight for sore eyes.  These two tied the knot in November and their awesome photog, Drew Cason has promised to send their wedding pics as soon as he gets them ready (yay, yay!!!).  But till then please enjoy the lovebirds' most adorable engagement pics. . .
It'd be plum near impossible to be any cuter. . . or happier than that!  Soooo sweet.  :)

As mentioned, Ann McGraw and Blake Pond exchanged vows November 16, 2013.  We know for a fact (yep, trust us!) the evening was a night to be remembered!  So, so happy for the newlyweds.

Giant sized hugs and kisses to Drew Cason Photography for making our blog so dang happy today!  Thank you, Drew!  Can't wait to get the wedding pics!  ;)

Make today count, y'all!  Love, love.

XOXO,
Deborah



Arkansas Engagement: Erin + Jason

We loved reading about this couple's sweet story and you will, too!   Their pics are just as sweet.  We've been dying to share these lovely images with you for quite some time.  So, without further ado, here ya' go. . .
And, from the bride to be:

"I had been in Europe with my family for three weeks. I dropped my phone in water the night before I left the country, so I had no way to communicate with Jason while I was overseas except for Skype, which unfortunately wouldn't even connect most of the time. I missed him so much while I was gone, and apparently he missed me as well. On August 4, which is also Jason's birthday, I was scheduled to come home.
After being awake for more than 21 hours traveling, I arrived back in Phoenix at the airport. My flight came in about an hour early, so I didn't expect him to show up to get me, especially since I was phone-less and couldn't tell him I was back in the USA.
As I walked down the corridor toward baggage claim, I heard someone whistle at me. I almost passed right by Jason, who was holding a "Welcome Home, Erin!" sign! As I walked closer to him he flipped over the sign. It read, "Will you marry me?"
I dropped my bags and wrapped my arms around him before he could even get down on one knee! He had a limo and champagne waiting on us outside to take us home.
Our wedding will be on February 22, 2014 in Hot Springs.
p.s. Oh, I guess I can also include that we were high school sweethearts in Camden, Arkansas, broke up, and then reunited after bumping in to one another without knowing we were both living in the same city! :)"

Erin Nipper and Jason Nickerson will be tying the knot in just a few weeks!  We wish them so much happiness.

Special thanks to Hudson Photography for sharing his work with us.  We always love showing off Jason's work with y'all.  He's kind of a master with light and his images are perfectly edited, in our ever so humble opinion.  

Make today count, y'all.  Till tomorrow. . .

XOXO,
Deborah

What a difference a day makes.  We are smitten with each and every one of these pics but the Winter Wonderland bridal portraits are our faves.  We're thinking Whitney may be a good candidate for acting school, God bless her soul. . . 'baby, it's cold out side'.  Composed AND beautiful bride.  So, lovely.  

Whitney Knighten and Michael Milum, Jr. exchanged vows December 28, 2013 at Garvan Gardens in Hot Springs.  TWP wishes the newlyweds a lifetime of joy and happiness.

Big thanks to KB | McElmurry Photogpraphy for making our blog so very pretty today.  :)
Love, you guys!

Let me start by saying that Stephanie Parsley Photography has totally poured the fabulous factor all over us today!  You may remember this stunning couple from their e-session (here), but let me tell you about their wedding!  Far from lacking fun, beauty or lots of love, the wedding of Amanda McColey and Allen Kirby will easily be one of my favorites for a while!  Enjoy these bright colors mixed in with classic concepts for the perfect way to bring some joy to your Monday!





























Stunning, I tell ya!  Amanda and Allen wed at The Terry House on October 26, 2013.  With exquisite floral arrangements provided by Tanarah Luxe Floral, photographer Stephanie Parsley and second shooter, John Block, were not at a loss for beautiful things to photograph.

Special thanks to this team of all-star vendors for making this day so special for the new Mr. and Mrs. Kirby!  Congratulations, y'all!

XOXO,
Anne-Claire

Children are without a doubt some of the most important people in our lives.  Whether a niece or nephew, god-children, your own children or even adorable wee ones you've babysat for many year, these minis are special so of course we want them to be a part of our special day!  No matter their size or even age, here are a few of our favorite ways to incorporate these cuties into your big day!

Today I pose a question for you all. . . what are your thoughts on a sunrise ceremony?  At one of the most beautiful times a day, most folks are sleeping, others choose to get married! It's different, provides stunning photos and without a doubt will be memorable.  Let us know your thoughts!!!

What we love: While we adore so many of these bright eyed ideas, a couple of our morning favorites are the adorable donuts, the must have coffee stations and the gorgeous photos that this crack of dawn opportunity could bring.  For Arkansas, think of all the absolutely stunning backdrops that God has given us for an event like this. . . Petit Jean Mountain, along the river, the beautiful Ozark Mountains throughout the Northwest or even the rolling plains and farmland throughout the Delta!  While 6 AM might not be your cup of joe, what about a brunch themed wedding?  Or an early afternoon picnic?  Mix it up and make sure that your guests will leave your big day and remember it forever!

XOXO,
Anne-Claire
