Kara + Jan-Michael's Wedding

FRENCH - JAPANESE INSPIRED WEDDING
JUNE 18 2016 | IDAHO BOTANICAL GARDENS | OWYHEE PLAZA

When you have an iffy forecast, sometimes you have to make decisions on the fly... oh how bad did we want our ceremony in the gardens, but thunderstorms were moving through the area for a couple days and we had 30 mph winds headed our way... so, up went the tent and a quick change to our Rainy Day plan! It worked out well and we are glad we made it happen. As the Bride entered the tent, gusts of wind started up and while it wasn't rain... it was a lot of wind. Thank you Tates Tents and Events for getting this up for us!

The Reveal....

This was thee moment mother-of-the-bride, Kathy, and I had been dreaming of and working so hard for. Kathy was a dream of a mother to work with! Her creative talents were inspiring and bouncing ideas off of one-another was such a special experience. I'm so proud to have done this beside her... Kathy, I'll never forget this moment and I'm so excited we were able to keep the dance floor a HUGE surprise! Thank you Sound Wave for working with us and the many many revisions we did to get the dance floor and lighting just right!

“I hope you know how wonderful the night was for us! Like I told you that evening, it was like a dream! When I asked Kara what she thought during dinner she said she felt like she was at a celebrity wedding. Jan-Michael said he wanted to do it all again but experience it as a guest! Really, we are so appreciative and I am sorry it has ended too. I know it will be a day that all of us will remember fondly and it wouldn’t have been nearly as wonderful without you! If I could afford it I would have given you your weight in GOLD!!!”

Katie + Craig's Warm Springs Wedding

ST. JOHN CATHEDRAL | WARM SPRINGS | JUNE 25TH 2016

“To love is nothing. To be loved is something. But to love and be loved, that’s everything.”

— T. Tolis

“..they are so happy..and so of course we are so happy. What a wonderful wedding. You were incredible and you are so gifted at what you do. Have anyone call me anytime if they want to visit with a past, very particular “mother of the bride” …my reference will be shining and for very good reasons. Thank you for making the day go so smoothly and so beautifully. While we did this for Katie and Craig, I can’t help be pleased when the compliments keep rolling in..the food, the flowers, the décor, the venue, the staff, the music, the …….you should be very proud! Cheers to you Heidi…our love and admiration for a fantastic job so very well done.”

— Mother of The Bride, Patty

“I know Patty said thank you, but I wanted to echo that sentiment. Obviously, we are pretty fond of Katie and Craig. You really made their special day perfect. You, and your staff, were wonderful to work with and fun to be around. Taking all those organizational tasks off our hands allowed us to relish the occasion, what a blessing.”

— Father of the Bride, Derrick

“You are really amazing. You are passionate about what you do and you poor your whole self into it. My favorite comment was that people ‘could really feel the love’ during the whole event! Isn’t that the coolest?

Some other comments:
“They moved a LOT of people through the event and it never felt like it”

Loved the pics
Loved the table settings
LOVED the tent

“The food was remarkable” – everything here was perfect and people were wondering how you fed so many without any food being dry or cold. Wow. “The staff was really professional and worked so hard”. Everyone was jealous of the ear pieces. “There were a lot of photographers. Those pictures are going to be amazing” –”

— Mother of the Groom, Teresa

It's with bittersweet emotions that I share Katie and Craig's beautiful wedding day! It took almost a full year's work to plan, design and manage their wedding and I have come to care very much for Katie and Craig and their families. I consider myself extremely blessed by the clients and the friendships formed from the relationship we build and so sometimes when it's all over.... it can be a little sad. I know that the emails and texts and meetings will become memories, but they are cherished memories. Katie and Craig have thee biggest hearts and are two of the most kind individuals I have ever met. This was truly a labor of love! Thank you Katie and Craig, Patty and Derrick, Teresa and Jeff... thank you for sharing this intimate and cherished time in your family's lives with me and allowing me and my team the honor to create a remarkable and memorable wedding I know we will all cherish. Blessings! - H

SIGNATURE FARM TABLES

If you've been following our Instagram, then you know some exciting updates for our rental inventory! We have handcrafted farm tables in the works for our 2016 clients, designed to seat 5 on each side! When we first introduced farm tables to the Idaho event market, they were nabbed up left and right and well loved. However, we found that we kept wishing we could seat more at a table then what those first designs allowed. So, our new tables will seat 5 on each side comfortably and feature a more classic leg that is a little more elegant than the traditional farm table style. We have pictured below the concept for what we are currently working on in our "Santa" shop. We will have pictures this winter showcasing these beauties!
