On October 26 was a big day for Maggie and CJ, winners of the KSN Throws a Wedding Contest! What a whirlwind day! We started out at Platinum Salon and Spa with Stephanie of Fat Cat Productions. Maggie and all her bridesmaids had their hair styled and make up applied by the very talented stylists. Maggie's hair looked great with the winning style and she kept mentioning how no one from work would recognize her! Afterwards, Maggie ran to get lunch and take a break until the afternoon when we all met back up at the Patroleum Club to prepare for the actual ceremony.
When Maggie arrived, she went to check out all the floral arrangements provided by Susan's Flowers and the cake donated by Artistic Cakes. When the dresses arrived, Maggie wasted no time and got ready with the help of her bridesmaids. The winning dress looked great on her and quite unique. It was an Alfred Angelo white gown but with a splash of color around the waist and a split up the back opening to a swatch of color around the waist and a split up the back opening to a swatch of color that matched the light blue bridesmaids dresses. A semi-cathedral length gown flowed behind her. The flower girl's dress was also a winning choice by KSN viewers, white toule with matching blue flowers around the waist and a bow in the back.
Once the girls were ready, Maggie went to meet her groom for the first time prior to the wedding so they could get many photos out of the way before guests arrived. CJ was poised at the front of the room with his back to the bride as she walked down the aisle and tapped him on the shoulder. He had the biggest smile on his face when he turned around! After the photos Maggie retreated to the dressing room while guests started arriving and CJ greeted and thanked them for coming.
Once the music started for the ceremony, the room came to a hush, the bridesmaids all marched in and the crowd stood for the bride as she entered through the french doors. Her father escorted her and gave her away. A judge, the couple knew from their Law Enforcement careers, performed the ceremony and in record time! They were husband and wife before they knew it and off to the awaiting limo from A-List Limousine for a few more pictures off site.
With the sun dipping down below the horizon so quickly, we headed to the Keeper of the Plains for photos for some extra lighting. We were able to get some killer shots of the wedding party and the newlyweds.
Then it was time to get the wedding party, Maggie and CJ back their reception. They were announced by DJ Mark Mazur and promptly cut the cake and were toasted by the Best Man and Maid of Honor before they had a chance to sit down and have a bite to eat themselves. Soon after Maggie threw her bouquet, CJ removed her garter (like a gentleman!) and they danced their first song together as husband and wife. The parents dances followed and then the dance "snowballed" into a very nice party for them. They spent the entire night dancing, visiting with friends and family and just enjoying each other.
It was really a fun day to be a part of. Thanks to KSN for allowing us to be a part of the contest and Lacey for all the guidance along the way. Thanks mostly to CJ and Maggie for being so open and willing to allow their day to basically be planned by the public! You were great to work with and get to know, please stay in touch!Clic
