Reed - McGeever Wedding 1.8.11



The lovely couple, Allison Reed and BJ McGeever, married January 8, 2011 in Dallas, Texas. The ceremony was held at Kessler Park United Methodist Church...beautiful plum and soothing green colors made these afternoon "I Do's" picture perfect. After the exchange of vows the party began at the nearby St. John's Episcopal Church (Parish Hall)!
I had the privilege of coordinating reception details for BJ and Allison... and what a perfect entourage of vendors the Reeds and McGeevers had lined-up for that day! The afternoon could not have included a more successful and talented crew.

Dr. Delphinium brought the flower arrangements.... GORGEOUS deep purple/plum colors...long stem greenery with cream accents - these are perfect winter colors. Winter brides often think they have to incorporate solely dark shades...but this isn't the case! There are so many vibrant colors to choose from, even in those frosty months! (I love the use of silver/golds, purples, bright reds, greens, bold and electric blues, etc.)


Photos (although these pics were snagged from Facebook!) were captured by Lindsey Carlson... and many of Allison's family members helped with set-up of the tables (crystal candle holders and glass hurricanes with candles graced each table). The round-shaped reception hall, half-surrounded with large bay windows, was a fantastic venue for this early afternoon wedding.

There were multiple chocolate cakes served for the Groom's cake (Bakery On A Hill).... and the amazing hors d' oeurves were catered by A Fiore Catering. Angie Fiore is a very successful and talented caterer in Dallas, who fuses an attractive, contemporary style with classic, traditional dishes. Her warm, personable attitude and creative flair proved her such a joy to work with!
LOVE this shot of the bride and her dad!
