Yesterday found TEAM ELD busy seeing two wonderful couples tie the knot; one in Monterey and one in Carmel Valley.
Carol and I had the pleasure of sharing the day of Cathy Morris and Matt Radchenko. They chose Holman Ranch in Carmel Valley for their beautiful mid-afternoon nuptuals officiated by Reverend Brian Lyke. I was thrilled to work wih Brian again as he officiated my first official wedding over 11 years ago. The Bride and Groom decided to see each other before the walk down the aisle so we presented the bride in the inner patio and brought her groom in to see her for the first time in her beautiful ivory gown and 50’s style wisp veil and he in his black tux and white vest. They shared a few quiet moments together before the start of their ceremony. The ceremony went off without a hitch then on to dinner and dancing. We had a chance to check out something new to the scene called Screen Booth. It’s hard to describe but basically combines a videographer and a photobooth. Linda and Jessica did a great job walking all the guests through it and provided lots of fun props to use for leaving either a video message for the happy couple or some photobooth style snap shots. Check out their site at www.screenboothsc.com and check out the demo. The guests had a blast using it and it was hit. Another cool thing Cathy and Matt did was to have a cigar bar complete with cordials. The guys really enjoyed that. Although the skies threatened rain in Monterey, the skies were blue and the sun was warm with a nice breeze at The Ranch. It was a great day.
