Saturday Night Funnies

November 18, 2007

On this cold dreary Michiana Saturday Night a little something to warm things up with laughter, wedding disasters. Enjoy!

Let Them Eat Cake III!

November 17, 2007


Over at Weddings By Socialites wedding planner Kelly has a write up for her first wedding of the season, strange to say first since for us our season in Michiana has wound down. I love reading her blog and as evidenced by the pictures, obviously a beautiful wedding. Even though I’m not sold on long tables vs round tables… But I absolutely fell in love with the wedding cake pictured in the write up! Very simple, yet very striking and I hope it tasted as good as it looks! Check out more pics from the wedding and Kelly’s blog.

Tonight I was turned onto this fantastic song from Dashboard Confessional. A great mood setting song. Enjoy everyone!

Wedlife.net New Feature!

November 16, 2007

Did you notice the new clock on the right hand side of this blog? Right now it’s counting down to February 2, 2008. But we’ll have more on that date in the days to come.

Right now I’m excited to introduce our newest offering over at Wedlife.net, the wedding countdown clock! Head on over to our countdown clock page at Wedlife.net fill out the date and time of your wedding, choose your background and we’ll email you the code that will place a countdown clock to your wedding on your website or blog!

A few people have asked about why we have to email. It’s because each clock has to be independently set for your date and time. With the Java script we use we have not found a way to automate this part of the process. We do not share or sell email addresses so that is not something you need to worry about with Michiana Weddings.

So head on over and get your a countdown clock to your wedding day!

Girly Girl Gifts!

November 9, 2007

Don’t forget ladies, Girly Girl Gifts is having it’s open house today and tomorrow! Free Chamagne, a chocolate fountain, Meg Jewelry, it’s going to be shopping heaven! Sigh I’ll probably spend this weeks paycheck. :-)


Are you having trouble choosing the music for your wedding and reception? Drawing a blank? Don’t want to repeat the same music you heard at your friends wedding…

Then check out our new feature, Wedding Grooves! Wedding Grooves is a listing of the various categories of songs standard to most weddings; like First Dance, Father & Daughter Dance, Mother & Son Dance, Bridal Party Dance and more to come! Click on a song title and you’ll be taken to a page where you can view the music video for that song, learn what genre it’s in and purchase either the album through Amazon.com or the Song through iTunes!

If you are creating CD favors for your guests, this will be a great place to start, too.

I got the idea when I found my sister searching for her father daughter dance song on YouTube.

Check back often we will be updating the listings on a regular basis.

Don’t forget there is also the Music For Photo Montages at BridalFilms.net where you can find the popular music to use with those baby and courtship pictures!

Special Thanks to McDonald Studio for the use of the picture.

Let The Eat Cake II

November 5, 2007


I was looking at the latest wedding shot by Greg Luzney of Luzney Photography when I ran across this image. A quick call confirmed it was a Rascia’s Creative Cake creation. She does such unique and creative work! There is no one else in this market in my opinion that rivals her artistic style and cooking skills, because not only do her cakes look awesome they taste heavenly too!

Vendors who drink

November 5, 2007

I don’t know why it seems that some vendors, videographers, photographers, bands, disc jockeys think just because they are working a wedding it’s okay to drink while doing their job. You wouldn’t do it at a weekday 9to5 job so why they think it’s okay at a wedding is beyond me.

This couple really should have had a sober clause in their contract: Drunk photographer loses their wedding photos.
