To Love and Be Loved...

This past weekend our newlyweds, Mariola and Adam touched everyone’s lives in a special way…. Instead of placing cameras on each table, the couple placed picture frames on each table! Each picture frame had its very own love/marriage quote from greats like Aristotle to movies like “When Harry Met Sally”. I thought it was such a cute and catchy idea! Prior to their reception I found myself walking from table to table reading each frame! See the picture below of how Mariola and Adam presented each quote! Here are some of my favorites….

“To love and be loved is to feel the sun from both sides.” David Viscott

“For two people in a marriage to live together day after day is unquestionably the one miracle the Vatican has overlooked.” Bill Cosby

“When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.” When Harry Met Sally

“To keep your marriage brimming with love in the wedding cup, Whenever you’re wrong, admit it, Whenever you’re right, shut up.” Ogden Nash

“Two souls with but a single thought, two hearts that beat as one.” Franz Joseph von Munch-Bellinghausen



The newlyweds also made dessert a real treat with a cupcake wedding cake and Adam’s mom made 2,000 home-made cookies in addition to a candy bar and fondue station! It was a dessert extravaganza!


Congratulations to the “sweetest” couple, Mariola and Adam!

Here's to the Red, White and Blue...

This Saturday or newlywed’s Danielle and Bill celebrated their love for each other along with their love for our country. Both the bride and the groom have served our country in the military and choose to fill their wedding with traditions like a POW/MIA table, a blessing with wine, bread & salt, and danced the tarantella. Check out some of the pictures I took below:

Danielle and Bill even added little American flags to their seating cards!



An upclose photo of the POW/MIA table… I thought it was very touching that they honored and remembered the POW and MIA on their wedding day

Super Cute!

Best Wishes to our Newlyweds!!!!

Love is Patient, Love is Kind...

It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered,
It keeps no record of wrongs. Loved does not delight evil
But rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trust, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails….
And now these three remain:
Faith, Hope and Love.

But the greatest of these is love.
This beautiful saying was on the wedding ceremony program for our newlyweds, Felica and Walter, this past weekend. The couple got married on-site and I thought the program really set the tone for their first evening as husband and wife!

The couple also let me take a few pictures while they were being photographed!
Check them out below!

Rain, Rain, Go Away...

This past weekend it was absolutely miserable outside, but our newly weds Jacqui and Daniel were shining! I loved the Go-Green favors the Jacqui and Daniel selected! They were blue spruce seedlings with a little card saying “Thank you for sharing our growing memories!” After falling head over heals for these favors….I did some research of my own! You can get Go-Green favors just like our newly weds, locally! Not only did the website I found offer trees, but they also offered flowers with a variety of meanings! If you want to learn more about my research…give me a call at 732.549.2859! I’m Julie again…the Wedding Event Specialist that brings you our weekly blog!

Congratulations Jacqui and Daniel! I’m so happy for the two you!

Look how gorgeous the cake was!

The Luck of the Irish...

What a unique weekend we had here at The Rosewood, with our newlyweds, Margaret and Richard! The couple infused their wedding day with tons of personality and their heritage. Since the groom plays trumpet for The World Famous Gashouse Gang….He actually had his band play with him at the reception! Not only did the band play, but also Margaret and 40 other trumpeters joined in! I thought it was cool! In addition, our Irish newlyweds started celebrating St. Patty’s Day early with Irish flag M&M centerpieces for cocktail hour and a shamrock wedding cake!! I hope Margaret and Richard find a pot of gold at the end of all their rainbows!

Richard, the groom, playing the trumpet!


Irish Flag Centerpieces filled with m&ms! Decorative and Yummy!!
The shamrock wedding cake
Within the next week or so I should have a picture of all 40 trumpeters...So as soon as I get it, I will definitely share it with you!

Pop open the bubbly….

Nothing says its time to celebrate more, than popping open a bottle of champagne, especially on your wedding day. This weekend our newlyweds, Shannon and Kevin, sure did know how to keep a celebration going! Not only did they raise their glasses, but they gave all their guests mini champagne bottles as favors! Which I think is a great way for all your guests to reminisce over all the fun memories they had at your wedding…when they pop open your bubbly favor. Cheers to Shannon and Kevin! We wish you a lifetime full of celebrations!

The detail on their wedding cake in amazing!
