Signature Event: Ray + Ryan

We had so much fun working with and celebrating with Ray & Ryan on their special day!  September 29th started off with tons of primping and pampering.  With ladies on each side, Ray's maids visited Custom Eyes, while Ryan's gals were paid a visit by TinaJanel.

Pre-ceremony shots were taken at The Edsel and Eleanor Ford House, which is on the shore of Lake St. Clair in Grosse Pointe Shores. Led by the phenomenal Kim Williams of The Village Paparazzi, the group travelled the grounds.  The result - many shots fit for a magazine!

Bridal Party

The fabulously styled bridal party was FIERCE and could have hit the runway on their way to the ceremony in their purple, silver and black.   If I could have posted all of the pre-ceremony shots, I would have!  FABULOUS!

Checking out details.

Upon returning to The Gazebo, we prepare for the ceremony and reception.  But first, Ryan & Ray take in the elements of the room.  One of them cried upon the first look - but I won't say who :-).  It was satisfying just to know they were pleased with our efforts.  Thanks to Fairy Tale Flowers, not only did the bridal party have the perfect accessories, but the Paris Pastry's cake was stunning!

Ray's happy with the cake :-)

After a beautifully touching ceremony, guests were treated to hors d'oeuvres while the grooms and bridal party took a few more shots.  Once the bridal party was introduced and toasts were made, the lights dimmed and dinner began with a BANG! Vibrant lighting, provided by AtLarge Sound & Lighting, helped us transition from the ceremony to the reception.

Once the party began, it seemed to never end.  EVERY guest seemed to enjoy themselves.  The young, and the not-so-young!  Thanks to DJ Maestro of B.O.M.B.Z. Musik Entertainment the dance floor stayed packed.

Tahj... having a BLAST!

At the end of the night, moms, dads, guests... and most importantly, Ryan & Ray were all smiles.  Congratulations to a beautiful couple!  Thanks for letting Pink Tie Preferred create your Signature Event.
