Merry Christmas from the Cherneski's!

This is our family's Christmas card this year -- I think it turned out pretty decent considering I took all the pictures myself!! I really wanted to get professional pics done this year for our card, but the craziness of fall weddings took over my schedule and by the time we had some free time, it was already December!! Maybe I'll plan to do next year's Christmas card shoot in July :)

Southern Glam Inspiration Shoot

Several months back, Lauren Grove of Every Last Detail asked members of Every Last Vendor to create a styled shoot for her blog. I was excited at the chance to collaborate with some fellow vendors and create something pretty, and thrilled that Lauren chose to feature the shoot! You can view her post here.

My vision for the shoot: I wanted to create a design that was infused with "Southern Glam" -- to me, this means a Southern-themed design with luxurious elements. We brought these ideas to life by placing our shoot at a super Southern venue, the Horse Stamp Inn in Waverly, Georgia. The Horse Stamp Inn is a Bed-and-Breakfast in South Georgia, with a stately mansion, a tree-lined lane, and an absolutely adorable barn. Mason jars, chickens, chicken wire, and hay added to the Southern feel of the images. The "glam" aspects came in with our bride-model and her luxurious, silk-and-bling gown, trendy birdcage headpiece, luscious florals, and shimmering glass and metal accents.

A fabulous vendor team brought this shoot to life:
Photography: Jenn Hopkins Photography
Concept, Planning, and Florals: (Me!) Flaire Weddings & Events
Paper Goods: Denise with Dogwood Blossom Stationery
Videography: Visual Power Cinema
Venue:  Horse Stamp Inn
Cake: For the Love of Cake
Rentals: Beachview Rentals
Hair/Makeup: Paulina Perez

I have to give a huge shout out to Denise of Dogwood Blossom Stationery. She took my concept and ran with it!! The suite she designed for this shoot was stunning, and I was completely thrilled with the final result. I highly recommend her services if you are looking for custom paper goods!

Here are a few of my favorite images from the shoot:
We were also privileged to have John and Angel Powers on hand to capture a behind the scenes video of the shoot. Visit this link to check it out! :)

Thanks again to everyone who brought this shoot to life. If you'd like to commission my team to design your custom wedding, please send me a message, info@flaireweddings.com! :)

Beautiful Decor at Club Continental

Last week we had the privilege to provide decor for a sweet couple, Jenny and Matt, with one of the coolest weddings dates ever: 10.11.12!! Jenny had a vision for an elegant, glam event with the main colors being purple and silver. We provided our chiavari chairs (available through Jax Chair Boutique), linens, uplighting, and some of the decor details, including our mercury glass votives, the seating chart, table numbers and our fun paper straws. Here is a sneak peek of the decor, captured beautifully by Stephie Joy Photography.

We are relaunching as Jax Chair Boutique and we are proud to offer both mahogany and silver chiavari chairs for weddings and other special events. All the information is on our new site: Jax Chair Boutique along with some lovely pictures from past events!!

Featured!

We just love when a blog features our brides!!

Two Flaire brides have recently been seen around the blogosphere --

Our cute bride Megan's shoes were featured on one of my favorite blogs, Southern Weddings! They loved her bright pedicure!
Check it out here:
This lovely photo is by Stephie Joy Photography.

Also, our fashion forward bride Tey from this past October was featured on Style Me Pretty!!

You can see her feature here. Her photographer, Gwen Tundermann, did a fabulous job!
This is the gorgeous bride in her stunning Vera Wang gown.

Both weddings featured adorable straws from our boutique, Flaire Celebrations!

 (Megan used the "Confetti Dots" straws as well as our striped pink straws.) Flaire designed the escort tags and flags. Photo by Stephie Joy.

Tey's celebration featured the hot pink straws as well as blue! I love how they look with her adorable signature drinks. *Quick tip* - Cut your paper straws in half to go in cocktail glasses like these -- you'll get double the usage and they fit perfectly! Photo by Gwen Tundermann.

Congrats ladies!! :) You both had beautiful celebrations!
