One of the Most Fun Things About Planning a Wedding
Part of the fun of planning a wedding is getting to register for gifts! It actually wound up being a fun bonding experience for Joel and me. He thought for sure he wouldn’t have any fun, but as soon as they handed him the scanner, it was like the Wild West. He was shooting at EVERYTHING with it!
One of the things to remember about registering is to give the guests a lot to choose from. You should have a variety of items in different price ranges. That way, Great Aunt Zelda can get your china and your little cousin Sallie and get your salad tongs!
Also remember, wedding etiquette dictates that the information about where you’re registered goes out with SHOWER invitations, not the wedding invitation.
Columbus is growing and changing! There are lots more places to register now then ever before! Here are some ideas about where to register and what to register for:
Wal-mart: if you and the fiancée are just starting out, Wal-mart is the place. You can register for everything from cleaning supplies to big screen TVs there! Wal-mart is great because you can have a wide array of gifts and price ranges to choose from.
Target: Another great place for the basics. Target also has really stylish small furniture items like bar stools and ottomans!
Bed, Bath & Beyond: Good for “everyday” china, cookware and other kitchen supplies. Also, they have home décor and awesome fluffy towels!
Kohl’s: (my personal favorite!) Kohl’s is great for the Food Network lover and kitchen geek. They carry the entire line of Food Network dishes, cookware and accessories, as well as Kitchenaid mixers! It is also a good place for décor, towels and bedding.
Dillard’s and Macy’s: both great for your special occasion china, sliver and crystal. You know… the more traditional gifts.
The Sample Shop: Located in the Landings, the Sample Shop is great for china, silver, crystal and unique home décor. It’s the best kept secret in town.
One other option you have is to register with us! That’s right! Do you want a beautiful museum-quality canvas gallery wrap of your favorite wedding image? You can register with us, and friends and family can purchase gift cards that can go toward a purchase of a large wall portrait!

Tom and Typre
A busy schedule didn’t put a damper on the day for Tom Beasley and Typre Murphy when they tied the knot on June 27th! They had their ceremony at the Infantry Chapel on Ft. Benning. When we are contracted for an Infantry Chapel wedding, we must use a separate location as the Chapel does not permit us enough time for creative images before the wedding. By utilizing a separate location, Julie is able to spend plenty of time with the couple capturing their formal and fun images. Tom and Typre chose the Marriott in Downtown Columbus for their photos. The historic hotel is a beautiful place for photography and provides the bride a comfortable room to prepare for her wedding day.
Typre was lovely in her strapless gown. Her bridesmaids wore deep purple and pewter dresses, and all of the girls carried pale purple flowers designed by florist/wedding planner and director, Annette Earnest.
Annette also did a wonderful job decorating the Officer’s Club for the reception. Everyone had fun getting to spend time with the bride and groom after the ceremony! The groom’s cake was a spectacular masterpiece of chocolate and strawberries, and the wedding cake was beautiful and echoed the design of Typre’s dress. Of course, our good friend of the studio, Fran Papenfuss, made them—so you know they tasted good, too!!
We wish you all the best Mr. and Mrs. Beasley!

Joseph and Kristina
You could feel the love in the air at the Rivermill Event Center on June 28th, 2009 when Kristina Fehlings and Joseph Hein exchanged vows. The weather was pretty up until the time of the ceremony… then the sky opened up and we had severe thunderstorms. That was okay though ‘cause rain on a wedding day is good luck!
Kristina was absolutely beautiful in her strapless dress with simple detailing on the bodice. Her bridesmaids wore tea-length dresses in a great summery blue. All of the gorgeous ladies carried bouquets of light blue hydrangeas with green, white purple, dark blue, and white wild flowers. The bouquets and all of the wedding arrangements were designed by Kimberly Nelson. The floral arrangements throughout the Rivermill were all summery blues and greens! It was a beautiful sight!
As usual, Jamie Keating and the Rivermill staff did a great job on the reception catering. The reception had a very nice romantic feel. Our buddy, Benji Shepherd, of MBS Entertainment provided the tunes for the evening.
The groom’s cake was a delicious chocolate creation with strawberries on top. The wedding cake was beautifully designed by Pat-A-Cakes bakery to match the colors of the flowers and dresses.
It was an elegant celebration of Kristina and Joseph’s love! We were glad we got to share it with you! Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Hein!
