Being the Mother of the Groom, When the shoe is on the other Foot!
From the desk of: Christine Altieri
It is hard being on the other side of planning – I have new respect for my clients, and I am in awe of their trust in us to produce the wedding of their and their families’ dreams.
It was the most perfect day (I am sure all Mom’s say that) but honestly it was. The skies could have not been more blue, the smiles could not have been wider, and every detail was just what the bride and groom wanted.
My team, went above and beyond, and yes, it was their bosses son, but I know that is what they do for every client.
My friends in the industry went over the top. MAX Ultimate Food created a menu that was unlike any that I had seen….it was just what they wanted.
The linens, all brand new and their team came on site to make sure everything was set up perfectly – thank you PEAK.
Tommy Wholesale – adding the chairs and the perfect dance floor.
Christian at Event Parking Solutions, worked tirelessly to ensure that we had spaces for our guest to park… Gloucester is tricky for parking. His staff even ran out to get my son Red Bull during the wedding!
Corin Ashley at Murray Hill – Unity rocked!!
And last but never least, these photos that you are looking at are by Jo and Dave Lee of Allegro Photography. They have been photographing my family and friends, as well as many of AE clients for years. They captured the day perfectly, and yes Dave, I did pose for a few!
This team made our dreams come true – it was a perfect day, and one that Ben and Al will treasure for years to come.
