Margaret and Nick’s wedding was one I have been eagerly waiting for all year.  As the banquet manager at The Grandview, Margaret has seen hundreds, maybe even thousands of weddings.  So when you’ve seen it all, how do you top everything for your own wedding?  And as Nick is an executive chef, I was definitely looking forward to the food!  I knew they had been up til 3am Friday making homemade raviolis – I couldn’t wait.  The Grandview looks amazing on any day, but the stunning decor at this wedding just blew the roof off.  Black and white flock patterned napkins and tablecloths, black magic roses, red charger plates – the touches and color scheme was amazing.  The staff at The Grandview is always wonderful, but everyone really outdid themselves on this special day.

During the photo shoot, we almost had a snafu as my ladder wasn’t tall enough to get Margaret up on the old piano loading dock where I wanted her to be.  Nick stepped in and just swooped Margaret up 6 feet.  Then he just seemed to bounce up himself.  Thank you so much Nick!
