Sean and Grace are some of <a href="http://www.weddingsandthecity.com/">Weddings and the City</a>'s newest clients and we already LOVE them.<br /><br />We have just booked <a href="http://www.ritzcarlton.com/en/Properties/Charlotte/Default.htm">The Ritz Carlton</a> for their BIG DAY next year and have started booking vendors to help us bring their dreams to reality.<br /><br />Here is a little quote from Sean and Grace:<br /><br />"Sean and I got engaged in February 09 and soon after that we went on our wedding planner hunt! We interviewed several local planners and while they were all very nice, we simply didn't feel the chemistry that we felt with WATC. Tiffany was really warm and down-to-earth. From the very beginning she was extremely patient and helpful and answered all of our beginner questions. Tiffany is totally open to all of my input and she guides me in the areas that I am not as familiar with. She has also made herself available to me every time I've needed her, even when I just wanted one more sign of approval for my dress!!! ; ) All in all, WATC has been there for us every step of the way and I am more than certain that they will continue on that path until our BIG day...and maybe even after!!! Love you Baby Tiffany! ~ XOXO, Grace and Sean"<br /><br /><br /><br /><img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/tratliff_watc/v10.jpg" alt="Wedding Planner" border="0" /><br /><br /><img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/tratliff_watc/v11.jpg" alt="Wedding Planners" border="0" /><br /><br /><img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/tratliff_watc/v12.jpg" alt="Charlotte Wedding Planner" border="0" /><br /><br /><img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/tratliff_watc/v2.jpg" alt="Charlotte Wedding Planners" border="0" /><br /><br /><img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/tratliff_watc/v4.jpg" alt="Wedding Planner Charlotte" border="0" /><br /><br /><img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/tratliff_watc/v5.jpg" alt="Wedding Planners Charlotte" border="0" /><br /><br /><img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/tratliff_watc/v6.jpg" alt="Wedding Planner Charlotte NC" border="0" /><br /><br /><img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/tratliff_watc/v7.jpg" alt="Wedding Planners Charlotte NC" border="0" /><br /><br /><img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/tratliff_watc/v8.jpg" alt="Charlotte NC Wedding Planner" border="0" /><br /><br /><img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/tratliff_watc/v9.jpg" alt="Charlotte NC Wedding Planners" border="0" /><br /><br /><img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/tratliff_watc/v1.jpg" alt="Charlotte Wedding" border="0" />About Weddings and the Cityhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05211608636792889025noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3385133786903298377.post-68979789028893610582009-08-14T09:21:00.000-07:002009-08-14T10:15:50.911-07:00Lindsay + Blake ~ May 30thThe wedding season is in full force and we have been so busy that we have neglected our blog, but no more!!<br /><br />After working with Lindsay, Blake, and their parents on planning this wedding, we feel like we are a part of their family.

She knew exactly what she wanted! The BIG day took place in uptown Charlotte, at The Green, with the ceremony on the top tier, cocktail hour on the middle tier and the reception on the bottom tier in a clear top tent. Although Mother Nature worked against us most of the day, it stopped just in time for the ceremony and held off during the reception. It was absolutely gorgeous and full of color! Check out all the fun details involved with this wedding with the pictures below.<br /><br />A HUGE thanks for all the vendors involved that day for going above and beyond to make May 16th THE perfect day for Elle & Todd.
