From Wodam to Odum ...

Kristen and Brian were married yesterday and I could not be happier for them!





I have known Kristen and Brian for about five years now. Brian, who is affectionately called by his last name, Odum, and my husband, Tim, were college fraternity brothers and have been friends since. Kristen and Odum actually caught both the bouquet and garter at Tim and I's wedding and their engagement then quickly followed. So, of course, when Kristen and Odum asked me to assist them with their wedding planning, I was thrilled!

Kristen was such a wonderful bride throughout the planning process. She was organized, thoughtful, and always smiling. Kristen really wanted a wedding that reflected both her and Odum's personalities and that is exactly what she got. Kristen pulled off a wedding full of personal touches and lots of fun while sticking to a budget.

My favorite part of the wedding was the flash mob. Kristen's bridesmaids organized a suprise flash mob for the new Mr. and Mrs. Odum and it was pulled off flawlessly. You can see the video of the flash mob by clicking here.

Of course this day would not have been possible without the help of some amazing vendors. Here is the contact information for a few that I would highly recommend ...

Ceremony and Reception Venue - Rachel at Pepper Plantation
Caterer - Francesca at Newton Farms Catering
Bar - Craig at Mix Premier Bartending
Rentals - Greg at Snyder Event Rentals
Ceremony and Reception Music - Ben with Triple Lindy
Florist - Beth at Wild Flowers, Inc.
Photographer - Liz at Liz Duren Photography

Hopefully we can get Mrs. Odum to write a little blog post on all of her fabulous D.I.Y. projects at some point. More to come on that.

A big congratulation to Kristen and Odum!
