Well are you ready for the details of this amazing wedding? You’ve seen their love story, and then you saw the trailer. Now comes the amazing photos from Katie Cassidy Photography! To say we loved this wedding is an understatement. We were not only so thankful to be involved, but overwhelmed by everyone’s generosity. Because of this and the requirement of keeping it to only 50 guests, we were really able to focus on the details and make this as personal as possible. Check it all out!
Yes, the bridesmaids boquets were in bedazzled popcorn containers. You can’t have a movie theme without popcorn!
This amazing custom invitation ensemble was designed after the movies, but the poem on the right was written by Tiffany the night she met Mark. Obviously sparks flew with their instant connection!
Tiffany and Mark chose to have a first look so he could check out her custom made gown from Binzario before everything got started.
Alright everyone, find your character and your table, grab a seat and enjoy the show!
Thanks again to all the Wish Granters who participated! We loved working with all of you! Good luck to the McCullers and may you life Happily Ever After!

Now that you’ve seen the Love Story, we want to show you the big day! Mark and Tiffany were finally joined in marriage on February 12, 2012, at TPC Craig Ranch in McKinney. Because of their love of movies, we went with the theme “Old Hollywood”. With a custom made gown, amazing props and decor and beautiful lighting, it all came alive for their special day. Once again, Dulock Productions did an amazing job capturing the special moments and created this amazing tralier. Check out this little taste and we’ll be back with the fabulous photos from Katie Cassidy Photography!

In February, Each & Every Detail was thrilled to be included in one of the first Dallas area weddings held through Wish Upon a Wedding. Wish Upon a Wedding is a charity that celebrates the courage, determination, and spirit of couples in love during their most challenging times. They work with couples facing terminal illness and serious life-altering circumstances, helping them to have a wedding day when it seems impossible. Mark and Tiffany are an amazing couple who have faced – and are facing – so many difficult hurdles. We were so excited to be part of their big day, along with many other Dallas area vendors who also volunteered their services and became Wish Granters. To give you an idea of what Tiffany and Mark are about and how they came to this point, we’d like to first share the Love Story film that Dulock Productions created. We’ll be sharing more film and photos of their wedding day, but to see what this is truly about, you have to watch this first. Be warned, you will need Kleenex!

First look photos are a growing trend in the wedding industry today. Photographers love them because they have more time to capture the special moment (plus they don’t have to duck around guests to get the shot). Planners love them because they save time. But do couples love them? We’re going to talk a little about the benefits of first look photos, as well as the advantages to following a more traditional path. The most important thing to remember is that this is a very personal decision that the bride and groom should make together. Definitely discuss it between yourselves, and be confident that either way, the first time you see your partner all dolled up on your wedding day will be a special and memorable moment.
So what exactly are first look photos? This is a time planned ahead of the ceremony where the bride and groom can meet up and spend a few minutes together prior to the wedding, instead of seeing each other for the first time as the bride walks down the aisle. Usually, the photographer and/or videographer will capture a few pictures of the emotional first glimpse that the bride and groom get of each other, then fade away into the background to allow the couple to share some alone time. This is a very special moment for the bride and groom. It’s a great way to ease everyone’s stress level before the walk down the aisle. It can also be a moment in which you can be fully yourself, without worrying about how you appear in the eyes of your guests. It gives you a chance to experience all the wonderful, dizzying emotions of the day – together.
Many couples, on the other hand, like to preserve the tradition of the bride and groom not seeing each other before the wedding. Many of my brides who do not want first look photos want to experience that rush of nerves walking down the aisle. Sometimes, the groom is very adamant about not seeing the bride before the ceremony, wanting to experience the first look with his family and friends. Occasionally this can be a sticking point for more traditional parents or grandparents, and giving in gracefully can give you a bargaining chip for negotiations concerning other parts of the ceremony or reception.
Photographers and planners will often advocate for first look photos because of the timeline benefits. More light for photos is a plus for many outdoor venues. Additionally, taking some photos together before the ceremony can smooth out the transition from ceremony to reception and bring the bride and groom together with their guests much more quickly as many photographers ask for 20-30 minutes with the couple after the ceremony to get some couple shots. These factors are a bonus – but they shouldn’t be the basis for your decision as to whether to do first look photos or not. As a couple, you should weigh the pros and cons together and decide what is best for you. We try to present this as just an option for our couples. Always go with what your heart tells you, regardless of pressure from any of your vendors.

We are so excited that Each & Every Detail is listed in the Style Me Pretty’s Little Black Book. The Little Black Book is a highly edited list of wedding service providers, with anyone from vendors to wedding planners who are only of the highest quality. We are excited and honored to have been added to such a prestigious list. The Little Black Book is intended to offer the Style Me Pretty readers a stress-free experience when it comes to locating vendors, all the while ensuring a high level of quality. Vendors are chosen by recommendations from Style Me Pretty readers, industry professionals, or a recent bride. They are looking for rave reviews as to why a particular vendor deserves to be in the Little Black Book, not just a referral. After receiving a recommendation, Style Me Pretty looks into the vendor’s business, their portfolio, their experience, their time in the industry, and get to know their personality. Finally, after all of this research, if Style Me Pretty is confident that the vendor is fabulous, they offer them an invitation to be a part of their book. We are honored to be a part of this book!
