	<p>Designing weddings is one of our greatest pleasures.  It is a process of investigation and discovery.  Our initial interviews take great pains to uncover personal visions, favorite colors, personal life themes, favorite flowers, moving experiences, memorable occasions, haunting scents.  In short, anything that might bring to the surface a germ of an idea that can be turned into a palette of colors and a design theme.</p>

	<p>We have had bride&#8217;s mothers bring us white paper doves, spectacular silk saris, boxes of china shards combed from the family beach, their personal scarf collection.  We have had brides bring us fossilized stones, works of art, shells, swatches of fabric, pictures from magazines, their wedding invitations.  In each case, what is brought to us is the jumping off point for brainstorming, free association, recollections.  Our most successful weddings result in uncovering an idea that resonates with the bride and groom&#8217;s personal histories growing up and from their life together.  Sometimes the budget calls for creative approaches to making the vision of this great day a reality.  Creativity, flexibility and resourcefulness on our part and the clients&#8217; makes all things possible <span class="caps">AND</span> the magic happen.  </p>
