Elegant Venue in a Rustic Country Atmosphere

CHARLESTON SKY

| THE WEDDED BLISS JAN-FEB 2018

BY CASSANDRA KEY

28

Charleston Sky is a brand new rustic wedding venue that truly captures the country atmosphere. Located in Cooper, Texas, this 5,400 square foot facility emanates rustic elegance both inside and outside the venue space.”

The outside area features a garden grove aesthetically arranged for picture perfect opportunities. There is also a gazebo built from a local grain bin top sitting next to the pond, and a bar, also built from a local grain bin, that can accommodate guests during the wedding reception.

The facility is designed to hold 165 cars in the parking lot located in the rear of the venue and up to 250 guests inside.

Once the doors are opened on the climate controlled barn-style venue, you'll see wood and rustic tin throughout, a state-of-the-art sound system, and an eye-catching staircase winding down from the bridal suite. Uplighting is installed along the walls and a photo booth is set up in the corner of the venue so the couple and their guests can capture all the memories of the big day. Caterers will also love

part of the venue is the barn tin inside and the attention to detail throughout the different locations. From the windmill ceiling fans and photo booth to the plethora of amenities and unique location, Charleston Sky is a new venue worth exploring. “This venue is set in a true country atmosphere,” Kevin said. “With cows next door and horses across the street, be prepared to say 'Wow!' repeatedly during your tour.”

Charleston Sky may be the new kid on the country block, but spots are already filling up fast. “Couples are touring and booking 2018 quickly, and it appears we will be booked one year in advance soon.”

Future married couples shouldn't wait to walk around and through this rustic country, but elegant venue and speak with Lisa and Kevin.

“We are there with you from start to finish to make sure your big day is everything you hoped it would be.” And with an atmosphere and aesthetic like Charleston Sky, couples will find that everything will be exactly as they visioned.

Capturing Moments Full of Life and Emotion.

DARKROOM IDEA PHOTOGRAPHY

BY CASSANDRA KEY

Bobbie Dyer isn't just a photographer – she is a wife, mother, daughter, seeker of light and truth, creative artist, hopeless romantic, and an old soul. She spent many of her younger years in a darkroom where she not only developed film, but her love for photography.

Capturing moments full of life and emotion became engraved upon her soul.

Darkroom Idea clients will not only receive beautiful photos and quality products, but ease of mind when sharing their special day with the team, and most importantly, the timeless preservation of fleeting moments. It is within those moments that beauty unfolds and Bobbie loves capturing and sharing those precious times through her art. “Seeking to capture the ordinary in extraordinary ways is what I love most about my work. A kiss is so much more than a kiss when shared between two people who

The Hampton Inn & Suites Mount Pleasant isn't just another hotel – it's a place that focuses on the little things that make a big difference, a place to create memorable experiences worth sharing, and a place that guarantees a happy stay. In fact, part of their brand message is that making each guest happy makes them happy, so to be satisfied isn't good enough. The team at Hampton Inn & Suites wants to make sure that anyone staying with them feels at home and is pleased beyond expectation.

5 Things To Know Before Buying Your Wedding Dress ➳➳KNOW YOUR BUDGET - No matter where you fall on the budget spectrum, factor in extra money for alterations, lingerie, shoes and any accessories.

➳➳KEEP IN MIND LOCATION, SEASON & THEME

A ceremony in a grand church calls for a big ball gown, while a seaside ceremony allows for something more casual.

➳➳KNOW YOUR SILHOUETTE - Have an idea of your

favorite dress style, fabric, embellishments, color, even a designer.

➳➳TAKE PHOTOS - Look at photos online and in magazines and then save whatever you like.

➳➳IT’S OKAY TO LOVE THE FIRST DRESS!

CHECKLIST

Mark Your Calender for Your Special Day Beauty Essentials 9-12 MONTHS BEFORE YOUR WEDDING ❏ Determine your beauty budget. Don't forget to include any pre-wedding treatments, such as facials, in your plans. ❏ Contact a professional hair stylist and makeup artist to discuss bridal services.

Don't be afraid to get price lists from several salons to help narrow your options. ❏ Encourage your wedding party to make a decision on their hair and makeup services, too. ❏ Start a beauty binder with notes and pictures of hair and makeup styles you like.

If you're considering a new hair style or color for your wedding, now's the time to try it!

6-9 MONTHS BEFORE YOUR WEDDING ❏ Begin skincare treatments (facial, back facial, microderm) and hair removal programs with your aesthetician.

Schedule hair & makeup for you and your bridal party early enough on the big day to meet your photographer for pictures!

1 MONTH BEFORE YOUR WEDDING ❏ Get a trim and touch up your roots if your hair is colored. ❏ Begin an optional at-home teeth whitening treatment, or schedule a professional one. ❏ Get your final facial to ensure maximum glow for your wedding.

2 WEEKS BEFORE YOUR WEDDING ❏ To release tension, enjoy a relaxing massage for yourself and your groom. ❏ Schedule a haircut, men’s manicure, and a facial for the groom.

❏ Confirm all beauty appointments. To save time, pre-pay for services scheduled before the day of the wedding.

❏ Begin a manicure nail treatment regimen to ensure the strength of your natural nails.

❏ Get brows, bikini line, etc. waxed.

3-6 MONTHS BEFORE YOUR WEDDING ❏ Schedule hair and makeup appointments for the big day! ❏ Begin hair conditioning treatments on damaged hair; continue until your big day! ❏ Continue with skin and waxing services.

If you and your party plan to do your own makeup, start playing with different colors, looks, and styles!

The Wedding Day

❏ Apply self-tanner if you're using it, or schedule a professional application for the day or two before. ❏ Start packing a bag with everything you will need for the big day. ❏ Give clear directions to the wedding site to everyone in the bridal party. Discuss arrival times and arrange for a bridesmaid to deliver any hairpieces or accessories to the site so you don't have to worry about keeping track of them on the big day.

This would be a great time to schedule a relaxing mani/pedi party for you and your lovelyl bridesmaids!

Talk to your photographer about scheduling bridal party formals at the venue 3-4 hours before the ceremony.The flowers are at their peak; hair and makeup is fine-tuned; the kids are still clean; and there’s an air of anticipation. Your photographer can split the formals to take as many images as possible without the bride and groom seeing each other, then completing the session after the ceremony. This reduces the time your guests have to wait at the reception and you newlyweds eliminate missing out on any part of the festivities.

Professional Catering CHECKLIST

11 Questions to Narrow A List of Potential Caterers ➳➳ ARE THEY AVAILABLE ON THE DAY OF YOUR EVENT? ➳➳ WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THE PRICE? How many hours are included? What is the overtime fee?

➳➳ HOW MUCH IS THE DEPOSIT? When is it due and is it refundable? Is a payment plan offered for the entire bill?

➳➳ ARE THEY LICENSED AND INSURED? Means the

caterer has met local health department standards and carries liability insurance. Make sure they also have a liquor license if serving alcohol is being considered.

➳➳ WILL THEY BE WORKING OTHER EVENTS ON THE SAME DAY? Be sure if the caterer does have other events, your wedding will get the staff and attention it deserves.

➳➳ DO THEY SPECIALIZE IN CERTAIN TYPES OF FOOD? Organic, locally sourced, ethnic or gluten-free? Fresh or frozen? Hire a caterer that specializes in the type of cuisine wanted for the event.

➳➳ DO THEY OFFER FULL SERVICE? Table settings, bar service and cleanup?

➳➳ WILL A WAIT STAFF, TABLES, CHAIRS, PLATES,

NAPKINS, AND SALT/PEPPER SHAKERS BE PROVIDED? If a caterer doesn't outfit their events with these necessary items, and your wedding venue doesn't have them on hand either, you'll have to rent them yourself, which can quickly add up.

➳➳ IS AN EARLY TASTE TESTING AVAILABLE? Giving

the dinner menu a test run early allows for an informed decision.

➳➳ CAN THEY PROVIDE THE WEDDING CAKES? Ask

to see past examples to get an idea of their cake-baking skills.

➳➳ HOW DOES DELIVERY, SETUP AND BREAKDOWN

WORK? These details are needed to coordinate with the event venue to determine a time for setting up.
