Thank You!!!!

We got some fabulous news today from our friend, Evan Reitmeyer , that we made it into "the knot: Best of 2008" issue (in stores now!) !!!  We are super excited!!  This is a national publication that highlights the "best of" wedding vendors across the country.  The knot gets their information from brides who have reviewed their vendors and voted for their favorites.  We are honored to be among the select few from the Washington, DC Metro area that were chosen.

 This is only our fourth year in this fabulous business and our second recognition (WUSA9's Best in D.C. A-List 2006).  We are thrilled to realize that our brides (and grooms, of course!) appreciate our work enough to take the time to give us a shout out!  We love what we do and look forward to working with the future couples who will come our way.  Thank you to everyone who voted for us (honestly, we didn't even know we'd been "nominated")... we are truly touched!

Are there enough exclamations points in this post?!!!  I didn't think so.  ! - k(!)

Babies are so cute!

We went to North Carolina a few days ago to visit my sister, brother-in-law, and 3 month old niece.  We had a great time and, of course, took some (285) pictures (!).  These are some of the highlights.  Babies are so cute...     -k

Up to date!

It's just never a good idea to give two people who are terrible diary / journal-keepers a blog and expect them to keep it updated!  Sigh.  I hereby pledge to do my best to keep this blog interesting and current.  No more than one week will pass between posts.  

Ummm... yeah, we'll see how long that lasts.  :) 

Anyway... what have we been up to?  Well, we had the chance to assist our favorite photographer, Kate Triano, a couple of weeks ago.  The wedding was on Leap Day, 2/29/08, and the couple, Tom and Junellyn, were great!  Pern had a great time hanging out with Tom before the ceremony and he captured some cool shots at Starbucks (it was were Tom and Junelyn met).  Here are some of our favorite pictures from their big day.  -k

Waiting on a sample...

The transition to offering photography packages has been really exciting!  We have learned tons of new stuff in the past year and are having loads of fun trying it all out.  We have redone our website, redesigned our logo, finally got a P.O.Box in Leesburg (the old one was in Chantilly) and are now working on our new sample albums.  We assisted our friend and photographer, Kate Triano, a couple of weeks back and are anxiously awaiting an album that we put together from that wedding.  We'll let you know how it comes out.  We could even show it to you in person!  :)  We are currently booking videography AND photography for 2008 and even 2009!  Send us an email or give us a call if you are interested in setting up a meeting.  We look forward to hearing from you!  - k

Heritage Hunt Bridal Show

We participated in the Heritage Hunt Bridal Show today in Gainesville, VA.  This was the fourth or fifth bridal show we have done since starting Blue Square in 2004, and by far the most fun!  We met many brides, moms of brides, and friends of brides and enjoyed talking to each and every one of them.  Last year we had a less-than-ideal location and felt rather invisible for the majority of the time.  This year... we ran out of flyers!  It was non-stop!   We had a great time.  If you are one of the brides we met with, good luck with your wedding plans!  We hope to hear from you soon... -K

Welcome!
