A Work of Art

Sarah and Julian Mapp


On Saturday, May 16, 2009, Sarah & Julian began their voyage together, by making a commitment to one another in the sight of God, their family and friends. To make sure everything ran smoothly, for the couple, Unforgettably Yours Event Planning Service was elated to coordinate their wedding.

To begin the day, Sarah and Julian agreed to take a modernized approach, by doing their wedding photos before their wedding. Their first stop was downtown, in the heart of Lancaster City. Regina Martin, from Radiant Images Photography, used the setting to showcase that beauty is truly in the eyes of the beholder. The elements of history and contemporary, only enhanced the true love that elevated from Sarah and Julian. Even as, the pictures in front of the theater illustrated the nightlife of the city, the cobblestone walk way confirmed the historical trend of the past.

Next they were off, to a local farm near the church. Sarah and Julian, utilized the land by taking pictures with various backdrops; large ceremonial tents, open fields of grass, gardens of beautiful fresh flowers and rustic barns. The Best Man , 2 Groomsmen and handsome young Ringbearer looked distinguished in their sharp black tuxedos and red ties; while the Maid of Honor and 2 bridesmaids complemented them in their red dresses. The flower girl, looked adorable in her off white dress.

With minutes to spare, Unforgettably Yours, promptly started the wedding at 4pm. A beautiful service was taken place at Salem United Church of Christ, in Lancaster Pa. To make the day even more special, Sarah's father took on two very important roles. He not only, took the emotional walk down the aisle, to commence Sarah on her next journey, but he also participated with the ceremony, by officiating their wedding vows. After the ceremony, the 125 guests participated in a lovely bubble exit. Thousands of bubbles surrounded the couple, encircling their love for one another.

Following the lovely ceremony, the bridal party and guest retreated, to celebrate Sarah and Julian's reunion, at The Mulberry Arts Studios. Guest were able to re-acquaint themselves in the Louise Gallery, during an hour long cocktail service, catered by Platinum Catering. Upon, completion of cocktails, the guests were escorted upstairs, to the North Gallery. The buffet style dinner was even more alluring, with The Most mesmerizing decor. The detailed drapery , hardwood floors and brick walls, made the room not only "posh and cool," but memorable as well.

After dinner, the couple made the night even more unforgettable, by performing a choreographed dance routine, dancing to Monica's "Angel of Mine." Julian captivated his guest s, when he effortlessly, lifted Sarah on to his shoulders, spinning her around in mid-air. Such a breathtaking scene, almost made the dance seem dreamlike. Family and friends were spellbound by the love radiating from the two.

The remainder of the evening was filled with fun, laughter and love. The guest had a great time and most importantly, the bride and groom were happy that Unforgettably Yours Events , as there to bring their vision to fruition!
