The Royal Wedding-a new look!

So everyone is all a-flutter about the "look" of the Royal Wedding. The brides dress.....a simple, yet elegant dress-with sleeves! I thought it was wonderful to see lace sleeves. Very feminine!..and now it seems that American brides are re-thinking the taboo of anyone else in the bridal party wearing white. Apparently, according to a national morning news program, many in the USA thought the Maid of Honor and all the little flowers girls in white gave the wedding a very crisp look.  We will see how this all plays out. All in all a very lovely wedding!   

Getting what you paid for!

I was listening to GMA (good Morning America) as  I was getting ready for work this morning. They ran a story about a bride and groom who hired a videographer to shoot their wedding. What they got was really a bunch of nothing! They got big blank spaces, shots of the grass and a little bit of the bridal party walking towards the camera....in short-a lot of nothing. It was just awful. Hire a professional! They paid $500.00 to this guy. $500.00 for a video of your wedding,  plus editing? If it seems to cheap to be true-it probably is!
Especially when it is a one shot deal like the most important day of your life! Choose a professional with a track record-whatever vendor you are using. Check out this link to our website page, "Why You  Should Use a Professional Agency"!       http://www.jandavis.com/professional_agency.html

Jan Davis receives the Minority Business Enterprise Award

What an honor it was to received the MBE Award! The ceremony was at UMUC and was very well attended. One never expects to be recognized for their hard work when they own their own business, so this was a real surprise and a real treat.

Mardi Gras

              All of our events this month are Mardi Gras. We love Mardi Gras and we do it so well!!!!!

Mardi Gras is special to me because my father grew up in Louisana, so I was raised celebrating Fat Tuesday with Zydeoc music and King Cake.  The real Mardi Gras is March 8 this year, but we have started partying early with our clients! Lots of fun!  Call now if you want celebrate too! 703-461-7253!

Great Event!

It is a wonderful Holiday Season in so many ways. We are so grateful to have such wonderful corporate clients! JDE&E did the event planning and decor for this great client-and we brought the CEO in with a dynamic laser show!

Lovely weddings!

I wanted to share my favorite picture of our beautfiul bride Sara. She married a wonderful guy named Dan, and it was such a special wedding because she and her groom are such wonderful, kind people. There were some lovely traditional elements, as well as some great surprises-like the first dance starting out so romantic, but turning into a crazy rap piece with a cleverly choreographed Dan and Sara entertaining all of the guests! This is a big trend in weddings today-not necessarily this kind of dance!......but having the  bride and groom put their signatures on their event in a non-traditional or unique way. It makes it so personal...and in this case...it made it really fun!  Here is our beautiful Sara getting out of her limo. I just love this shot of her!  We wish Sara and Dan all the happiness that life can bring! Thank you for letting us be a part of it!
