Colleen and Dave are two of the coolest people I’ve ever had the pleasure of calling clients.  We have entirely too much in common to be coincidence, so I blame it on fate that they found me.  How many ferret loving, Rock Band playing, Ford Probe owners could there possibly be in a 100 mile radius?  Ok, technically the Probe isn’t mine – it’s Marc’s, but still.  I USED to own one and there’s still one in my driveway, so I say it counts.    OH, and our wedding colors were the SAME – pink and green.  Eerie.  I think Colleen and I were sisters in another life.  Anyway, Colleen and Dave had their wedding at The Mill at Spring Lake Heights in NJ and despite the rain, it was an amazing day.  Lots of fun people, lots of color and lots of love.  Check out the photos…

Carlo’s Bakery, from TLC’s Cake Boss, worked their confectionery magic on the cake.
