AWP, May 28, 2008

Last Tuesday night was the monthly AWP (Assosciation of Wedding Professionals) meeting. It was held at the new Legacy Hotel in Rockville, Maryland. Most of you probably remember it as the Ramada Inn on Rockville Pike; in the past year, the hotel has changed ownership and been completely rennovated into a contemporary boutique lodging experience. Reminiscint of European getaways, the building very stylish without feeling fussy or uptight. The banquet and meeting area can comfortably hold a wedding reception for around 200 people.

We also had the pleasure of meeting the new owner of Fiore Floral, a local florist. They provided the flowers for Jaclyn & Charl's wedding May 17 - which we just happened to video! They did a fantastic job; check out some stills we pulled from Jeanette's footage of their wedding:
