A beautiful wedding cake was made for Sarah and Joel Kirsch for their New Years Eve wedding at the Bloomfield Radisson on Woodward . After the bride and groom cut the cake it was put on the sweet table. The cake was from Party Cakes in Berkley.
The colors of the wedding were blue and silver. The grooms mom found beautiful silver pieces at estate sales to be incorporated in the centerpieces. David Heidt did all the flowers and hung small white chandeliers over 1/2 the tables. The flowers, all in white, were low so all the guests could talk and see each other. Sandy made her delicious candied nuts, which were put on the tables along with chocolate. The tables looked beautiful. All the linens were from Chair Covers and Linens in Madison Heights
The chuppah was 10 x 10 and on the "stage" so everyone could see the ceremony. Her 18 attendants were all standing behind the parents and they Skyped the ceremony so a great aunt who could not travel could watch the ceremony. Isn't technology wonderful ?
What a wonderful way to start the evening off, with a little split of champagne, but this champagne was not only your place card, it was CHOCOLATE! 
Friends since middle school, the grooms mom, Sandy Stiebel Kirsch, David Heidt, the decorator and Andrea Rott Solomon, the party planner, all had a great evening! We were all finding it hard to believe "how did we get here!"
I know not to many people really watch the father/daughter dance and the mother/son dance. But of all the traditions, this is the one that I hold close to my heart and love to watch. Just thinking of how close all my girls are with their dad, and how they all love to dance with him, it brings tears to my eyes as I think of this for my own daughter(s) (one just got engaged) The sunken dance floor made it easy for everyone to watch as the bride and groom danced with their parents to Louie Armstrong.
What a cleaver idea putting a clock on the sweet table, for New Years. It was a beautifully laid out table, colorful and full of what the bride loved, fruit and cookies. Of course the hotel added their special touches and foods. No one went home hungry AND at midnight they brought out a slider bar. Hot, hot hamburgers with all the fixings.
The cutest was the brides sister made special little New Years Eve hats for just the bridal party to wear. She made a beautiful white one for the bride where everyone else got a black one. I had my hat on, I was there to the end....2am when the band quit. A great time was had by all. The hotel was filled with all their guests and a brunch was only 8 hours away!
A beautiful bridal party and lots of fun also. Joel and Sarah, I wish you many years of happiness and fun. Because this is a fun couple. Mazel Tov on your marriage.
They had couches and tables on the dance floor from Todd at Colonial Rental, Laura Rice Photography was their photographer from Ferndale, and Charles Brandt did the video. His company is called First to Last Productions. Charles W. Brandt can be reached at: firsttolastproductions@gmail.
