Your small budget is our pleasure

At Fresh from the Kitchen LLC we understand being on a budget. When it comes to your wedding, or any event, staying on budget is even more imperative.

Where other caterer's may not like that you don't have much money to work with; we don't mind.

Your small budget helps us strech our creativity. It helps us think outside the box, and allows us to offer you something a little more unique that you may not see at every event.

Don't hesitate to call us. We want to work with you. So, please give us the opportunity.

Mrs. Hancock's Wedding Division

Written by Amy Bacon of Mrs. Hancock's for Fresh from the Kitchen LLC

If you indeed understand what a Wedding Planner and Coordinator actually does, then you’re a step-ahead of most Brides. (Truly!) Here’s the quick 4-1-1:


A lot of brides are certainly talented enough to plan a wedding, but how does one keep the emotion in check; make great decisions; book and keep appointments with numerous vendors; find the best pricing; AND hold down a full-time job, as well? Did I mention that you have friends, family, and a relationship to take care of, (not to mention yourself)? Oh and there is that little issue about being sure things run just as you want them to on the day-of...

We are your personal assistant. Period. We make phone calls for you, set appointments, follow-up and through, find the best pricing; recommend top and talented professionals, and so much more. Have a vision but aren't quite sure how to make it go? We do. We can help; from colors, dresses, decor, types of draperies, back lighting, up-lighting and more! We can help design your dream wedding! (Even if you're on a tight budget).

You’re thinking (because I can hear you….) “Wow, that must be super expensive!” Actually, it isn’t and may be less than 10% of your overall budget. Part of our job is to save you money, time, and alleviate stress. No one is better at that than Amy Bacon (our Division Head at Mrs. Hancock’s). The other part of our job is to sweat (okay, perspire), the details. WE perspire all the little details throughout the planning process (including but not limited to, reviewing contracts for you, creating your time-line for the day of the wedding, and a lot more). Then we run the rehearsal and work in conjunction with your team of wedding professionals on the day of the wedding to be sure things run perfectly (Read: according to plan!).

Let’s say on your special day you realize you had not spoken to your Bakery since you put the deposit down 120 days earlier. Wow. You forgot? Well, we wouldn’t, and didn’t. We called when you hired us and then we called again 24-hours prior to the wedding to confirm all the details; arrival time, decorations, final payments, etc. See? That’s OUR job.

How do we set ourselves apart and how do we go above and beyond? Well, we will share that with you when you hire us, because we don’t want to give away trade secrets here. Suffice us to say, you’ll be imminently pleased and well taken care of. We’ll pamper and spoil you all along the way, and when you need to vent, we even listen! Know that our reputation is at stake with each wedding we coordinate. We get and understand two simple words: CUSTOMER SERVICE and we're very good at what we do.

We understand you're on a budget (we're wives, we get that!). So, how do we save you money? We work with a lot of wedding vendors and they offer our clients great discounts (we never take referral fees!). Discounts you may not necessarily receive without our introduction.



Last but not least. We're really nice people; we go above and beyond for our brides. In our shop, you're not just another contract, another way to pay the rent. You're a one-of-a-kind bride with one-of-a-kind needs and we're going to do everything we can to take care of you; just like you were our sister.

So, please, know that we’re affordable and attainable. We offer a free consultation to meet with you, let you know what we can do to assist, educate you and ask questions surrounding things we know you haven’t thought of and so much more….



Please call 602.762.1174 or visit our website www.mrshancocks.com/weddings

Mrs. Hancock’s. When it’s all about you; not every one and everything else!

Shelly Love Photography




The name says it all. Michelle Love-Myers LOVES what she does and thus it is reflected in her work making for gorgeous images on your wedding day or special occasion.
I asked Michelle a few questions about her style and love of photography. Please enjoy the answers below.

What sets you apart from the competition?
What sets me apart is my unique style and the fun attitude I bring to each session or wedding. I call my style fashion + photojournalism because I blend dramatic, fashion-style portraits with candid photojournalistic moments.


Need more be said? Who doesn't want to look like they belong on the cover of a fashion magazine on their wedding day?

What is your favorite thing to photograph?
My favorite two things to photograph are the portraits of the bride and the first dance. I love fashion photography, and the bridal portraits are one of the funnest opportunities for the bride to strut her stuff. The first dance is great because it is an emotional release for the couple, so they always look especially happy and in love.

Why do you love photography?
I love what I do because I get to work with only the rad-est couples in town, and I get to be around people who are happy and in love. I feel blessed to be part of one of the happiest days in the lives of my fabulous clients.

I have personally worked with Michelle, and she is kind, attentive to detail, efficient, and an excellent photographer. She would appreciate the opportunity to photograph your event no matter the occasion.
Her detail, vision, and clarity will make your photos memorable; because you shouldn't just like your photos, you should LOVE them!
