Today Leah picked up her encasement and told us that her husband, Chris, was just deployed to Afganistan, and wouldn't be able to see it until he got back. 
In all the hustle and bustle of preparing for his deployment, they hadn't found the time to pick the shadowbox up before he left. The sad thing is, in this scenario, Chris was the one who really wanted the shadowbox arranged with the flowers and the wedding items that were included. To quote Leah, "he's the scrapbooky one in our family". Had we known that Chris was being deployed, we would have made an extra effort to remind them about picking it up. Chris and Leah are an awesome couple, and we wish Chris safety during his time serving our country.

We had another sweet groom come in with his bride to pick their encasement, which was also a shadowbox. Emily was doing the consultation, and the couple were discussing using fabric from their wedding as a background for their flowers. The groom asked if Emily could "puddle" the fabric behind the flowers, so that it appeared that the bouquet had been tossed onto satin sheets. Now how's THAT for romantic!
