Sasha and Raidel's fabulous and perfect day!

02-06-10

I met up with Sasha approximately a month prior to her wedding on a VERY cold day at a local Starbucks to go over the details of her wedding and like every bride, she wanted to make sure she had absolutely nothing to worry about on her big day and be assured their first day as one would be nothing less than fabulous! While Sasha went over the details of her wedding I smiled and knew right then that her stylishness was going to be shown everywhere! Sure enough... from her zebra print 6 inch heels to the purple spikey sugar flower on their cake! Their tables were covered with purple shine linens and beautiful raspberry/navy margarita dot overlays, to compliment these colors she had mahognay chiavari chairs with chartreuse cushions and napkins. The couple also hired Lilly from I heart Sugar Sugar to do their awesome candy buffet, Lilly did a spectacular job! The day was perfect! The wind had me running up and down after a few blown away napkins and menus but the end result was all worth it! Take a look...

Eddie & Michelle... on the river

Saturday, November 14th 2009 Eddie and Michelle tied the knot, FINALLY :) Where else would Eddie and Michelle celebrate this joyous occasion? Well, none other than the lounge/bar that you will always catch them at almost every Friday for happy hour! Finnegan's River! For those who have been there must be thinking, "a wedding at Finnegan's???" Yea, I thought the same... lol until they took me to scope out Finnegan's top terrace where they envisioned their reception to take place. I was floored on what a beautiful view this place had of the Miami lights and river. Definitely a hidden gem. Michelle and Eddie hired me to do their full planning, and boy was I excited especially after visiting their venue. I just love when a couple trusts me so much to take care of and make the decisions of all the details. I had been looking forward to this wedding since for oh so long!! Their colors were apple green and yellow with a river like theme, after all, their reception was right next to the Miami river. The weather was PERFECT, my only enemy that day was the gusts of wind that were blowing out all the candles! But I would take blown out candles over a rainy day anytime!

Beautiful Shot of their church:

At Finnegans...

Their centerpieces consisted of 3 cylinders filled with river rocks and water and floating candles... the tall cylinder had a Beta fish swimming around which the guests took home at the end of the night!

Apples and leaves were used as escort cards which apparently also served as snacks since guests were munching them away lol

River Rocks were used as their "guest book" as guests left their kind words on rocks

Their beautiful and delicious cake by Sweets By Janina

Michelle and Eddie and her infamous feather inspired by "Carrie Bradshaw" in Sex and The City, only Michelle and Sarah Jessica Parker can pull this off.... Michelle looked stunning!

Michelle and Eddie: Thank you so much for letting me be a part of such an important day for you both and of course for Sabrina as well. I had so much fun planning this special day for you and feel so honored that you let me handle it all. Congratulations and may God Bless your marriage and family! Michelle, please let me know how your plane ride to Europe went! :D

Barby and Carlos tie the knot!

Barby and Carlos met back in 2006 by a mutual friend that knew Barby since middle school and knew Carlos since elementary. This friend knew that there would be an immediate connection once they met. The friend was right because 3 years later they tied the knot! By the way, that friend... is ME :) Carlos proposed nearly two months after my own wedding just when I was going through planning withdrawl from my own planning (lol) so it was perfect timing! I immediately went into planning mode! It was so much fun planning this wedding from Day One with them, after all I am responsible for this love connection :o)

On Saturday August 1st, 2009, Barby and Carlos said their I Do's at the church of St. Rose of Lima in Miami Shores with their reception held at the Coral Gables Woman's Club. Barby wanted wanted her reception to have that romantic feel, and she got it! The tables and chair covers were ivory linens with latte chair sashes, centerpieces were 3 water filled cylinders with a floating hot pink orchid and candle in each. The room was dimmed as low as sight can bare with hot pink up lighting giving the room the romantic touch!

Here are some pics to share:

Maggie & Luis' Tropical Chic Wedding

Saturday, July 25, 2009 Maggie and Luis tied the knot whether mother nature liked it or not! Maggie and Luis' vision of their big day was to have their nuptials on the beach with some nice ocean breeze, however, living in good ole' Florida that's a risky gamble to take in the summer with mother nature! Unfortunately, they did not have their beach front wedding because of the weather :( The ceremony took place in the Tiffany Ballroom in Newport Beachside Resort, still giving it a "beachy" feel with some shells and starfish decor on the aisle seats. The ceremony was still beautiful but not more beautiful than the bride herself! Maggie looked stunning and you can just tell by the look of her hubby's face at the end of the aisle! Following the ceremony was their fantabulous reception! Here are some pics of their day:











..And here's the happy couple...




Maggie and Luis: Thank you so much for letting me be part of your special day! Wish you a happy and healthy life together! :) Congratulations!
