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!

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

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
