Taviea & Zeb – 8.7.10

Tuesday, August 31st, 2010

Hi Everyone,

Taviea & Zeb were such a lovely couple!  From the beginning Taviea knew what she wanted.  She had a lovely sense of style and decided that purple & red were the color schemes that were to be held throughout the reception.  For the wedding ceremony itself she decided to go all white. 

Her ideas were simple: Chic, elegant, & ABSOLUTELY FUN!  She wanted to make sure that everyone had fun.  From the fabulous Photobooth to the fun groom’s cake, everyone enjoyed a little bit of eye candy! :-)

Her wedding was held at a gorgeous facility with all the bells & whistles.  This place had “picture perfect” location in almost every nook & cranny in that place!  I loved The Bell Tower!  The service was fantastic, the food was amazing, & our catering manager Avina was so wonderful to work with! 

Here are a few pics of the wedding.  Of course I took them with  my brand new camera.  I’ve really got to take some lessons in photography!  Shhh…I threw in a picture of the Zeb having some fun with their DJ Cesar with LG Entertainers.  Maybe an aspiring DJ?  Hmm…..to be continued!

Enjoy!

Happy Planning

It’s getting cold out there! What to do with coats during events

Friday, December 4th, 2009

The other day I attended a wonderful networking event in Downtown Houston. 

The night was BRRRR..cold!  Not like today (December 4, 2009) in Houston,TX and it’s snowing!  BUT it was chilly out so as anyone would do, I brought my coat.

When I arrived I asked the Host if there was a coat check so that I can leave it there and not have to worry about lugging around my big coat.  I was informed that they did not have a coat check! :(

So it got me thinking, although Houston is not a very cold city, I feel that it should be important to offer that service when doing an event in the winter time.  I cannot begin to tell you how crowded it got and having to carry a coat just added to the “cozy” but tight atmosphere.

So in retrospect if you have an event during the winter it might be a good idea to ask the facility if they can offer you a coat check person at the front.  They can keep an eye on your coat and your guests can have FUN at your event instead of having to worry about where their coat is.  You can check with them to see what if any are the additional rates.

Happy Planning!

Sweet Footie! Comfortable Footies for your guests!

Wednesday, November 11th, 2009

Hello my friends!  It has been a very long time since I’ve been blogging! 

I recently had a wedding (Jessica & Jonathan) that had an absolutely wonderful and ingenious idea!

Ladies, and men :-) , have you ever gone to a wedding were the music is great? The party is happenin’ and you just want to dance the night away?  Only to find yourself after one hour of dancing that you feet gave out?  That they don’t want anything to do with you?

Well have I a solution for you! LOL, I sound like a infomercial!  I’ve recently discoved a clever idea to save those painful feet from pain and suffering…Are you ready for this?

Lightweight Nylon-Pima Cotton Footies!

These are simple Nylon Footies that can be offered to the guests so that they have have comfy feet at your wedding.  What Jessica, my bride, did is that she had bowl of chocolate brown footies (to match her wedding) next to the DJ with a sign reading:

“When your feet are falling apart…Put these on for a fresh new start! ”

What a wonderful idea!  That way your guests can take off their shoes without fear of getting them dirty, running their pantyhose, or worried about getting splinters on their feet!

This is just a wonderful gesture to show that you care for them and that you want them to enjoy your wedding instead of crying over “spilled feet!”

Here is a website that sells the little “heavenly” footies!
