Hi Everyone!
Ok, I am going to back track on this one a little bit. Last year I had the DISTINCT & most HONORED pleasure of planning probably one of the most special & one of the most heartwarming events of my career. This special event confirmed to me that love can last and marriage is truely one-of-a-kind. The event that I planned was the 50th wedding annivesary of Liza’s parents. It was such a lovely event surrounded by all of their beautiful daughters & their families! I loved every minute of it!
So when it came time to plan Liza’s wedding, Liza & Clari once again decided that having a wedding planner for Liza’s important day was extremely important. She wanted to ENJOY her wedding rather that having to STRESS over her day.
She incorporated both cultures . She had lovely Greek music playing during the cocktail hour and surprised her guests with a group of high school Greek Dancers to entertain throughout dinner. And decided to open the dance floor to Suavamente by Elvis Crespo.
To this couple, being of Mexican & Greek culture, was very important to them. They wanted to display their proud culture and traditions. I love it when couples incorporate their cultures into the wedding. And guess who blessed the dinner? Her 4 yearl old nephew! He was just sooo cute! He blessed the food with “God is good, God it great, Let us thank him for our food. How to we eat quietly!”
Here are some AMAZING pictures graciously provided by the lovely LOVELEE PHOTOGRAPHY! Margaret did such and amazing job and captured the Groom’s PANATHINAIKOS themed cake so well! It was too much fun. Thanks LoveLee! Oooh forgot about the cute dog that was part of the wedding, You rock Rocky M.D.! 
Side note: Image above from my new Panoramic camera. Like it?

What can I say about Courtney & Ben? They were such a sweet couple that every minute of the planning was fun & fantastic!
Along with her SUPER MOM Toni, we planned an amazing event! She and her mom made for an amazing team! They were such a wonderfully organized duo and knew exactly what they wanted! Watching the cohesion between the two of them and fun that they shared with each other made me SMILE! It warmed my heart and made me think of my little one and wished the same for when she gets married.
Courtney & Ben, congratulations and may you have constant and forever wedding bliss!!!
The wedding & reception was held at the gorgeous Chateau Polonez in Cypress,TX . We feared that rain would be upon us but prayed and prayed very hard that it stopped literally just in time!!!
Here are some FABULOUS pictures from the amazing Ruven Rivera from Allure Photography. He was such a pleasure to work with him! Thanks Rueven! If you look hard enough you might little old me!

Hi Everyone,
It’s been awhile! I’ve been pleasantely busy! Which is nice!
I recently did my very first Indian-Catholic wedding. Not only did I plan their wedding, I also planned the gorgeous event the night before. Most popular and well known name for it is either a Mehendi event or the Sangeet.
Millie & Deepu were such a lovely couple! I loved planning every minute with her and learning so much of their culture made me appreciate it so much more!
She wanted a more trendy Indian wedding. So we ventured out did some gorgeous draping and designed her wedding with a Modern Indian twist.
Millie had discerning tastes and knew exactly what she wanted. From the wonderful outside catering food to the fantastic and rockin’ DJ playing some amazing tunes the night was fabulous! She even had a gelato station! That’s right folks a gelato station filled with 4 absolutely yummy flavors!
Here are some (not so great ) personal pics. These are just teasers as I wait for some fabulous pics from the photographer.
Enjoy!
Happy Planning!

On March 13, 2010 I had the sincere pleasure of working with such an adorable couple! The story that her father, best man, & maid of honor described them to a T!
Catherine was a wonderful bride who was always calm, cool, & collected and always happy! She decided to go a fresh spring time wedding.
As this was my first time ever doing a Jewish wedding, I was truely excited to see the ceremony and get familiar with the traditions that they have.
Some of my favorite things of this wedding:
In lieu of table numbers she created a gorgeous frame with a photograph of each city that they had visited. Guests loved going through the room looking for the Costa Rica table, New York table, or Austin table. What was really cute about it is that we left a metallic sharpie on each table and each guest was encouraged to sign warm wishes on these frames.
Another very cute idea that I thought was very thoughtful and giving were the party favors that she had selected. In lieu of party favors she donated money to her favorite charity! She decided that since she loved pets so much, she donated to her local animal shelter. Each place setting had a picture of their dog and a little note indicating the donation in their name.
Here are a few pics of the wonderful event. Abbie Flynn with Abbie Flynn photography in Houston,TX created these absolutely gorgeous images! She truly was a joy to work with! Thanks Abbie!
Happy Planning!!

So what can I tell you about my lovely bride Agnes? She sweet, smart, & undeniably funny!! I enjoyed planning her wedding and with her as there was NEVER a dull moment! From the invites to her glittery gold pumps, every minute with her was like planning a dear old friend’s wedding. Lam was as sweet as a button and one of nicest grooms you’ll ever meet.
So with that in mind Agnes had a vision of simplicity chic! Simple, elegant, clean lines, & very very feminine. She selected the gorgeous Hilton Hotel Post Oak. She was the type of bride that enjoyed the planning process. She tasted it…she touched it… she felt it and she changed it…dresses that is! She had 4 dress changes. 1. Traditional wedding dress 2. Vietnamese wedding dress 3. Korean wedding dress & 4. Fun party dress for dancing!
Oh, and I HAVE to talk about the cakes done by Cakes by Gina…OH MY!!! Her wedding cake design was a complete surprise! That’s right folks! Cakes by Gina created this based on her wedding dress & her personality. She wanted to give Agnes “bling bling” and made edible jewelry. OH, not the mention the groom’s cake!!!! Have you ever seen such a realistic bowl of Pho? From the chopsticks to the jalapeno peppers..everything was edible!
Here are a few images that were graciously provided by the Oh so wonderful! Steve Lee with Steve Lee Weddings. He and is staff captured the moment as always….beautifully! Click on the image for larger picture.
Enjoy!
Happy planning

So here’s the story on Glenda. I did a wedding last year in March at the Magnolia hotel in Downtown Houston. I parked my car on the outskirts of the hotel. Now, if anyone of you know me by now, you’ll know that I have my SUV with stickers on my car of my company name. It’s the Events by Audrey mobile! As I get out of my car, a young lady comes up to me as ask me about my services. She said that she thinks she might get engaged in a few months and may need a wedding planner. We chat for a bit, I give her my card and go off my merry way to my wedding.
A few months had passed when I get a call from Glenda. She reminded of how we met and informed me that she was getting married & that she never forgot me or lost my card. I was soooo happy and was unexpected!
To my luck Glenda became such a wonderful & easy going bride. I had such joy in planning this wedding. She knew what she liked & knew what she was looking for so planning this wedding was extremely enjoyable.
Her fiance, now husband, George was the sweetest and probably one of the funniest grooms. He always made us laugh. I KNEW when I met them that they were perfect for each other. Good times!
So, without further a do I give you the pictures of their wedding graciously provided by Dahlia Photo. Dahlia Photo did an absolutely amazing job! They are both worked as photojournalists for the Houston Chronicle so it’s only natural that their pictures showcase that talent. Thanks again to Dahlia Photo.
They wanted to incorprate the Latin side to their wedding as it seemed perfect for them since Glenda & George met in a Salsa class! Yes that’s right! They met in a salsa class!
Video to come shortly! So stay tuned! Thanks again Dahlia Photo!
