Hello readers!
I had the distinct pleasure of coordinating this lovely couple’s wedding. When Heather first met me, it was “Love at first sight”. We bonded, we laughed, we truly enjoyed each other’s company. She was sold!
She decided that she needed a planner for her wedding due to her busy schedule as a Doctor & the idea of planning a wedding in Galveston while living in Houston would pose a bit of a challenge for her. She wanted to find the best vendors to work with and new that she didn’t want the hassle of finding them.
Heather & Tray were such a cute couple! Constantly laughing and smiling from ear to ear! You SO see the love between these two love birds that I shed a tear at their ceremony.
They decided to have their wedding at the BEAUTIFUL Historic Hotel Galvez. The day was PERFECT! It was crystal clear skies & the perfect weather. God couldn’t have made it anymore beautiful!
They danced the night away with with fantastic music provided by Jason Garcia with Space City Entertainment.
So take a look at these “Crystal clear” images by the wonderful & amazing, Margaret Lee with Love Lee Photography. Thank you Magaret for doing such a beautiful JOB! Not to mention my amazing vendor team!

I’ve been waiting for awhile to blog about this one! This wedding was just beautiful!
Mandi was one of those brides that pick me right over the phone! I love those! 
At the time she was living in another city and wanted so much to do the wedding in Houston, but knew that planning it from another city would be challenging. So with a little help from me, I scoured the city to find the perfect place for her. I visited, took pictures, & reported back to her. And based on my pictures and packages that they offered, she selected the BEAUTIFUL Bell Tower! I had a blast searching for venues and I must say ALL OF THEM where so sweet & hospitable!
The vendors that she selected are among the best I recommend. I love it when brides use my vendors as I know the event will go Flawless!
Mandi & Andre were such a GORGEOUS couple! I don’t think she nor him could take a bad picture. Every picture of Mandi was breathtaking!
So as they danced the night away, Rueven, with Allure photography shot the day with absolute perfection! He always does a wonderful job at capturing the day. Thanks Rueven for these amazing pictures for the world to see! Enjoy!!

Well hello there! How have you been doing? Me, quite well thank you! Been busy with lost of wedding this month so I’ve been lacking in my bloggin’ duties. Perdon!
I had the pleasure of being a part of Dennis & Wendy’s most fun wedding! EVERYONE had a blast at this wedding! From the minister who is her Uncle from Tiawan to all the guests who flew is from almost every continent on this planet! They danced the night away with songs from the past & present! It truly was a wedding that I feel honored to have been a part of! Thanks Wendy!
So here’s a few details of the lovely bride & her wedding. They had contacted me approximately two years ago and where deciding between Boston & Houston. Boston is where the lovely couple met Houston was their home. So after much thought & meditation, they decided on Houston. Yay me! So began the process of this wonderful wedding.
They decided to follow some ideas of David Tutera for their wedding ceremony, by hanging red ribbon with a yellow carnation on a very beautiful tree. Red, yellow, or gold are very important colors in the Chinese culture. Representing good luck, health, & wealth. We could all use a little of that!
Instead of doing the traditional, Wendy decided to have a cocktail hour BEFORE the ceremony! So as the guests arrived on School buses (Wendy being a teacher) they enjoyed a cool beverage of either Mexican beer, Blue Moon beer, Mexican coke, & some other yummy delights! Her guests were her TOP priority!
After the ceremony had ended, the guests were transported to Fung’s Kitchen where several absolutely amazing dishes were served course after course! I love Chinese weddings! We love love to eat eat!!! 
A photobooth, uplighting and draping completed the decor. She transformed this into her personal space!
Instead of doing the traditional wedding cake, she wanted to incorporate his & her love for Super Mario Brothers. So with that in mind Cakes by Gina made this truly amazing cake that awed all the guests & staff alike. Since Dennis likes to grill alot, Wendy decided to also have a BBQ grill to represent his ability!

Hi Everyone!
Phew! I’ve had a busy month and lot’s to blog about! I’ve been waiting for an opportunity to blog about this wedding.
So a little background on Liz & Adam, they were referred to me by former clients, Julie & Chris, and when the mother of the bride & Liz met me they already heard wonderful things about me. So I must say that the biggest compliment is to receive referrals from past clients. : -)
Liz & Adam decided to get married at the very beautiful St. Vincent’s Catholic Church followed by a reception at the Magnolia Ballroom where beats of yesteryear & hits of today were played well by our wonderful DJ Fransisco Perez of Elegante Entertainment. Flowers by Lisa with Petals by Design.
There is one person I just NEED to mention. Her grandmother! She’s the one dancing in one of the pics. She was sooo sweet and funny! I just loved her! She comes up to me and asks me, “So how do I look for an 85 year old? Pretty good don’t ya think? I still got it goin’ on!” I can only hope that I would be that awesome at her age!
Here are some amazing photos taken by Niki with Photography by Niki. I must say she and her assistant where so much fun to work with! They were attentive and made my job fun! Thanks again Niki!

Hi Everyone!
I had the pleasure of coordinating a fun wedding in Highlands, TX. Candice & Kenneth wanted to have the ceremony & reception in the mother of bride’s home.
This was a fun wedding! They incorporated the color purple & the outdoor cowboy theme bringing in a little bit of Texas with a twist! In order to soften the area a bit they decided to drape certain areas for a softer look. Thanks to Angela with Techave Inc they did just that!
I enjoyed planning this fun & whimsical wedding. From the flowers to the cake everything tied in well. Enjoy a few of my personal pics!

Hi Everyone!
While I am waiting for the fabulous pics from the photographer I’ve decided to go ahead and blog about this wedding. Please be advise (time and time again..LOL) I am not a good photographer!
I recently did a beautiful wedding of Yanh & Travis. They are such a cute & bubbly couple. Yanh was so sweet & fun to be with and her fiance Travis was always by her side planning it along with her. I love it when fiances are involved.
This was a day of coordinating event so many of her vendors were already selected. All her vendors where wonderful to work with! Take a look at the cake! 9 layers!!
Reception was held at Ocean Palace Restaurant in Houston,TX…OK I have to send a shout out to them..IF YOU LOVE CHINESE/VIETNAMESE food…you LOVE LOVE THEM!! OH my the food was some of the best food at a wedding. It was delish!
Here are a few of pics I took of the wedding. Enjoy!
Happy Planning!

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!
Please click on the picture to see a better view. Thanks!

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!!
