Samantha + Alex 11.13.10

Tuesday, January 4th, 2011

I am very excited to blog about this one! This was a beautiful wedding where love was flowing throughout the ENTIRE process and on their wedding day!! To see the love that Samantha & Alex had for each other was one of the most beautiful sites to see!

So a little history of this amazing off-beat couple. I had met Samantha at a wedding I had coordinated about a year ago. She was the crossbearer for Carolina & Steve’s wedding. We had met there and she told me that she would contact me she was going to plan her wedding. I love it when people tell me that! :-)

We hit it off the very first time her, Alex, & I met. We spent hours talking about her dream wedding. It was like talking to two very close friends! It was kismet! We discussed different ideas and a couple of ideas where thrown into the hat:
* Miami night club theme
* Renaissance theme
* Halloween theme
* Twilight Vampire theme
* Asian Gothic theme

As you can see they had ALOT of great and interesting ideas! They wanted their wedding to be THEIR wedding. They wanted it to reflect their personalities & styles and wanted the world to see and they contracted me to create their vision. 

After a hard and long process of figuring out what they wanted, they finally decided on the color scheme; red, black, & white.  So they took that color theme throughout the whole process, from the draping to the flowers, everything reflected that same color scheme.  As we still tried to figure out their theme…:-)  Final verdict?  Mr. Devil & Mrs. Angel getting married in Old Hollywood! :-)

Now, I must discuss the cakes:  WOW!! Their cakes definitely showed their personalties.  Samantha wanted BLING!!  Wanted the cake to shine & shimmer & Edible Designs by Jessie did NOT dissappoint!  Alex wanted something different, something BOLD, something that reflected his interests.  Now, mind you most brides would not be happy to ablige the groom’s idea of a groom’s cake.  But not Samantha, she wanted to make him happy.  She loved him eternally and unconditionally, so if he wanted a cake with dancers on it, well his wish was her command!   

As the evening wore on, the couple decided to incorporate their Mexican culture by have the “Vibora” song play.  This is where the bride & groom stand on a chair & the groom holds the bride’s veil while guests ran under it as fast as they could.  Let’s just say that it was definitely a site to see! Fransico Perez with Elegante Entertainment had the crowd on their feet the whole night!

Everything about this wedding was different and amazing.  I must say that the vendors TRULY outdid themselves at this wedding.  From the DJ, draping, cake, chocolate fountain, photographer, floral, & reception facility, no one ceased to amaze the couple!  I am happy to say the wedding went FABULOUSLY!

I want to thank the following for truly making this wedding the dream come true for the couple.  Without them it would have NOT happened.

Thank you to the following additional vendors:

Carmen Floral Designs

Techave

Houston Party Booths

Chocolate Fountain Express

Thank you all and I want to with Samantha & Alex a wonderfully happy life filled with love & lots of little ones! XOXO!!
