Amazing way to spend a Sunday



Happy New Year! Today was great and reminds me why I wanted to become a Wedding Planner in the first place. The Perfect Wedding Guide hosted today's Bridal Event at Orlando Gardens. I cannot tell you how many elated newly engaged women I met today. That happiness and the excitement they feel about planning their day never seems to get old to me.

When I was thinking about creating the decor for my booth I wanted it to really reflect my personality. Heck, I had to take my own advice right? I mean almost daily I am telling Brides To Be that they absolutely must make their Wedding reflect their own style!! So I wanted my booth to be over the top fabulous!


So my first stop was to meet with Emily and Shelly at Sister Flowers. When I met with them I told them of my idea for creating an over the top huge centerpiece. This centerpiece had to have it all. It had to be shiny, with crystals, and feathers, etc etc. Although Shelly was skeptical at first of the stability of the block vases, they agreed to help me. I could not have been more PLEASED!!! On Saturday when I went to pick up the floral, Shelly told me the vases were surprisingly stable. What true artists they are. Even though I wanted something so over the top, they were able to create it and then some.





I then thought well now we have the flowers, I have to create the elegance with some glam. So I used a ton of crystals, a lot of elbow grease, and vision. I can honestly say I was so happy with the results.



Of course no room (or booth for this purpose) is complete without lighting. Erin Schulte from Exclusive Events, Inc never ceases to amaze me. She used this crystal type backdrop and used pink lights to emphasis. It was stunning, and really helped tie my entire design together!




I hope that all of the Brides to Be I met today enjoyed the show as much as I did.
