Etienne & James ~ Modern Love Affair!

It has been quite a few months since these love birds tied the knot but still think of them with such love and fondness! As planners, working with couples who trust you and know that in our hearts we want the best for them, makes what we do that much more rewarding and full filling. They contacted us back in January 2011 and got married Dec. 2012. Almost 2 years in the making and such a wonderful time working together and being part of their most special day.

Etienne is Gorgeous to say the least! James is smooth and cool and just adores his girl. (Quite handsome himself.) They make such a picture perfect couple.  Together they wanted a modern, classic, elegant but most importantly FUN FUN FUN wedding!  They love to party, as their friends and they sure did have a blast!  The decor was the always Modern and Youthful, Tiffany Blue with Pops of Magenta and Purple Hues with accents in Brown.  

Etienne & James: What can we say that we have not to each other! LOL  Love you guys and send you an abundance of blessings from the Lord above. May these hearts that are full of love continue on being a blessing for each other and those you come in contact with.  Thanks again for trusting us with your day and letting us be a part of something so beautiful! xoxoxo 

From the Bride Etienne: "Where do I start??? It can be from the slice of cake, our awesome planner saved us with 2 bottles of milk to take to our room the nigh of. Or it could be the little cute, pink tissues they had readily available for anyone ready to shed a tear. Words can't describe how grateful we are for all they did for us. They brought our visions to life and helped make our dreams come true. They are truly amazing, to say the least. I would have probably gone nuts if I had to orchestrate the day of my wedding. They managed to pull everything together and made it happen. I appreciate all that goes into putting a wedding together and what sets them apart from the rest is that they really care about their clients. They pay attention to detail and want you to have the best day of your life. They are genuine people for passion in what they do and all shows in their work. Every question or concern I had, they would reply within a few hours or less. They were always there for us. It's one thing to hire someone to plan your wedding but it's another to hire someone that cares about your wedding. This company are those people who care. We love them and will forever be their biggest fan!

Alyssa & Jose ~ Coral Gables Wedding!

How do I start and even express myself about this wedding, which I was not only honored to be part of but also enjoyed whole heartedly! A few years ago, I had the amazing pleasure of marrying Vanessa & Erick which just happen to be Alyssa’s sister and Jose’s best friend. Fast forward a few years, Jose popped the question and now Erick and Jose are not only best friends but also family. Maritere the brides’ mom, was a very intricate part of the planning for both her girls and boy did we always have a blast at all our meetings!

In designing Alyssa’s wedding, she was first very laid back, calm and collected but a few weeks before the wedding she really got involved and turned up the pace. She chose some beautiful plum and eggplant tones, with some slight touches of burgundy for an amazing contrast. The ceremony was held at the beautiful St. Hugh Catholic Church and reception at the historic Douglas Entrance in Coral Gables. The linens were custom made triple pintuck, which looked so modern and elegant! We used mahogany chivari chairs and gold cushions and of course purple up lighting to give it the final amazing touch!

My favorite part of the night had to be when the bride/groom and entire bridal party used masks and fun giveaways to start their hora loca. It was so much fun and the crowd really loved that is was them who started festivities!

Alyssa & Jose: Thank you so very much for allowing me to part of yet another amazing family moment! Both you and your families are awesome and feel so blessed to know you!! May God bless your marriage FOREVER and continue sending you an abundance of blessings. Love you both!! Xoxoxo
