Juicy Couture Theme Sweet Sixteen!

We planned an amazing Juicy Couture themed birthday party in just 3 months for our adorable client Alyssa. The venue that was selected was perfect to hold all of our more than 350 guests but as far as being an attractive location it was anything but!! Here are some BEFORE SHOTS of the space. We had to completely transform this dull and rather boring space to create the hip and stylish nightclub atmosphere our client wanted. We brought in drapery to completely cover all of the walls and ceiling and up lit the room with variations of pink to help create our theme. We had gobos spinning on the dance floor with Juicy Couture tag lines. The table centerpieces were of luscious pink roses in candy filled vases. The birthday cake was in the shape of a Juicy Couture tote bag! It was amazing! The guest of honor was escorted in to a choreographed dance routine by an amazing group of hip hop dancers that we brought in. The DJ did a great job of keeping everyone both young and old on the dance floor throughout the night. I loved the music videos that he projected on a big screen. I really felt like we were at a club! We created a private "VIP" area for Alyssa and only her select friends were granted entrance. These lucky friends were invited to the party with a custom designed boxed invitation which included a key that had to presented in order to gain access to the VIP area. It was an amazing party! Alyssa and her friends had a blast. She even received a wonderful gift from her parents in addition to the party. A new Infiniti! Wow!!! I think she will remember the party for a lifetime.

Nikki & Clay June 27th

Nikki and Clay were married on June 27, 2009 at Alamo Heights Presbyterian Church followed by a beautiful reception at The Bushnell. The penthouse was decorated with sage green linens and hydrangea centerpieces and the tables on the roof were decorated with cream linens and pictures of the bride and groom growing up. The evening started out extremely hot, so most of the party stayed in the penthouse up until dinner. By then it had cooled off enough that guests were taking their delicious food up to the roof to eat and enjoy the breeze. The food was absolutely delicious! Our staff agrees that their favorite parts were the salad and the great idea of a mashed potato bar. (Even the presentation for those was great! They were served in martini glasses!) After dinner, everyone moved up to the roof for toasts, cake, and dancing. The best man’s toast was one of the best we’ve ever heard! Once the music got going, everyone was dancing and having a great time. (It was really the grandparents who got the dancing started!) The guests sent the newlyweds off in style by waving sparklers to illuminate the path to their get away car.

Kathryn & Travis

We recently had a wedding with Kathryn and Travis who were married on June 13 at Christ Lutheran Church with a reception following at the Argyle.

The wedding programs were a perfect match to the invitations. The French Connection did all the printing for this event. I am very proud of how everything turned out!

The usher for this wedding were a blast to work with. These guys did not miss a beat. It was so nice to see them welcome guests and quickly get them seated and come back for the next set. They definitely could have a future with us :-) .

After the ceremony the guests headed to the Argyle. This historic mansion set in the middle of Alamo Heights is a gorgeous spot for a reception!! The guests arrived to passed champagne and a surprise of Bevo, the University of Texas mascot! Guests loved taking pictures with Bevo while enjoying cocktails on the front lawn.

With an outdoor reception in June it is an absolute must to provide guests something to help them cool off! So in addition to the cocktails, we passed out brown paper fans that matched our event.

The guest seating and band were set under a tent on the side lawn. We had special up lighting that created a warm glow and the candle centerpieces were a unique addition to the setting.

Midway through the reception the bride changed into something more comfortable. This was a great idea especially since the event was outside. She was able to get into something cooler and still look like a beauitful bride.

This formal wedding was a huge hit to all that attended.

Melissa & Jose May 30, 2009

Melissa and Jose were married at the Chapel of the Incarnate Word and had an evening reception at the AT&T Community Center. The reception venue was beautiful. The flowers for this event, tall branch arrangements with Gerber daisy balls hanging, were unique and really made the room pop. Turquoise, fuchsia, and green linens made for a bold and bright event. One theme throughout this special day was polka dots. They were on favors, cupcakes, programs, and menu signs. They also even appeared in the DJ’s lights that were used! The bride made a stunning (and more comfortable) wardrobe change and looked beautiful for her special day! One nice touch for the end of the reception was a late night pizza snack. Oh my gosh! Guests loved that. The servers couldn't make it all the way from the kitchen to the pizza table because guests stopped them along the way to grab a slice and then get back to dancing! When the night was over, all we could hear were complements about how perfect everything was. We love hearing that from brides.

Great New Restaurant - Ciel/Ciao 2

We had a great site visit and lunch today at Ciel/Ciao 2. Ciel offers classic French dining and Ciao 2 offers contemporary Italian cuisine. They have a banquet room well as a beautiful patio that would be great for a rehearsal dinner or an initiate wedding reception. Both restaurants are right next to each other and you can order from either menu at both locations. They are located at 20626 Stone Oak Parkway, San Antonio TX. 78258. http://www.plazaciel.com/

Paula and John May 24, 2009

Paula and John are from Houston and recently got married here at St. Sophia Greek Orthodox Church. The reception followed at the beautiful Witte Museum. Paula wanted to incorporate her love of the gorgeous Oak trees at the museum throughout her event. We added a tree design to her wedding invitations, menus and wedding favors. We had planned on an outdoor reception, but Mother Nature had different plans. Because of the rain we had to move inside, but still had a lovely cocktail hour outside. The bride and groom love Mojitos so of course we had them as their specialty drink perfectly named a "Marry Me Mojito" This was my first Greek wedding and I just loved watching all the dancing!! It was so much fun to watch. I do not know where my bride got all her energy! The guest favors were adorable. The bride and groom used their initials, PB&J to inspire the creative idea of giving the guests small jars of peanut butter and jelly. It was a wonderful day! I hope to post pictures soon!

Leslie and Matthew April 11, 2009

Will this rain ever stop?! Ok I am beginning to worry about these outdoor events I am planning!! I planned Leslie and Matt's wedding in 2 months. I love when a bride truly utilizes my services to the fullest. They completely trusted me and took my advice and made the planning process go so smoothly. Planning a wedding in 2 months requires a very decisive couple. They let me offer suggestions and they would provide their input and if they wanted to make modifications I was able to offer alternate suggestions but then they would make a decision. It was refreshing!!!!! On the wedding day....yep! we had rain but all turned out very nicely. We had the wedding and reception at the gorgeous Marquardt Ranch in Boerne, Texas.
