Crystal & Matthew March 20, 2009

Crystal and Matthew had a very nice ceremony in LaCoste, Texas and their wedding reception at the historical St. Anthony Hotel.

At first we had a hard time find just the right location for Crystal's special day. She really wanted a romantic setting. Finally we sent her to the St. Anthony and she fell in love with it.


It was the perfect backdrop for her special day.


The wedding was done in shades of pale pink with touches of black. It was a very elegant day.

Kristin & Clay March 14, 2009





Oh my gosh! I never thought this wedding would come together!!!
I worked with Kristin for months planning a gorgeous outdoor wedding and reception. We planned the entire event to take place at the Witte Museum. Kristin wanted her event to be entirely outside. We planned on creating different spaces throughout the Witte property.

The week of the wedding a terrible cold front and rain was predicted to ruin the event we had worked so hard to plan.

On Wednesday before the wedding it was decided that we were going to be forced to move the entire event inside. This meant accommodating 320 guests inside. It was a very tight squeeze and a VERY limited set up time but with all of my lists and planning it came together without a hitch!

I transformed the Witte's main ballroom and hung paper lanterns from the ceiling for a dramatic affect.

The band we hired was AMAZING! We had a photo booth for guests to take snapshots in. This acted as on of the favors. For the kiddos I had a balloon artist come in.

We had Izze cocktails for the specialty drink. Yum!!! I am craving one right now! Look for this wedding to be featured in the next issue of San Antonio Weddings Magazine!
Philip Thomas took these gorgeous pictures of the day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jennifer & Matthew February 28, 2009

Jennifer and Matthew were married recently at the gorgeous Westin Riverwalk Hotel.

I had a great time working with Jennifer and her mom to plan this wedding. We planned things rather quickly as Jennifer wanted to be able to enjoy her honeymoon over her Spring Break from school.


The best part of my day was when I took Jennifer in the ballroom to have a sneak peek of the finished room and she was speechless. I have never had a bride moved to tears before but Jennifer was so moved by the way the room came together she had to hold back the tears.


This is why I work so hard to make my bride's day perfect! To see a HAPPY BRIDE on her wedding day makes all the hard work worth it!


I hope to be able to post pictures soon.
