EXCITING NEWS!

Recently the fabulous Alicia Vitarelli, morning Anchor for NEWS 12 NEW JERSEY, approached oh so fabulous to come on board for her fantastic BUCK WILD segment to help viewers understand how to spend their wedding budget wisely. We are SO excited to begin filming with Alicia because we are firm believers at oh so fab that no matter the budget, spend your money the RIGHT way always. And furthermore, never sacrifice quality, stay informed and always expect the best from vendors, no matter what the cost!


We are exctied to partner with Alicia and NEWS 12 in the next few months to produce these informative and helpful money saving segments! Stay tuned for more details!

Better Late Than Never....

So we finally got some pro pics from a wedding we did LAST summer! Laura and Julio were a colorful couple we had the pleasure of working with last year at The Madison Hotel in NJ. Laura recently sent us some pro images of her day and I thought I would share. We tried to infuse the couple's Hispanic roots into the day by combining antique black lace and deep red roses to create a dramatic look and feel! Thank you to Carolyn at Bella Dia for the beautiful invitations and day of suite.

HOT OFF THE PRESS!

We are very pleased to have been chosen by Molly Tully, Editor of the fabulous New Jersey Bride Magazine, as one of "New Jersey's Top Wedding Planners" in the newest Spring 2009 issue of our favorite local magazine. It was fun chatting with Molly about trends and some of the do's and don'ts of wedding planning for the story. It was also an honor to be among so many other talented ladies in the fabulous state of NJ! Go get your copy today!

Staff Meeting

Tonight we all got together for one of our fun meetings (yeah we really just read bridal mags and drink coffee, but don't tell anyone) and we discussed upcoming events, some new trends, and got into our 2009 goal which is a spot in Grace Ormonde Magazine. We have been invited several times to present a table top design to this amazing publication....we've never really gotten behind this and it's time to go for it...all or nothing! We're hoping to wow the editors and come up with something really fresh and fabulous for their next submission period!

PS: Allyson and Christy we missed you, but we didn't want anyone going into labor here tonight..good choice not to come!
Stay tuned!

Website Update

OK OK OK....I can't make any more excuses, it's time to update the website. We've been in 5 more publications, on two more TV shows and have produced so many beautiful events since our last update that it's time to get myself in gear! It's in the works and I promise that the website will be updated in the next month!
Stay tuned!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Well 2009 is finally here! What a year 2008 was for oh so fab. It was a year of special family milestones for two of our staff members (including myself!) and two more staff members are going to be blessed early this year with two new arrivals! We had some staff changes this year, we lost two of our most fabulous planners Melissa and Sarah who have moved on to new career paths, but we gained two AMAZING girls, Amy and Angela in late 2007.

We set two goals for ourselves this past year; To get the opportunity to be on Platinum Weddings after so many times of being JUST about there then something fell through one way or another. And our second goal we achieved was to get into the very coveted pages of Inside Weddings Magazine. I am SO proud of myself and my staff for reaching these very prestigious goals, and I am so honored to be able to put this on my resume!

This year we "took it easy" so to speak, with two of us down (well I wouldn't say having a baby is being down but you get it) I lightened up the work load, took on less full planned events and really wanted to focus on family. Well we are MORE than making up for that in 2009 and 2010 where we are completely booked solid for September and October which has become our busiest season thus far.

We are so excited to work on all the fabulous designs for our new batch of couples and we are looking forward to 5 magazine features ALREADY and it's only the 2nd day of the new year! (201 Bride, Inside Weddings, The Knot, NJ Bride, Contemporary Bride but who's counting?)

We wanted to thank all of our clients, past...present and future for your continued support and I would like to say thank you to my amazing staff for being the best and for always making me proud!

BRING IT 2009 we're ready for you!
