The beautiful sunset ceremony, which took place in the ampitheatre was simply beautiful as the wedding party processed in to an acoustic guitar version of “Pride” by U2 and the bride processed in to “Here Comes the Sun” by the Beatles. The custom made bamboo chuppah was beautifully adorned with flowers and a family prayer shawl made in Israel. </span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"> </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Can we talk about their love of music, cultures and family? Katya and Eric had mariachis playing during their pre-ceremony cocktail hour to set the tone for the rest of the event. The tables were dressed with beautiful ikebana inspired floral décor – which included unique shapes, dimension and colors completely reflective of the couples love for the asian floral design technique. Guests were welcomed with an individual flower at each place setting. The couple had a tremendous live band entertaining their guests throughout the night –the HORAH was over the top and AWESOME but get this – they also had a second latin music band to play an authentic salsa and meringue set. The dance floor was packed all night long. </span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"> </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">To top off the evening – Katya and Eric exited out of the beautiful villa led by a the horn section of the band – playing a jazzy, new Orleans style march to an antique “latte” colored convertible 69’ Camaro….which jammed on the way out to their favorite tune – WOW, what a night!</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial, serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><i>Photography courtesy of David Sixt </i></span></span></p> <!--EndFragment--> <img style="display:block;

Shop787 is another original idea brought to us by the creative team over at Launch787. More than 50 local boutiques, designers, and local artists were present to help start the holiday shopping experience off right! As is the case with most Launch787 gigs, this event was not held at a “standard” venue. Launch787 always like to “keep it weird” a</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; "><span style="font-family:ArialNarrow;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">nd mix it up!

But this was no ordinary Frisbee! This Frisbee was customized with those magic words: Will you marry me? (Is this guy a keeper or what?!) It took Amber about 20 minutes of tossing that special Frisbee to notice the message that changed her life. The guests absolutely loved their sneak peak into Justin’s unique marriage proposal. This was just one example of how truly unique and personal this wedding was.</span></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;">Amber’s vintage dress set the tone for a modern Great Gatsby inspired fête. Bridesmaids and groomsmen had alternating monochromatic boutonnières and bouquets comprised of green spider mums, fuchsia mokara orchids, and eggplant carnations. The groom’s boutonnière was wrapped with the friendship bracelet Amber made for him years ago when they first started dating – adorable!</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;">The oversized program was matted and set in a gorgeous antique frame . . . not only an eco-friendly solution, but a gorgeous and unique focal point leading into the ceremony The teal and citron color scheme transformed Laguna Gloria into a modern dream. The teal satin linens on the cocktail tables were "banded" with citron satin sashes to enhance the look. The mix of centerpieces included candlescapes that were anchored with teal sea glass and illuminated the night as well as unique and textural floral arrangements.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;">Guests dined on great Austin comfort foods including mini corn dogs, pulled pork tacos, fried pickles and gourmet mac and cheese. The dessert and cigar bar was a work of art! On the dessert bar were bite-sized mini cupcakes in three flavors and fruit tarts displayed on varying tiers of cake stands. In the middle on an antique glass stand was the mini wedding cake decorated with sugar daisies (the groom’s favorite flower) and topped with a mini air stream trailer! Guests danced the night away off to the fabulous live band and the photo booth with unqiue props was the talk of the night!</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;">Thank you – Amber and Justin – for letting us be a part of this unique and unforgettable evening!</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;">Photos courtesy of Eclectic Images</span></span></i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"> </span></i></span></p> <!--EndFragment--> </span><br /><img style="display:block;

Pastor Jack Haberer, who has known Angela since she was 14 years old, flew in to co-officiate. He personalized the Westlake Hills Presbyterian Church ceremony so much that there wasn’t a dry eye in the house. He is what I call . . . good peeps!</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Guests then headed to the Four Seasons Hotel for cocktail hour where mariachis and margaritas had everyone in festive spirits. Angela and Jeff got to spend about 15 minutes alone watching the sunset and the bats fly out- which they had never seen - and then were serenaded by the mariachis whilst sipping champagne . . . unbelievably romantic, right ?!</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">The dance floor was PACKED the entire night due to the amazingly talented DJ we selected. The first dance by Nick Drake set the tone, but the dancing highlight came when my groom Jeff took the dance floor with his ushers to dance to “their song” Coconut (as in “you put the lime in the coconut and drink it all up”) which is hard to explain, but I will try. All the guys stomped, ran laps around each other, did high knees and performed some moves that I can only describe as monkey-ish ;) I WISH I HAD VIDEO!!!! And then add in Jeff’s brothers and Dad who have some outstanding moves . . . needless to say, we were all thoroughly entertained!</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">And the décor, oh the décor!!! You will often hear my motto: linens and lighting make the event. This event was no exception! We worked with the venue and chose a color palette of spearmint/teal, champagne and gold that made the Halloween wedding timelessly elegant. Our escort card display was a show stopper! Suspended gold manzanita branches hung in front of a huge window overlooking the beautiful view from the Four Seasons. Peacock-colored silk dupioni ribbon hung from the branches and with the color coordinated escort cards hanging from the ribbon. BEAUTIFUL!</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Inside the ballroom, the spearmint and teal linens had a to-die-for dahlia pattern in corals and yellows which was fabulously complemented by mercury glass containers full of a LUSH creamy ivory mix of tons of garden roses accented with hydrangea, sweet peas, velvet leaves and stock. I love mercury glass because it is truly timeless and instantly adds an elegant vintage look.</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Another WOW piece - the groom’s cake. It was a stacked chocolate cake with a 180-degree New York City skyline surrounding each layer. Very cool!!!</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">HUGE PROPS to Megan, Angela’s bridesmaid, who designed and printed all of her printed collateral. It not only fit the theme perfectly it was GORGEOUS!</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Thanks guys, for allowing CLINK to be there with you every step of the way, and for letting me run with the design that was based off that perfect inspiration page we found so long ago. And Austin wants you when you are done with NYC!!!! </span></span></p> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Photography courtesy of </span></i></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Photography by Blanca</span></i></span></div></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-zT57KUe9gqYj9OJ-3__LeZ0ZYYx9HHWkMMZX5lFe2jcV1n0rjcGpnGrHS38ZKX_vRMOJzr64lWu4tRQtOsg7OmXNml3sa9AmFMi38vIvZrIdyccM3pgVjiaeuvMH1ddgqwliKfMbq3Q/s1600-h/041__aj.jpg" style="text-decoration: none;"><img style="display:block;

Cara and Travis had jet streams, noreasters and hurricanes all in their wedding day forecast. The downpours didn’t spoil a thing. The raindrops provided a romantic, rhythmic background for this candlelit ceremony. The floral décor included unique and delightful textures and colors with hues of chocolate, deep reds, and rich sunset oranges. Cara’s vintage inspired beaded gown was stunning – she had a matching vintage inspired bouquet with ivory, camel, and taupe colored flowers sealed with her grandmother’s broach. The bride gave each of her bridesmaids the same Kendra Scott earrings – (all a different color – red, orange, yellow, bronze, etc) that the girls wore on the wedding day. What a nice touch!</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">When the bride and groom arrived, the rain stopped – and there was a beautiful mist hovering over Lake Austin – it looked like something out of a movie! The party continued with a live band to celebrate the couple’s love of music and tapping into the groom’s past band life. The father of the bride had a blast as he celebrated in our fabulous “Cordials Lounge” where we had a full cordials bar and a cigar roller on site. The cigars were sealed with a custom designed label with the bride and groom’s logo affixed. </span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">What would a party be without ice cream? Amy’s ice cream was served to the guests throughout the night to satisfy the sweet tooth…And finally, after a full night of dancing and drinking – the guests take off with a “doggy bag” with a little slider burger for the road. What a night and what an unforgettable experience!</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Photos courtesy of Red Fly Photography</span></i></span></p> <!--EndFragment--> <img style="display:block;

Even though they live in Chicago, they chose Austin for the relaxed and eclectic vibe and knew all of their out of town guests would LOVE it! Austin did not disappoint, the weather could not have been more ideal and is why October is one of the most popular months for couples to wed!</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial, serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Marla and Mark wanted a fall look that was “upscale Austin picnic.” The food could not have fit the bill more perfectly! The guests were greeted with a sweet tea and lemonade bar before the ceremony. Southern hors d’oeuvres like Chicken Fried Steak Sliders, Deviled Eggs topped with Praline Bacon and Fried Green Tomatoes were passed for cocktail hour. Guests were seated at two long tables for family style dining and instead of a traditional wedding cake they served homemade blackberry and apple cobblers topped with homemade vanilla bean and caramel rum ice creams!</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">The décor added to the perfect fall ambiance with amber uplighting of the tree canopies and the beautiful Charles Umlauf sculptures. Tree bases under the candlescapes and rich fall floral that was so unique in its texture and depth. And the band, WOW! Grammy award winning Brave Combo is not your typical wedding band.

The party was truly a “grand opening with altitude” located at the beautiful Alexan Vistas property. The evening of vintage Hollywood glamour began with guests making their entrance on the purple carpet and getting their picture snapped by the talented David Miguez. Our VIP hour was complete with a ribbon cutting, a champagne toast, and even a performance by local favorite Suzanna Choffel. </span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">The night got creative with art galleries featuring Alicia Jameson and Austin Art Space and a fabulous raffle to benefit the Austin Museum of Art. Partygoers also got the chance to have their very own “Hollywood Makeover” at the hands of the talented stylists of Corey Micheal Salon. Food was generously provided by J Blacks, Roaring Fork, Maria Maria, Peche, Greenling, and Delish. After filling up on local food, guests went poolside to listen and dance to DJ Ariel, sip drinks provided by Tito’s Vodka, Bacardi, Trinity Oaks, Rev 3, and Sweet Leaf Tea, and take in the gorgeous view of the Texas hill country. Surprise guest Marilyn Monroe made a special appearance, making this grand opening a truly memorable experience.</span></span></p> <!--EndFragment--> <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYwvofL8ozdRokGi-JxAxOCXPFFvCTKOZGrKomVEGI2-AYEGwQHud_GtBW3Ha2liQNXuJUXCB1_H9YYGMhpIC_d1_O-xI6mOQ-yBWXRYRGtffMagEFteHQxFCLI0igYKqLUR5VJnwjJC0/s1600-h/4832_106394342018_86838737018_2621252_3432924_n.jpg"></a><div><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxNuqpdP6-yWEHrvynba90nIgNSVE3mFI54C90SSU6l6IsMGCN9yBid-dlM7N4vfxhTvpUrOMwq2r_4Svzk1N0gxY4psRur3Yy8rHOaSmoSaEkmilk7TRjwOm9BB870IiZg40Ewi5ywaM/s400/4832_106394212018_86838737018_2621229_2126571_n.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373622176736678242" /><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgifQBlYhUkOySw4HcULEKqSaKRyhkChLZGZPSMUf9n7ySVx7G_2nek9oHqYejTBqmNH0JyjfhIcaAofsYkCj6hVFaOiM3EJEOtiwJnpToIugbLR-qucsURHAlET_bPtkK50XN3iqNBKO8/s400/4832_106394222018_86838737018_2621231_7557378_n.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373663890773783538" /><div style="text-align: center;"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 266px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhG2lUYiokZCYBNpRaKrFNW1l3aQM4Sj18u9zDt-6mRLsUBDAMGtUBKfq-uNUkt_Iyd-8Xh14fMRwp5wOE5OmK1GyrWdP7UQ4QtsavBDfXDbZT1OZkT55k9KTaaHG639FnxBaExyq2Y8I/s400/4832_106394292018_86838737018_2621243_3772933_n.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373663896190391906" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img style="text-align: left;display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 266px; " src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYwvofL8ozdRokGi-JxAxOCXPFFvCTKOZGrKomVEGI2-AYEGwQHud_GtBW3Ha2liQNXuJUXCB1_H9YYGMhpIC_d1_O-xI6mOQ-yBWXRYRGtffMagEFteHQxFCLI0igYKqLUR5VJnwjJC0/s400/4832_106394342018_86838737018_2621252_3432924_n.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373663988782584354" /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-3j4Mqsvlnuq4saop4n_HXFG76NBjjcM0CaeDG5VzgxdRHfFftgFKvMQ8rCS5OFn2H9RwqT8Ime5LGHrXh3Va8KX6yvSpX8U843figCQjWvPHWgA4bHWL91T-CIQ8P1gzl0YTGGQS1NE/s400/4832_106397767018_86838737018_2621310_2995365_n.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373622192364835554" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpVEdcn_3fKboJL80GjYH6LOvXcvs3mSvt5bChSp9PKbmwZCM1cuzW-DvhGiJbYvgtYffua6dAEOSU8kI8eyDv7qtWZEuvv_myQopk-WNFOsO4O0GMPoeSq_KqE5jnePdCl_h43UoKmpY/s400/4832_106394217018_86838737018_2621230_7609860_n.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373622193433894994" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:Georgia, -webkit-fantasy;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:Georgia, fantasy;"><br /></span></span></div> <!--EndFragment--> </div>Marthahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07101103306371735800noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8188614646433247889.post-89632876299498868942009-08-19T14:00:00.018-05:002009-11-30T11:54:00.711-06:00The Wedding of Amy and Keith<div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 268px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwcybbL-0W1liHRM6ZllK0qIvnyw2uJGJSBF34BmgC2KiJHYQvE4PnvBTRvvenmHaW9-3Spi0Ua0SE7GzHkOMsqUtNUr6ymeiYdtmuDEhXceGMTf0o6oKsJK3e19OCvCAicpbko3cqUKs/s400/A&K_0561.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5371751986528766738" /><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><i>Laguna Gloria</i></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><i>Saturday May 2, 2009</i></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial, serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><i><br /></i></span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, fantasy; font-size: medium; font-style: normal; ">What a fine pair these two!

Weddings like Anna & Steven’s remind me again why I love my job so much.

Everything about it - from the menu to the band to the HOT orange Gucci shoes Elaine wore - it was all about FUN! Speaking of the menu - if you've never had the great pleasure of sampling the lobster macaroni and cheese at the Four Seasons, go do it . . . now! To die for! And it didn't end there. This was a feast! The unique and overflowing food stations were just the beginning. Later in the evening, the guests were treated to Amy's Ice Cream, s'mores out by the fire, and late night snacks like sliders and mini pizzas. No one went hungry at this wedding!</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; "><o:p><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"> </span></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">The best part (even better than those fabulous shoes!) was the surprise fireworks show that Elaine's parents, Peggy and Joe, did for Elaine and Kacy. I get chills just thinking about it. And the plan worked perfectly! We had the cake out on the patio - overlooking the lake. And just when Elaine and Kacy made the first cut of the cake, the sky lit up. The look on Elaine's face was priceless. And Pam Hults from a la Vie Photography captured it brilliantly as you can see! Elaine and Kacy were blown away by their surprise. Well done, Peggy and Joe!</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; "><o:p><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"> </span></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">Finally, a little personal note to Elaine and Peggy. I cannot tell you how much I enjoyed working with you both. You made my job even more fun than it usually is. I loved every minute of planning this event with you. Thank you for giving me the opportunity and pleasure of working with you on this very special occasion. I will miss you guys so much!</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></p></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#0000EE;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238);

From day one Lara and Nils had a vision of their day…spring wedding incorporating Austin elements (local food, local flowers and the dillo trolley of course!). The threat of rain didn’t damper their outdoor ceremony and reception, it was full speed ahead. Thankfully the rain stopped the second we were ready to start the ceremony – how’s that for being on mother nature’s good list!?<br /><br />The day was perfect and all of their guests that flew in all over the world for this event were definitely entertained. To top things off Nils brought in beat boys to shake the dance floor up a bit. It was so much fun to watch everyone participate – yes, even Lara, Nils and Lara’s father strutted their stuff. What a great night! Thanks guys, the pleasure was all mine.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK61RZ4qgyPgEsRMeHnXu03qwiOveVj1kJZrq0aJ_4WIDFSAa11eLNHDf89CAu7RrN2k0jBtXiLR4_tcRi7xIVk6-ec56kABYEbj3klTQ7O4HHywvaTG_4b9xLs02tZq_4-Ghf3yCVD9I/s1600-h/0235_ellis_wedding.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

It’s hard to know where to start because this was a very special event for so many reasons. First, Soirée was incredibly fortunate to be a part of such a special event. Rachel is our rental/tent rep at Marquee and we were honored when she asked us to help her coordinate and design her wedding. Not only that, but Rachel and Greg are two great people, and I’m honored to call them friends.<br /><br />We had some weather challenges – after a week of beautiful early Spring temps during the first week of March, we had a sudden wet and winter-y cold front come in out of nowhere. We lucked out and the wet weather dried up before Saturday, but it was still very chilly for this outdoor vintage vineyard wedding.<br /><br />But – did I mention my bride is the Marquee sales rep? All I had to do was snap my fingers and Marquee came to the rescue! Heaters, tent walls . . . you name it, they had it. We also had a roaring fire in the pavilion, which not only gave us some warmth, but added a beautiful romantic glow to the ceremony.<br /><br />Rachel’s “vintage vineyard” vision became a stunning reality with incredibly colorful and lush florals and a tent that was to die for. I remember – during set-up – I couldn’t stop crying because there was just so much love in the room for Rachel. Everyone wanted it to be just perfect for our Rachel. “Above and beyond” was not a task, but rather a genuine desire from everyone involved. It was truly amazing to be a part of such a special day.<br /><br />Rachel and Greg had a huge focus on food and wine, and as you’ll see from some of the beautiful food shots below – it was an unending feast – from the cocktail hour grill station – featuring grilled pizzas, to the unbelievable plated duet entrée of Butter Fish and Steak, to the knockout butter yellow cake.<br /><br />Finally, may I just mention how absolutely stunning and perfect Rachel was?

Their “wedding weekend in the Hamptons meets an English tea garden” certainly came to fruition. This includes the weather. The Texas weather was again unpredictable and what was a gorgeous spring week turned into a chilly London weekend. But that didn’t defer the celebration. Courtney and Adam had a tear jerking ceremony at Holy Word Lutheran Church and celebrated their nuptials at the AMOA – Laguna Gloria.<br /><br /></span></span><span style="font-size:85%;"><span class="Apple-style-span">The tent was decorated with varying shades of ivory and pale green flowers, crisp ivory satin linens and beautiful accent chairs. The cake was gorgeous and accented with lush hydrangeas between each layer. The Motown inspired band rocked the entire night as they kept the dance floor packed with people. The bride and groom also had a tremendous surprise when the bride’s father joined the band in the percussion section. Wow, he was awesome – “Ride Sally Ride” – Thank you Courtney and Adam for sharing a night that will never be forgotten.<br /><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:85%;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:85%;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238);"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7DY6kd7T72RRrbLSddhmM4n9jcypnTDoqLkIW39M69ZzCqf8-XuR6pW4D6WlSpZN-jabPNd2g6l_iC_tNVxrBjd4ssGhIi-Mx7kvUx7mICd_loclFovRVmlLNQrNUcCQmw0ftFEMp1Do/s400/ca40.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331985484833815410" style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 271px;" border="0" /></span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:7;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:48;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238);font-size:16;"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigwa78LFnJje98AapkBIPEAEJyzaWmPZCNyWkQ9HY2UoiYafQleJD_zVovxQb5LzTBktD2-UprhK_EIP0UcVjSGOKrBXYX_SCPGzte8FM2XjyvgrZ8KIs_qP2pg_V9sFLGuRORiALmzAo/s400/ca31.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331985480947244466" style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 271px; height: 400px;" border="0" /></span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:7;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:48;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238);font-size:16;"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyY2AGlLChwY6rW6UPMd2WoxYK4Nohxeqsj7cZQNae_tHQPh0gyQElyAXpkwMI-1WH3V3M0F4oAIhF_RUxqweSWZUuziaKrg3OVim1tn7CVk3O4hqmVvjDrNhQ97ejVRxbuMuQ2As6yvA/s400/ca13.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331985475684628002" style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 271px;" border="0" /></span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:7;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:48;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238);font-size:16;"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcdJdH6fzSoCfEjHvofVkhsvfabowD9VYL8RAIcrWYJiI6c8RuIjEaq8SqAX2ZsEzMeXamOeLrFKQmQdrbNIy4onsgdSbonBVZZOhrahvZu-ZV3BpvoG5ZrkOMfKFVyB6MOsKbDMRx-aE/s400/ca32.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331986150457349570" style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 271px;" border="0" /></span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:7;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:48;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238);font-size:16;"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRv-QSK4nybzQ5dyskGrF25x4rS17_Dt3WXtUt6AQRzvIbplGZiJkn9FZGQhY_t0niq_9qqVKDe2GeQfqutQoSPotz0UDgFkIcoUokuhZT9O6dO6OB_JuKH2aY7UluQG5SB799kWTXyUE/s400/ca43.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331985484677048754" style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 271px;" border="0" /></span></span></span></div>britthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17603617614247888287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8188614646433247889.post-37574625411551791442009-03-07T21:08:00.002-06:002009-10-26T16:38:13.735-05:00The Wedding of Kelly and Seth<div style="text-align: justify;font-family:georgia;"><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGNhoeV414HLd6OkLsTHYwxTOFdPm9uJfUbKougTxIkTK9bWwM9NjD2JsGocgupjBeNWwdaLbcmJXVNzkUPQNL1SZONdlCDOP9Wvpf3tyvnX_0McyqlaWY51Gij3zryq5Z2MAYgPuctdY/s1600-h/ks26.jpg.jpeg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGNhoeV414HLd6OkLsTHYwxTOFdPm9uJfUbKougTxIkTK9bWwM9NjD2JsGocgupjBeNWwdaLbcmJXVNzkUPQNL1SZONdlCDOP9Wvpf3tyvnX_0McyqlaWY51Gij3zryq5Z2MAYgPuctdY/s400/ks26.jpg.jpeg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331785252152251346" border="0" /></a></span><span style="font-size:85%;"><br />Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center<br />March 7, 2009<br /></span></div><span style="font-size:85%;"><br />With champagne in hand, guests took their place at the standing ceremony in the Butterfly Gardens awaiting their first glimpse of the bride. As Kelly made her way down the aisle to “Claire de Lune” by Claude Debussy, the last rays of sun highlighted the layers of her creme dress and as the two exchanged vows, the sun dipped past the horizon as candles illuminated the ceremony.<br /><br />Wineberry Bengaline and Navy Kensington linens adorned the tables at the reception in the Courtyard. Pops of dark and light purple and green flowers and succulents in dark wood platters and wooden boxes made up the centerpieces. Guests dined on upscale, southern comfort foods, including sweet marinated ribs, macaroni and cheese with a bread crumb crust, sauteed asparagus, and sweet potato fries.<br /><br />The party was just beginning as the crowd made their way into the dimly lit, lounge-style Gallery for some cake and dancing. And, we all got a surprise when Kelly mushed cake all over Seth’s face!<br /><br />The evening was full of excitement and love from friends and family who had been anticipating this day.

Mike Sutter from the Austin American Statesman had the chance to visit a few of our favorite spots and wrote an amazing article about the success of our fantastic event.</span><br /></div><span style=";font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;"><br />Check it out: http://tinyurl.com/ARWarticle<br /><br />Photos coming soon....</span>britthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17603617614247888287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8188614646433247889.post-60910575664570461932009-01-24T21:14:00.002-06:002009-10-26T16:38:38.556-05:00The Wedding of Lauren and Jordan<div style="text-align: center;font-family:georgia;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyEAL9HxNAoaK5lscNd9ie0-ZhH3hLqa38-swAU6CXXwq_THhIhILUuWM-VU0uVUz0z54gXjIWvkVOmnmsaDQIcQmY3WydDItsrIwyhF5HRrFawGkAYEycYigNSgD3KmEtX2-rtssagNE/s1600-h/090124apw+0676.jpg.jpeg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 268px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyEAL9HxNAoaK5lscNd9ie0-ZhH3hLqa38-swAU6CXXwq_THhIhILUuWM-VU0uVUz0z54gXjIWvkVOmnmsaDQIcQmY3WydDItsrIwyhF5HRrFawGkAYEycYigNSgD3KmEtX2-rtssagNE/s400/090124apw+0676.jpg.jpeg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331786646404823538" border="0" /></a></span><span style="font-size:85%;">Laguna Gloria<br />January 24th, 2009<br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;font-family:georgia;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><br />GRAND SLAM!!!!<br /><br />Lauren and Jordan’s wedding was a Home Run. The bases were loaded and an arctic blast stormed in during our Indian summer. On Friday, it was 75 degrees and on Saturday it barely made it to 40. But there was no stopping this party. Lauren and Jordan (who – in case you haven’t figured it out – is a professional baseball player!) enjoyed all of their guilty pleasures including: sushi, true 80’s rock music, s’mores, baseball and Superman…uh yeah…Superman. Look at him – he’s Clark Kent in the flesh (without the glasses).<br /><br />Lauren and Jordan selected an amazing color palette of rich fall tones, olive/fern greens, deep reds and subtle hues of amber. Lauren and Jordan shared their vows right at sunset – the timing couldn’t have been any more perfect for them. The dance floor under the tent was packed – everyone was singing along and the hands were raised in the air. They partied into the night to the sounds of The Police, Aerosmith, Tears for Fears, Journey and many, many more.<br /><br />Thanks to this very special (and gorgeous!) couple for inviting me to be a part of this very special day. I’ll never forget it.<br /><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:85%;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjH3zbRhMedlpS-qqVj08LCLoGHtzxsXXApO6XjBfDLjk2AketoPualLgu_M3nA-1lEVJRf53eCwPdEgQ5KAY6GuUe7dXnOl_ms3cuxS5fOG6ngWDkrJ7m1eiGq-nqJUJSiFJFE22GE0TU/s1600-h/090124apw+1006.jpg.jpeg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 268px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjH3zbRhMedlpS-qqVj08LCLoGHtzxsXXApO6XjBfDLjk2AketoPualLgu_M3nA-1lEVJRf53eCwPdEgQ5KAY6GuUe7dXnOl_ms3cuxS5fOG6ngWDkrJ7m1eiGq-nqJUJSiFJFE22GE0TU/s400/090124apw+1006.jpg.jpeg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331786647728040226" border="0" /></a></span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_mF7pDQDapb-D0ArZ2pQGRHgL5PtYd26d_RaRCNZTASwyTyy9GAf74fmZ7MAA7gMyqo4WVTdzSnyzP9hQPTVzgd5tijE8m0NU5jiRfwIv2RJR4bYJgfTAbhafLo0MWWtv_Rr3UMBg1uI/s1600-h/Picture+1.png"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_mF7pDQDapb-D0ArZ2pQGRHgL5PtYd26d_RaRCNZTASwyTyy9GAf74fmZ7MAA7gMyqo4WVTdzSnyzP9hQPTVzgd5tijE8m0NU5jiRfwIv2RJR4bYJgfTAbhafLo0MWWtv_Rr3UMBg1uI/s400/Picture+1.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331786655040353810" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioUmuKDpT8BlXme5eGhp1dqgpQEwk1jsW6rftozx-WhlleHGhIHDkdbWHSfPggLghKbMsMXIJK-Mq9Rvep3TcH_1exBRZBq12psx10fNFZFs09Fr9Avgiedqozu5gLcZ3E0MjNhVbdd88/s1600-h/090124apw+0971.jpg.jpeg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 268px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioUmuKDpT8BlXme5eGhp1dqgpQEwk1jsW6rftozx-WhlleHGhIHDkdbWHSfPggLghKbMsMXIJK-Mq9Rvep3TcH_1exBRZBq12psx10fNFZFs09Fr9Avgiedqozu5gLcZ3E0MjNhVbdd88/s400/090124apw+0971.jpg.jpeg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331786651422670162" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiL-MIgzlTwkbD58fqPA_G3gSI2MF-M3jSThFX9WJScnhjuwb7GZI8NTTLmW8KtC_qYpbmIRaYo99N6D9hofzZCH37_qyYniVnqrP-5qaXxmituimqXkB8cejtnwZSbTo0FicvADuC7qtI/s1600-h/090124apw+0063.jpg.jpeg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 268px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiL-MIgzlTwkbD58fqPA_G3gSI2MF-M3jSThFX9WJScnhjuwb7GZI8NTTLmW8KtC_qYpbmIRaYo99N6D9hofzZCH37_qyYniVnqrP-5qaXxmituimqXkB8cejtnwZSbTo0FicvADuC7qtI/s400/090124apw+0063.jpg.jpeg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331786640249591490" border="0" /></a><br /></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:85%;">Photos courtesy of Studio 563</span><br /></div></div>britthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17603617614247888287noreply@blogger.com
