We lit up the side columns to bring in an overall romantic feel to the room

Satin Ceiling Decor with 3 of our three tier chandeliers and one shabby chic chandelier in the middle to bring it all together.

Shabby Chic Chandelier's hung as side accents

Accent Runners for Jenna's wedding were in a Dark Aqua and in a Pintuck style

Jenna & Justin

The wedding & reception took place at the Winter Haven Worship Center.

Jenna was such a pleasure to work with, she was a very sweet bride to be!

I met with Jenna's mother about 6 weeks or so before the wedding and she wanted to decorate the ceiling in order to bring a more romantic feel to the room. The theme was a vintage one and the colors were ivory with a hint of Dark Aqua.

We draped the ceiling with a beautiful ivory satin material and added our 3 tier crystal chandeliers in the center. Along the side we hung our Shabby Chic Chandeliers. Check out some pics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tea Party Pics

I wanted to post some pics of the Tea Party I had here at the studio last month.

We came together for a cause... Proceeds from the tea party were donated to the Lupus Foundation of Florida. There was a walk for Lupus at Tropicana Field on May 22nd as well.

I walked with my family and I was happy to be there. Please let others know about this organization. Many woman may have this disease and not know that they have it.

I have grown closer to this cause because my mother has been affected with this disease for 7 years now, I also have a very close friend who struggles with this disease. There is not enough information about Lupus and there is no cure. Please visit http://www.lupusfl.org/ for futher information. Pray for a cure and please support the Lupus Foundation.

The Knot

2010-05-06T08:39:00.001-07:00

MINI CAKES AMAZING!!!!!

The Living Fountain (Sorry Pics came out a bit blurry)

The Knot's networking event at the Waldorf Astoria in Orlando Florida. It was unbelievable, you were welcomed by a violinist playing beautiful music. There was a beautiful statue that came to life. Honestly I do not know how they can stand still for so long... The evening began in the ballroom where there were cocktails and delicious food. There was a live band playing music in the ballroom which sounded amazing.

Then there was a trapeze act that was really romantic, they had a man and woman do a romantic trapeze act to a Celine Dion song. OH!!!! There was another statue inside of the ballroom, she was in the middle of a water fountain and then she came to life and did a performance. If you are looking for a way to make your cocktail hour unique I would suggest adding a Living Creation act to your cocktail hour. Believe me no one will ever forget it=)

After all of the events in the ballroom took place, we headed out to the ISLAND... It is an outside area which is outside of the hotel across a small bridge. Well the party was just starting at this point, there was more food and more cocktails. There was ice cream, music and check out the pics of these tiny cake masterpieces! They are bride and groom canvas paintings with little wedding cakes sitting on acrylic shelves. It was a very unique time and full of unique ideas. I love the KNOT!!!!!

Smaller crystal centerpiece with red rose petals

Crystal Ballroom Marriott World Center Resort Orlando

TENOROC PROM 2010!!!!!!

We were very fortunate to be a part of Tenoroc's Highschool Prom on April 10th, 2010.

The theme was "Diamonds are Forever". It took place at the Marriott World Center Orlando inside of the Crystal Ballroom (which tied in perfectly with the theme).

Based on the consultation I had with Denay Copeland (Prom Coordinator & staff member of Teneroc High School), she wanted beautiful crystal centerpieces for the larger tables and a smaller centerpiece to accent the smaller tables. We added a sparkling black organza overlay which looked AMAZING=) The centerpieces were 3 tier crystal beaded pieces set on a trumpet style vase. We added height by placing a black satin cube under each centerpiece and added crystals inside of each vase, filled them with water, added a submersible light and to top it all off...

We added red rose petals inside of each vase and then places rose petals on top of each arrangement. THESE CENTERPIECES WILL DEFINITELY GIVE ANY ROOM THE WOW FACTOR!!!!

Thank you Teneroc HS for allowing us to be a part of your prom!

ROSE WAS THE COLOR!!!!

Jenna & Don came to me from Land o' Lakes Florida. They were going to have their ceremony and reception here in Lakeland. The ceremony took place right in front of Lake Mirror and the reception took place in the Lake Mirror Auditorium. I loved that Jenna was always thinking outside of the box.

We used the rectangular tables on site and arranged them in L shaped sections. The centerpieces were very pretty, they were manzanita branches with fresh orchids on each branch. I loved making those centerpieces. The linens we ivory with rose colored sashes and rose colored table runners.

Jenna also wanted her bouquet to be on the modern side, so based on what she wanted and some images she had emailed to me I put mini Calla lilies, roses, cymbidium orchids, ti leaves and crystals... It was very nice!!!!

Darjon Photography from Tampa, FL were great to work with.

They were extremely professional and I can not wait to see the professional photos!

The cake was from Let Them Eat Cake! Tampa

Affordable Catering were the caterers for the evening and they did and amaizing job!

Sierra's Wedding!

Sierra wanted a classic clean theme for her wedding with crystal accents throughout. I first met with her in October of 2009 to discuss her vision and she described it to me. We went over some ideas, changed the chair covers from the standard polyester chair cover to the pillowcase satin chair cover. We added creme roses to the centerpieces and submersive lighting as well to give the reception an extra special glow. We added ceiling decor in ivory and instead of a polyester tablecloth with a satin ivory overlay we did satin table linens.

When we started to work on the centerpieces they looked perfect. I was so excited for her because I knew that everything was coming along as we had discussed it.

After days of getting everything set for her wedding that BIG day was here. We arrived to set up her reception site and it all came together.

She loved it=)

After setting up Ana & Dennis's wedding we got ready for a pre-opening night.

The feeling of having the opportunity to grow your business is a great one.

Ana & Dennis were married on Feb. 27th, 2010 at Hollis Gardens and they had their reception in the Magnolia Building.

Ana was so delighted that we were able to match our linens to her exact wedding color...

Persimmon

She called me we met and she got the linens she was looking for!

Here are some pictures that we took of the set up. Our persimmon table runners and our ceiling decor in white.

Ana recently let me view her professional pictures and she looked amazing.

The reception had all of the flowers in place and the candles were lit.

Everything was beautiful=)

Congratulation to Ana & Dennis! May they be blessed with one another for a very long time.
