Happy 4th!!!

Meagan & Marcus are just the BEST! I have so much loved all the time I have gotten to spend with them! They were Married a few weeks ago in an Island celebration, but still wanted to be surroun…

Kristen and Josh…there is so much to be said for a wordsmith like Josh. Just listening to him giving the thank you speech at their wedding summed up how grateful and a “heart of gold” this couple emulates. I was a pleasure to be a part of their fete. Kristen wanted to balance a light and dark tone with early Spring meets industrial vibes. With the dream team in place, I knew it was going to be epic. They also have a love of movies and of course have fun with their signature drink signage. Thanks to the talent and a shout out to my valpal .demo for making it SO hard to choose what pics I want to show off…

Table for 91…loved how Amira and Panos’ wedding came to life last night! The magic formula was: a two day setup, white pigeon release from the bride’s parents animals, cocktails around the pool, a family style Dinner, Iranian desserts with Greek dancing yep…we covered it all!!! Thanks to all the talent that made it possible and my wonderful staff for always being there for me.

Channeling Styles You’re So Golden for Kristin and David’s March fete…from a champagne wall to a wine tasting at cocktail hour and a bourbon bar after Dinner, they meant business. A pink gown for the bride with a gold number for dancing time, a night at the museum reference for the groom and his friends, a live painter and a band that rocked it with Beaunuts and Pearls macarons to finish the night…we were in it to win it.

When you find your place with your face…loved how greenery wall and the custom made monogram that the bride created, come to life for their wedding with pictures of their guests to find their seating assignment. Photo cred

Happy Cinco de Mayo!!!! I LOVED that Crista and Daniel leaned all the way into their Cinco inspired wedding…with maracas to shake as they kissed, a taco truck, and signature wine made just for the occasion, how could you not be in the mood…and of course we ended with a sweet treat…thanks to all that made it the best Cinco de Mayo fused wedding we have ever created photo cred 💓

Yesterday we crisscrossed the state to make Michelle times two and Tiffany’s weddings a success. I am so happy to have this weekend officially in the books. I cannot thank my staff enough and look forward to all the loveliness that awaits!! thanks for the sneak peek!!

What a way to start the season…it was surreal how we felt after this weekend. It was as if the bandages had been taken off and we could move finally. Remembering when there was a time we felt like we would never have events again, I promised myself I won’t forget that and it makes someone whom has been in this industry for 20 years, not to lose site that we should always be GRATEFUL. This year is going to be epic from the clients we have the pleasure to work with and the designs we have in motion to personalize their event…it will be all that we prayed for in the lockdown and then some.

What you see, a happy couple, a fabulous wedding and an epic throw down complete with a Froze Rose bar and bourbon tasting…what is not pictured, is COVID flipping the script on their event and a rescue on hair and makeup the day of the wedding…but nothing phased us and we handled it all with grace and the connections we have. That is what you don’t see here…making it look effortless is where we thrive…photo cred to the lovely

If I post tropical flowers, we can manifest warmer weather, right? I will try anything at this point. We just want to get to allllll the loveliness we have a tap for this Spring/Summer please and thank you.

One from the vault…when we met Samantha, I felt her positive personality was infectious and we were stoked to work with her on preppy/urban/gold/rose gold wedding together. kicked the party in high gear with our surprise of lit tambourines for the dance floor. cooled us off on a hot summa’ night with a sweet treat. I miss you Samantha!!! Congrats on the growing family!!!

According to Ava and Evelyn it is bussin’ that we won #1 in in both categories of Best Event Planner and Best Day of Planner. This one was extra sweet coming off of an epically challenging year, and being able to shout to the rooftops officially we are celebrating 20 YEARS of being in the event industry!!! I’ll talk more about what hitting this milestone means to us later. This award is ONLY because of the fabulous clients we have, wonderful friendships with vendors and our staff, and the passion and love for this industry we can adamantly say is like no other. THANK YOU for this. We are indebted to you for your support. We can’t wait to get it rockin’ for ‘22!!!

Thank you 2021…without you we would not have had the best client experiences, wonderful staff to work along side, and new digs that I cannot wait to give a tour of…we also made the magic happen and grew in every sense of the word. All I can say is THANK YOU to our friendors, brides and grooms and our staff…onward and upward!!!

Transformations…something we absolutely love doing. The look on guests faces, the reveals we host with our clients…getting just as emotional as they are or the staff that says they have never seen it look this good…that is why we love taking a space and creating a perspective of what the client wants to emulate. We strive for your event to take on your persona aesthetically. This wedding was just as beautiful as .bee.11 is both inside and out. 🤍💙

06/12/2021

The light at the end…we can officially say we made it thru 2021 now. Not without bruises and burns, but with also hugs, lots of happy tears and a determination like no other. I can’t talk about this year without being SUPER emotional as most in our field probably feel the same. To sum it up I am overwhelmed with a since of gratitude to our staff, vendors that are friends and clients that have shown grace. My hope is for an even more wonderful new year to come…cheers to reflections and celebrations of making thru the biggest year and onward to an even better year to come for us all.

M & C’s bright fete was inspired by her love of color, their fun loving personalities, and the fact it was the last weekend we could getaway with doing something “Summatime”. Thank you for trusting us and letting us do our magic! Special shout out to for bringing it, and for capturing it along with ❤️🧡💚💛🖤

Our new home…and all decked out for the holidays!!! It all seems surreal sounds a little overused, but it is crazy that we finished a mammoth amount of events, moved an office we worked in for 14 years and now trying to fix it up for our clients and friendors all while staying on top of our clients before the holidays and still have holiday weddings…but I can’t wait to show you the inside…our prop floor, the design area, and outdoor spaces are just going to be so helpful for all of our clients…with champagne and espresso flowing…bring it!!! And all within walking distance from other wedding vendors

Going out with a BANG (or fabulous BOHO to the extreme) into our off season officially starts today. There are so many take aways from this weekend. I will drop one pearl today…I cannot tell you how many brides and grooms we rescued this year. It is unreal what is happening in the jungle of planning a wedding out there. I could tell you stories to make your jaw drop, but that is not going to help and we refuse to use the scare tacit. All I will say is we have your back, we will take care of you, and we love all things wedding!!! Shoutout to my galpal Nicole…you looked stunning my dear…

This is the post I have been wanting to publish for so long on where I have been and where I am going. I realize I can’t say it all now. I saved more for another time, but here we go… When I was little we would have Dinner at my Nana’s once a week. I remember riding my tricycle down to the mom and pop grocery around the corner with her to pick up what she would cook that evening. I could tell you how the store was laid out in my mind as if it was yesterday. I was very close with her is an understatement and I looked forward to supper with her and my grandfather. Fast forward to 2007, when I desperately needed an office I found myself driving around that area and stopped my car in the middle of the street when I saw a for rent sign in the grocery that brought back so many memories. Once it was mine, I felt close to Nana when I was there. It felt like home. I grew my business there. I worked way too many long nights in the first 14 years creating events with clients there. We even hosted my grandparent’s 60th wedding anniversary party there. I called it my little bubble. I dealt with so much personally/emotionally in that building that when I got the call it was sold, I literally placed my hand on the wall as I felt like the building could comfort me. I outgrew the place as many of my clients will tell you but I loved the area and the nostalgia it brought me daily was calming. I told everyone I am not leaving until I absolutely had to. Once it was sold, I realized I have to move 14 years of an office, tackle the biggest wedding year comeback from the lockdown, and I needed to find a new home for my clients and my business!? I was in shock…but like the first go around, I was driving in between appts when I found this cute number in the last pic. It was the only place that felt like home and is around the corner from one of the first homes my Nana had as a young parent. So our huge announcement and our next new chapter is that we are officially “On the Avenues” of Libbie and Grove!! Our address is now 5812 1/2 Grove Avenue. We can’t wait to make this our new home to all things wedding!!

Madison melted me for a couple of reasons: her demeanor, her love of color, and her love of Coke we both share…when she said she wanted personalized Coke bottles, I think my lips quivered a bit. Salty late night bites served three ways are best to couple it with. I literally had to guard the table until and got there to shoot it. Yes this is what wedding dreams are made of…

The past 72 hours were some of the most trying, beautiful and challenging I have ever been thru in my 19 years in this industry I love so deeply. I see things differently after literally eating, sleeping and breathing weddings nonstop the past 3 days. It was filled with awesome highs and of course shocking lows as one of my clients was rushed into emergency surgery the day of her wedding. If I wasn’t so tired I could cry right now. But all this weekend did was prove a couple of things to me: my team is the best, I still love all things wedding even if we are beat up, and that we know how to handle any situation that comes at us from difficulties to unforeseen emergencies and that is how I know I was put on this earth to do this. Regardless of how we are treated or what is thrown at us, we not only survived but thrived. One of my right hands even said honestly this all went so well and there is not one “Monday Morning Quarterback” thing I would redo. I am so proud that we could tame the wild beast called logistics…on to the next…

Birds flying high
You know how I feel
Sun in the sky
You know how I feel
Breeze driftin' on by
You know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good…

Yesterday had it all: A 18 hour day, two weddings and two extremely sweet couples. Between a tea party and an epic dance party, it was everything I hoped for it to be…special shout out to my staff that weathered the heat, the long day and the mammoth task of over 35 different types of confections for a traditional PA cookie table. Then we were off to set up a copper and gold fete for Ruthie at LGBG. Being with my work family between the two events supporting each other made it all the easier. Today being a day of rest? NOPE, we are working between eight of us on another huge surprise I will share in November…for now take a peek on stories of all the fun we had making the magic happen…

Some call it basic, I call it timeless…

05/09/2021

I see you long weekend, and I raise you weddings, a huge project, and enough paperwork to make a grown person cry…but the results are WORTH IT ALL…I just have to have an IV of Coke Zero…

16/08/2021

This is how we feel on Sundays…after finishing a wedding, being able to relive it in pics, and spending time with my little ones and then the paperwork for next week begins…yep I will have two glasses…
