“April Showers Bring May Flowers” right? Well that’s been the rule of thumb for ever and when you have a May wedding, an outdoor wedding and especially in Florida, we have two variables.
Rain is a given but in Florida we have the humidity and it was decided that Colleen and James’ wedding would go indoors and when you have a venue that does not have another alternative for indoors with such a guest count, you set the room in advance, temporarily drape out the whole room as your designed and perfectly set tables are staged behind the drapes. So that’s what we did here. Yes, ceremony ends, guests move to cocktail hour and the drapes come down, chairs are quickly stacked and tables are moved based on the diagram and chairs are now set around the tables. Ohhhh it gets real! Real FAST!
Crazy? Nooooo way! Well, maybe a little…. Fast paced? YESSSS! And when you put together a team of Rock Star professionals and your team, we transform that same room from ceremony to reception in an hour. But in a case like this and the size of this wedding, I’ll always suggest to the planner that we extend the cocktail hour to 1.25 hrs because there’s a lot going on that the guests don’t see and we need to leave the space PERFECT and that’s what we did with the help of the venue, the caterer, our team, the planner and her team.
BASE HIT - HOME RUN - TOUCH DOWN - GOOOOOOOL - SLAM DUNK - GRAND PRIX!!! You name the sport, we took home the championship and we do it every time.
A BIG SHOIT OUT to my team on that day as well! Without them, I can’t do this alone. It takes a village!
Peace Out!
