The Journey of Love.


After watching a little movie called 27 Dresses, I laughed when I thought about how many similarities I could find within my own life and the many events that took place throughout the movie. Not that I've been a bridesmaid that many times, but instead the frenzied schedule I take part in while attending and organizing
weddings every weekend between April and October...Prime Time Wedding Season !

Which is why I thought it would make the perfect introduction for my first blog !!!

I wanted to begin writing a weekly blog, to able everyone out there a chance to get
a little taste of what life is like for me and to get to know my personality
before you even stop into my boutique and meet me =)

I cannot pinpoint the exact moment I fell in love with weddings,
however, I did know at a very young age this was my purpose

in life. I knew that it would not only be a career for me,
but a way of life that I knew
I would enjoy every second of !
The energy and excitement
that is found in every wedding
is something that almost can not
be explained, but only experienced.
(Of course, there are ups and downs along the journey, but it is always worth it!)


One of my favorite moments of the wedding ceremony is
when I am with the bride and her father/escort,
right before she is lead into the procession. I hold her train and say "Here we go!"
as the ushers open the doors that lead her into the crowd of loved ones.
It's an amazing feeling to see the bride take her first steps,
literally, into a new path in life...a new journey !

And the look
on the groom's face as his future wife enters the ceremony,
it is
something of undeniable love, and these are the moments that I live for !
To be in the presence
of that moment is what keeps my passion for weddings alive.
(And of course, it makes me look forward to my own big day !)

I hope this blog will give everyone out there a sense of the love I have for what I do and a chance to experience all the possibilities I can offer you in the planning of your own special day.

To LOVE....Cheers !!!

An "Old World" Themed Wedding.

Here are a few photos from a wedding I coordinated the sixth of June...
Nico & Silvia Gazzano
Just a little taste of the variety of styles I can work with.



The Guest Book Table.








More decorations I worked on.
The invitation was placed in this frame and
the burnt edges gave it a very Old World feel.



The Sweetheart Table.
The subtle decorations around the table
tied in with the "Garden of Love" quote written on the vintage gold mirror.




End of the night with the Bride, Silvia
I also designed her wedding gown.
