Khloe Kardashian's wedding pictures



Khloe looked absolutely beautiful on her wedding day! I loved her Vera Wang wedding gown it was young, sexy and modern. I didn't like Lamar's suit though I would've liked to see him in black not gray.



It looks like purple is the new "it" wedding color of the season Alyssa Milano also had a purple wedding when she wed in August.

Is 50 to old to get married?


As long as the couple is in love with each other that’s all that matters. It really doesn’t matter how old the bride or groom is. More and more people are waiting to get married later in life now. A lot of 50 year old brides are looking anything but old these days and I have a few pictures to prove it. Let’s face it 50 is not what it used to be, 50 is the new 40. We only live once so why not have what we want, with the man we want, right?



I’ve seen plenty of fabulous mature brides on TV wedding shows and have felt very emotional watching and hearing their story. It really is special to me when I meet a couple who have been together for many years and are still happy enough with each other and in love enough with each other to want to get married.



I met a few couples in the last few weeks that will be tying the knot next year and I want to congratulate them on their commitment. I also want to congratulate Frank and Cecilia for their upcoming wedding in October I couldn’t be happier to plan this wedding for them they truly deserve it.

Happy planning brides! Chao!

Vacation

I was on a family vacation with the in-laws in Cancun Mexico and of course beach weddings came to my mind. A wedding in Mexico would be beautiful and in these economic times a money savor too. I checked out a few sites in case any of my brides are interested.

Well now I'm back to work!

Candy Shoppe

My first Candy Shoppe! And it was a hit!



I helped my sister plan her son’s birthday party at Bowler City and I suggested she have a Candy Shoppe and it was so much fun and really well-received.



Having a Candy Shoppe at your kid’s birthday party is a fun new way to incorporate candy. Instead of the same old favors that you get at every party like chalk, bubbles, cheap candies and dollar store junk why not have a Candy Shoppe? Kids will love it and parents will rave about it! The kids will have a blast picking what candy they want to fill their bags with, it will be like being at a Candy Store just better.





Happy Birthday Gio! We love you

Congratulations Leydiana & Luis 7.25.09


Leydiana and Luis were married Saturday, July 25, 2009 at St. Anthony of Padua Church in Union City, NJ. The reception took place at The Bethwood in Totowa, NJ.



I was so excited to assist Cathy of "For Your Event Planning" in the day of coordination for the happy couple.



I love this aisle runner it looks very elegant and gives it a personal touch. By Aisle Walk With You



The photo booth was a fun and different addition to their wedding. By NJ photobooth



The Wedding Cake was a three tiered round coconut filling and not only was it beautiful but delicious too it was from my favorite bakery "Carlos Bakery" in Hoboken, NJ.



Having a candy bar at your wedding is a great thank you favor for your guest. Everyone loves candy especially at the end of the night for the ride home. It's good to have something sweet to snack on especially after drinking! By For Your Event Planning


Thank you Cathy for giving me the opportunity to work with you on this beautiful wedding for the lovely couple Leydiana and Luis!

Chao!

Anniversary Dance

The anniversary dance is a special dance for all the married couples at a wedding and a beautiful way to recognize the couple married the longest at the reception. The way this works is throughout the song, the DJ names the number of years being married, starting with less than one year. It continues with less than two years, five years, ten years, and so on until the couple who has been married the longest is left dancing. For my wedding my husband and I chose Always and Forever by Heatwave. It’s such a joyous event too for the couple still standing!!!

Are you including an anniversary dance in your reception? If so, to what song?

Should married people go out with their single friends to the bars or clubs?


This is part of my research of "Keeping The Marriage Alive". In general, what do you think is the purpose of going to the bar or club? Is it to hang out with your friends or meet a man/woman? Which brings us to the main question. Is it OK for married people to be at the club or bar?

In my research I found it's not the right atmosphere for married people to hang out and the single friends should respect the married friends relationship. If you really want to go to the club for the purpose it serves...to dance and hear music, why not take your spouse with you? Married people should develop other outsources for interacting with their friends, like bowling, golf, tennis, book clubs or other group activities. I believe there are better ways to enjoy life than trying to act like you're single after you've tied the knot and committed yourself to someone you love.

Let’s open this question up for discussion (is it OK for married people to be at the club or bar?) I would love to know your thoughts on this issue.

2010 Wedding Trend Prediciotion

Predicting the trend for 2010 almost seems too obvious to talk about the economy’s impact. But before you jump to conclusions about how cheap weddings are becoming, know that money is certainly not the only influence on style, fashion, or tradition. In fact, couple are getting more creative and feel freedom to make unique choices.

Here's what I think will be hot next year:

Backyard Weddings at Home



While getting married at home isn't necessarily cheaper, it feels more personal and allows you to have a more intimate affair. With this economy people want to spend less money and sometimes even feel guilty when they do spend money. A backyard event not only helps to put your guests at ease, but also allows you to make more casual, less expensive choices elsewhere.

Chao!
