Table Numbers- Original Touches

I just completed our December 31, 2012 wedding's table numbers and I must say that we did a pretty awesome job!
In this design, we took the engagement photo session of Julie and Edwin with No Ordinary Love photographer- Tatiana Cohen, and simply printed them out on photo paper. the numbers were added to give a little pop. On the back we also stenciled the number so as to have an overall effect and view for their guest. And you all know I love the bling- so we incorporated the color of their wedding and beaded it through with bling!
Table Number- with Bride and Groom's engagement picture on it.
Not to be confused with Escort cards; which has every guests' name individually and table numbers, the Table numbers, besides being oh so very helpful,  are very important to the overall look and feel of any elegant wedding. I say this because your wedding day should encompass all the elements that reflect you and your spouses ideas, energy and feelings about one another. This little detail really sets the tone for so little money.

On the creativity side- there is no limit- so long as it represents you both. Go wild! If you like ballet and he likes sports find a melding of the two. The really popular ones are the ones where the bride and groom have pictures of the themselves at the age of the table number. Very cute; I like more for a formal babyshower or birthday party... but none the less it represents.

I need a diamond that I can find in the sand

So on my many conversation with fabulous bride, Julie, I had noticed that she does not wear her engagement ring. She explained that she works in the OR and that having jewelry on is a no-no, so she rather not risk it. Completely understandable.

She begins to tell me that when it was first discussed about  getting her engagement ring- she advise Edwin that she wanted a ring with a diamond of a size that "if I were to loose it in the sand I could find it!"

She said "I don't want, nor deserve a speck of dust on my finger!"
Hilarious. I was cracking up and still am!
Gotta love her Aquarian nature!


So during their engagement shoot at Bill Baggs State Park, the beautiful ring came out! With diamonds all the around like a Infinity band and a beautiful diamond in the middle- I am sure, that should it ever, accidentally get lost in the sand that they will be able to find!
 Julie (Aquarius) and Edwin (Sagittarius); are a fabulous couple with Bahamian and Haitian decedent. She works in the operations room of a South Florida hospital and he for the Miami Dolphins. He also heads a charity organization, which helps inner city youths called IMPACT.
Their wedding will be taking place at The Miami Beach Botanical Gardens, December 31,2012.

Mario Lopez and Courtney Mazza get married!

Well as the title say Mario Lopez and long time fiance, the beautiful Courtney Mazza get married. ABOUT TIME!
They got married in an absolutely beautiful Mexican oceanside near Punta Mita with Girls Gone Wild, founder Joe Francis, lending them his 30 million dollar mansion for the wedding.
The ceremony was held under an all white, ornate, constructed gazebo and the accent colors were a beautiful blush pink. (I see Courtney all over this).
There was also a Mariachi band!
Catholic style wedding with priest, rosary and all.

Lopez' nuptials with Mazza are slated to air on TLC network on December 8.

PROPOSAL:
New Year's 2012
The television star, 39, popped the question over New Year's weekend last year in Ixtapa, Mexico.
'We took a walk alone as the sun was setting,' he told UsWeekly after the proposal.
'I told Courtney that I wanted the mother of my children to have their last name. She was silent at first from shock, then she leaped for joy and did a little jete!'
She added: 'Besides our daughter's birth, this was the best moment of my life!' 

COURTNEY:
Beautiful lace Catherdral length veil- mantilla
Gown- Lace mermaid style Ines Di Santo
Second gown for the reception- so totally appropriate- especially since she looked gorgeous in it.
 Now to the party: The married couple wall down the aisle after their nuptials, with Gia holding on to her daddy's hand
 The Reception is uber elegant and lux. With crystals wrapped around the table and acrylic seating with monogrammed initials, chivarei chairs covered in lace backing and uber lux benches- the view is stunning. A girl's dream wedding come true.



Luxurious: A view of the dining tables, with the chairs featuring the couples monogram with the combined letters of 'C' and 'M'
You also have to check out their dance floor. I always love the LED lighting dance floor- does it not scream to dance all night!! Lights up the night- especially since this was an outside event!
 Perfect evening: The happy family danced the night away, with candle lights flickering in the background on the dinner tables

Truly Unique Keepsake or Perfect Gift!

So as I continue to work on my Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Pinterest and so many more- that everyone once in awhile I run into a really unique vendor that has something that I consider creative and wonderful.
I had to get information on these designs and what her imagination goes through to think of these beautiful designs. Check out Wendy Nicola-an artist who does fabulous designs with your invitations.
https://3xoncq.blu.livefilestore.com/y1mnp5cXsEqdHm8KD2hRUukvJX8jWUrglVHyOPQUL3KgxnaAfm_7YE7H6hfIILby6dYaytGoE6ZPPinNw8LB0YEWAbB5fHNfBT1qaLa8aPIhQ8/Strobel1.jpg?psid=1
 What is your media?:
"My media is watercolor and ink and the product can be a 2-dimensional painting or a 3D collage".
How do you start on the design?:
"I collect the invitation, save-the-date, menu, or any other parts of the wedding stationery and create my collages. I generally work closely with my clients to learn of the Bride's style, colors, and flowers before I begin".
What do you use?:
"In the past I have incorporated pictures, flower petals, lace, ribbon and many other pieces of the event to create a one of a kind keepsake for the Bride or Mother OTB".
What makes your art so unique?:
"All of the florals added to the piece are hand painted and unique, I do not work from templates. The finished art is as unique as each wedding and comes ready to hang!"
Ok, what is the price for these beautiful designs?:
"The Art ranges from $150 -$400 and I create for many other events such as Baptisms, Anniversaries, Retirements, Vacations, Baby Announcements, etc. This makes an excellent keepsake and gift for anyone that wishes to remember a special Day!"

Simply a perfectly unique gift to give.
