The Brides Cafe

You should all take the time to look at www.thebridescafe.com . It is an awesome website that features wedding pictures from all sorts of weddings. They recently featured Christian , The Fierce One, from Project Runway.
The pictures are absolutely beautiful! It's a pleasure each day to view. A few of my brides have selected the sorts of pictures they want from ones they've seen at this site. So, why not drop by for a bite at The Brides Cafe!

The Fashionista Experience

I just love planning! I have been coordinating with Kathy Presley from Nordstrom on the event ad let me tell you , we have some awesome ideas. I won't share EVERYTHING here until after the event. I still want a few surprises for the readers of this blog who will attend the event.

We are having fashion wardrobing tips including hot to accessorize the LBD , bra fittings (Le Mystere is the BEST and well worth the money), makeup tips and demo from a Bobbie Brown rep. My sister has even agreed to be a makeup model. She NEVER wears makeup.


I am starting to make mockups of my tablescapes and they look fabulous.

The invitations should be arriving shortly and I can't wait to start getting R.S.V.P.'s - yes's of course!

Have a super weekend !

Google Notebook

We all like to surf the web to find inspiration for our next events. Google has just come up with a great new service called Google Notebook– it allows you to clip pages, images, selections, etc. from the web and put them in a virtual notebook.
Now you can share your ideas with friends, bridesmaids, your wedding planner, cake designer, - everyone who needs to be in the know.
You can also add notes to the things you put in your notebook. No more adding something to your browser favorites and forgetting exactly what it was you liked about that picture or page.
Get started with your Google Notebook today!

New venue

The Dean Johnson Gallery is a great new venue where you can host your next event. It can accomodate 150-200 with high top table. This would be perfect for a networking event. They are located at 646 Mass. Ave. in Indy.
Cost? $500 - a steal considering you also get to look at some fabulous art!

Brooks-Hodges Wedding

So, we did the cake testing with the baker. Holly and Will wanted their cake to take like a thin mint and from what I hear it did. Debra Gailbraith , the baker, DELIVERED! Holly & Will & my husband said that it was absolutely delicious.

Holly & Will are so much fun. I have had a blast planning their wedding. Just think - Dec. 27 will be here before you know it.
