Sunday Funday with Mr. & Mrs. Estrugo!

It would only be appropriate to start off by first thanking Victor Franco for referring me these amazing clients. They are both beautiful inside and out! With just a few months to plan the big day, it was one of my all time favorite. The ceremony and reception were at Red Fish Grill. The weather held up and actually ended up being the most amazing afternoon and evening. No rain, no waves, no worries. It was picture perfect! Thank goodness.

Guests were greeted with a preceremony cocktail and enjoyed some live instrumental music while we all anxiously waited for the bride to arrive. Once we began, we all witnessed an amazing ceremony and enjoyed a spectacular meal. We had the choice of three entrees, all cooked to order.

We accented the entire reception and ceremony area with varaiations of the color orange to match the modern chairs provided by the venue. We added to the beachy theme by offering starfish wrapped with orange ribbon to hold the place cards. Mia Bella Events & Design designed and created the menu cards and the place cards. Orange orchids adorned the dining tables, cake table and dessert station. The chuppaha had hanging orchids adorned by Jorge Nevot, of course.

And of course, to end the night...a firewoks show! Talk about "going out with a bang!" Nice surprise for the guests!

I can truly go on and on! These pictures taken by Randy Borges Photography speak for themselves. More pics on FACEBOOK. Here are some for you to enjoy. This is a true example where less is more. So simple, so classy, and so WOW! Congrats Josy & Ralf. Enjoy your cruise! I want to see pics...

He said "Marry Me." She said "Yes!"

From the moment I met them at their tasting, we totally hit it off! Ralph & Vivian were such a fun couple. They were referred to me by Fetes & Events. I loved this couple; full of energy and humor! Their wedding was simple and yet very elegant. They offered a vintage approach and handed out the CUTEST scratch-off tickets as favors. They were definitely "lucky in love." Their sign-in book was my all time favorite! They took engagement pictures and had an album created with a fifties theme! AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING! BEYOND CREATIVE! It's bitter sweet ending for me because they were so fun to work with, but I am glad they can now call each other husband and wife! Congrats you two! XOXO

Izarys & Tony said "I DO"

With a classic look and pure elegance, this event was one for the books! The JW Marriott in Brickell was the hotspot of the night! There were so many details and goodies for the guests to enjoy. From gorgeous overlays and one-of-a-kind centerpieces by Jorge Nevot, to custom favor boxes and wine stoppers, there was much to leave guests talking! The bride and groom hired an incredible band that gave a brilliant performance throughout the evening. At the end of the night, we set up a cute exit table that offered guests mini cake pops to take home. We decorated the table with "Sweet Dreams" frames all around. Great touch! The guests loved the added attention to detail. The pictures speak for themselves. Thank you Izarys and George for trusting in me on your very special day! I had a great time! XOXO

Here are some of the amazing pics Randy Borges Photography shot for Mia Bella!






The centerpieces above were about 3 feet high and had double sided mirrors on top, hanging crystals, and a variety of open flame candles. The bottom of the piece, was a square base of flowers. So original!

Juntos Hasta Viejo!

I had the pure honor of working this high energy and unique wedding. Jeny and Alex wanted everyone to feel as though they were at a Cuban get-away. It all started with a custom PASSPORT invitation. The details were amazing, to say the least. The room was all lit with green uplighting and white paper palm trees were added with amber uplighting to add to the effect. She used burlap linen with a pretty ivory overlay to add elegance. Afterall it is a wedding. She offered little shotglasses and Cuban cigars on a "favor table" for guests to enjoy. The flower girl carried a coconut with hanging orchids and the bridesmaids carried small fans with handing flowers. AMAZING work by Landys Flowers. We alternated centerpieces between tables. From pineapples to tikki torches, the room was transformed into a tropical paradise. There was so much energy and excitment. This couple enjoyed every single second of the night. A true pleasure! Congrats Jeny & Alex!
