Real Wedding of Alanna and David

In June of 2009 David and Alanna traveled from Ireland to get married in Las Vegas, Nevada! With 41 of their closest family and friends they were married at The Little White Wedding Chapel and their reception was at the Neiman Marcus Mariposa Restaurant.



David wanted to surprise Alanna throughout the day by presenting her with some of her "favorite" things. As the limo arrived to The Little White Wedding Chapel she was greeted and serenaded by Elvis, who later continued into the ceremony to sing to all of the guests.

Later at their wedding reception at the beautiful Mariposa Restaurant inside of Neiman Marcus he surprised her with 99 red balloons - which was stemmed from one of her favorite songs "99 Red Balloons".
Their wedding was very inimate, romantic and personal. To view more photos from their wedding please visit our Photo Gallery.

Wedding of Jaime and Shaffer

On the last day of May, at The Green Valley Ranch Resort in Henderson, Nevada a beautiful bride walked down an aisle in a custom made gown which has lace from her soon to be husbands Grandmothers gown.

When Jaime and Shaffer called me just a couple of months ago she was looking for someone to capture her vision and make her wedding day flawless.

Jaime's color palette was dark plum, black, lime green and white. With the help of some amazing vendors, Hadley Han of Jason Kenneth Designs, Desiree LaDesma from RSVP Party Rentals, Mandy Brown from Pacific Event Productions, Cynthia Harris with Classical Entertainment and Mike and Jane Briggs from Good Vibrations Mobile DJs the evening was flawless, spectacular and a night to remember.

Cynthia Harris from Classical Entertainment provided an amazing combination of a Flamenco Guitarist and a Percussionist who played as guests entered and as Jaime and her beautiful bridal party walked down the aisle. During the cocktail hour the duo jammed out to various tunes!

The white dance floor glowed while the Italian Strand lighting surrounded it and created a romantic feel. White over sized lounge furniture and green, black and purple pillows accented the lounge furniture. On her 16 person royal tables, a Blueberry Faille linen provided by BBJ Linen accented all of her wedding colors. Large centerpieces with various types of spring flowers, all in whites brought a romantic elegance to each table.

Green Valley Ranch Resort and Jill Maynard provided amazing service and quality from the beginning stages of planning through the end of their wedding. Jaime and Shaffer had an exquisite menu which consisted of:

An appetizer of Seasonal Mushroom Ravoli with Champagne Cream, Frizzled Leeks . A Belgium Endive Salad with Baby Argula, Pear, Maytag Blue Cheese, Pecan and Vinaigrette Drizzled Dressing. Followed with a Mandarin Orange Sorbet Topped with Vanilla Vodka Intermezzo,

and the main entree was Grilled Tenderloin of Beef and Pan Seared Sea Bass with Truffle Mashed Potato.

The evening was perfect and Jaime and Shaffer are now husband and wife! We would like to thank them for the opportunity to help plan and design their wedding!

Chic Diamond Accents

Table scape's are one of my favorite parts of wedding planning and designing. I love how each table design can translate a clients personality and style while still creating an intimate atmosphere for their guests.

This morning I opened my email to find another incredible design concept which was sent by Andrea Trubiro at LTeventions of Las Vegas. Andrea and I share a lot of sense for style and we both share the love for crystals, bling and anything shiny! Below are photos of some of LTeventions newest products.

Wedding of Becky and Dave

Becky and Dave decided they wanted a very small and intimate wedding at The Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, NV. There were six people in attendance which included the two of them and both of their parents. They were a very non traditional couple who showcased their beauty and love for each other by marrying each other at The Hard Rock Pool during the practice for Hard Rock's Rehab. With the assistance of Brandi Payne of Hard Rock Las Vegas the wedding went off without a hitch!

Becky carried a bouquet of Daisy's, which was provided by Hadley Han of Jason Kenneth Designs, and a cow bell while walking past hundreds of strangers for her wedding processional which happened to be to the song "Brass Monkey".

After the ceremony which was performed by Reverend Phil York the couple joined their parents in a private cabana for a cake and champagne reception. Their wedding cake was created by Dane Bethea of Simple Elegance in Cake Design and was stemmed from a photo submitted by the bride. The characters on the top of the cake were also created by Dane.
