Queenie featured once again! + other updates!

Helloooooo…

I am honored that our Queen of Hearts photoshoot is featured once again, this time on The Recycled Bride, HERE. Just in time for Valentine’s Day 🙂 I think it’s a lovely inspiration piece for such a holiday. I find myself more and more in love with these images as time passes. Thanks to the lovely AG for passing along the info, not to mention, again, the photos. ❤

Other updates –

So last night we did not win the design challenge (nor the people’s choice). 😦

i am convinced i will never win anything in my life. (stupid mega millions..)

BUT I could not have felt more like a winner because we did such a fun, creative and unique tablescape and I am so (SO) proud of my team IBICAKE & ZOIE. i love working with these girls and am happy that I get to work alongside friends, and produce amazingness. Anyway, our tablescape: I can’t wait to share pics bc the concept and scape may just knock your socks off. I wish I had a sneak peak to share, but I hate carrying cameras around. So please, be patient. :] In the meantime here are our PHOTOCUBE pics, a few of many:

AND, I am happy to announce that my good friend Floral Elements, along side with SoHappiTogether & OliveHuePaper won the judged contest! Nothing but love to my fellow vendors. I just met Nancy/SoHappi last night and she is really cool 🙂 Love meeting new industry friends.

This morning, I checked out some amazing photos from a previous wedding, and you ought to come back soon to check em out. You will not be sorry.

Have a lovely Thursday. The weekend is near. I need to get off the internet and clean and pack and meet and call. The cold windy potentially snowy Seattle calls this weekend. My first time. I look forward to it. Ciao.

The Queen of Hearts (featured…!)

Hello hello… I wanted to share with you all the excitement that I have had for the past … couple of weeks.

“Our story is set in Wonderland. We know what’s going on with the Mad Hatter and his infamous tea parties. They are the talk of the town and Everyone wants to be on the list. No wonder why the Queen of Hearts is always angry. Sorry, was always angry.

For she has found true love at long last. The Queen is in LOVE… Together she and her groom to be are hosting a wedding party reception, her way. Her elite guest list is limited to a special few. Held at her private palace, in the gardens, it is nothing out of the ordinary for her majesty. Just feathers and fluff. Opulence. Rich satin, glitz and glam. Natural greens & mushrooms. Delectable dessert. Roses red. Her way…”

So, Alice in Wonderland, we all know the story, and we love it. We all went to see the movie, and we loved it. Many of us were inspired and thus came the creation of many WONDERFUL photo shoots. As much as I wanted, longed to create a fun, whimsical and beautiful tea party, and by the time I thought to pull together a shoot, I knew it would have been redundant, and c’mon, there’s just no competing with this lovely shoot or this one. So, I set out to do something a little different. And how awesome is GreyLikesWeddings for featuring us?! A huge thank you to Summer!

PLEASE CHECK IT OUT HERE!

The team: I called upon Olivia Wu with Zoie Events to be my coordinator extraordinaire and she of course outdid herself. The lovely Adrienne Gunde enthusiastically photographed our shoot and I couldn’t have asked for more. And of course I asked Miss Laurie Mura of IBICAKE to make our fun whimsical and beautiful wedding cake… I LOVE THAT SHE PAINTED THE ROSES RED!!! (Did I mention we gave ourselves a matter of days to pull this together? Why, I don’t know… I seem to enjoying making things difficult! But what an incredible team, no?).

Some additional images I would like to share… Enjoy!
