Not many couples are as cute as Jillian and Steven!  Let me just say that they are freaking adorable.   We had the best time with them and their families.  

It was a gorgeous day at Admiral's Cove and we had the best vendor team.

We are excited to share Leeann and Matt's fantastic wedding at Jupiter Beach Resort.  But first a little bit of a story.  I met Leeann and Matt in 2019.  They always wanted a summer 2021 wedding.  And then Covid arrived in our lives.  Our plan was to stay the course and just take it all one day at a time.  We kept going with wedding weekend planning.  Matt continued his job as a golf pro and Leeann and kept working as a veterinarian.  We were jamming along. Bridesmaid dresses were ordered.  And then the company from which we ordered them went out of business due to covid.  Ok, so creative thinking we were able to order direct from the manufacturer.  All was good until the DHL that was taking the dresses to their processing center caught on fire.  Yep, that's right folks bridesmaid dresses were destroyed in a DHL truck fire.  Definitely a first for this wedding planner.  Thankfully the manufacturer was able to make and resend them quickly.  So let that be a lesson to order things early! 

And the beachfront welcome party with fabulous steel drummer.  Perfection for a summer South Florida night. 

What made Leeann and Matt's wedding so incredible was all of the personal touches.

Their knot tying ceremony was perfectly them and symbolized the strength of their relationship.

She was the third generation bride in her family to use the same cake topper.

There were chocolate recreations of their doggies peaking out the cake.

Leeann's bespoke cowboy boots were fire. Did we mention that they live in Texas?!

Her custom denim jacket was the perfect compliment to her boots.

All the groomsmen were given socks that had pictures of Matt's face on them.   ;-)

The poem her dad wrote for he and recited during his speech, made everyone at the reception cry. 

Matt and Leeann named their signature cocktails after their doggies.

They shared so many beautiful family photos on their memory table.  We loved seeing wedding photos from multiple generations in their families.

And the blue smoke during their sunset photos was the perfect against the waning light of the evening.

And the chocolates from Hoffman's Chocolates that were the favors for each guest were so yummy!

All of these little details are what makes a wedding unique and personal.  All of their guests left the wedding feeling as though they got to know a little bit more about them. Everyone had an incredible weekend and that's what it's all about.  People came from near and far to share in their love and witness them making a lifetime commitment to each other.  And that my friends is what all of this is all about!

Hey everyone!  So, life is slowly getting back to normal and that makes us so happy.  It means we get to start celebrating again.  So today we are taking a look back at Daniella and Andrew's wedding to help us remember that weddings are so beautiful and magical and everything we love!

First of all, Daniella and Andrew are two of the kindest, most fun, down to earth and all around cool people.  We had so much fun with their families and friends.  And the star of the day was the adorable, rescue dog - Daisy!  She walked down the aisle and stole the show during all of the photos!

They had a super fun rehearsal dinner at The Colony the night prior to the wedding.  Check out the cool pink "yeti" cooler filled with mini-champagne bottles.  

Andrew's aunt owns a custom clothing boutique and made all of the suits for the guys. And they were looking FABULOUS!  Danielle was looking a like dream in her dress from Lighthouse Bridal.  And her hair and make up was by the incredibly talented team at Kiss This Make Up.   Decor was designed by the amazing Nancy with Xquisite Events with linens from Atlas Event Rentals.  Everyone danced the night away and Rock with U - DJ Ricky City and the crew were on fire!

And all of this magic was captured by Jessica Bordner Photography, who is pure magic.  And the most wonderful May and Jamie from Key Moment Flims.

Daniella's Man of Honor has been her best friend since high school.  And he gave one of the best, most heartfelt wedding toasts that I have heard in over 10 years.  There were tears all around!  

It's these moments that combined into a whole day that make a wedding so special!  And we live for those moments!

Hey y'all!  So every now and then the stars align and you get to help one of your best friends plan his wedding!  Todd and I met several years ago as he was the Event Designer for one of our weddings in Palm Beach.  We found that we worked the same way and had a lot of things in common.  And over the years Todd has become one of my closest friends.  He met Antonio a couple of years ago through friends...and the rest, as they say, is history!  These two are so in love and it was such an incredible honor to be able to help them create their wedding day!  

PS Check out their recessional and the lightsaber surprise.  Antonio loves Star Wars so we surprised him with the lightsabers and the Star Wars Theme Music as they exited the ceremony!

Hi All,  I know we are all dealing with ongoing Pandemic.  But there is hope and weddings and events are booking.  Fall 2021 and Spring 2022 are booking quickly...Even Fall 2022 is booking now.  So don't hesitate or your first choice wedding pro may be booked!

I wanted to take a moment to talk about the conccept of the Day of Wedding Coordinator.  This is a solution that many publications and websites suggest as a way to save money or to use if you don't want to hire a "full wedding planner."  While it is less expensive for the planning fees, there is a lot of misunderstanding about what role the planner plays in your wedding planning process.

We call this process Wedding and Event Management.  We get it, some of you want to handle every single detail on your own.  That's cool!  But remember that while you have all of those fabulous details in your head and have been working on them for a long, we are not part of all of those decisions that you are making.  It takes us time to digest and understand what you want and need on your wedding day.  

That's why we do a monthly check-in just to see how things are going.  And answer random questions.  I can't stress this enough...so many times I have been told "oh i won't have questions...and then there are questions...which we happily answer."  or "i wish i understood all you do, I would have hired you for more of the process."

We can't just show up the day of the wedding and execute your vision.  It would be impossible.  We will book this package for you as far in advance as you want. And honestly it can give you a sense of peace during the process to know that you have someone for your big day.  We also provide you with a preferred vendor list (which is continously being updated and evolving).  We also ask that you send us copies of all of your contracts with other wedding pros.  We review them and make sure all is covered...and we need them to confirm that is everything is done per contract specifications on the wedding day.

We start to get super involved in the last 4-6 weeks before your wedding. This is also the time when the stress levels tend to peak for our couples..everyone is getting involved and sharing their opinions.  We can be a neutral 3rd party for you.  We listen, we don't judge, we help talk you through the stress.

During this time, we review everything with you - every small detail.  We create your first draft of your timeline approximately 30 days out from the wedding.  This is done in collaboration with all of your wedding pros.  We start creating a weekend itinerary for you and your wedding party and families.  

Then we turn our attention to the rehearsal.  We will be there for a maximum of 2 hours for rehearsal coverage and guidance.  Usually it takes 45 minutes at the most.  At rehearsal time (or prior) we like to collect all of the items for the wedding day, such as toasting flutes, cake cutting set, favors, place cards, menus, programs and more. This way you don't have to remember to bring anything on the wedding day.

After all of this, then we get to the wedding day.  We are the first to arrive and last to depart on your wedding day.  We coordinate all of the set up, take down, anything that happens during the day. We gather up all of your personal items, along with your designated representative and get them to your hotel or car.  

We make sure you get some of your awesome appetizers while you are taking photos.  We bring your comfy shoes to you so that you can dance the night away.    We keep everyone on time and focused.  And so much more.

It is such a thrill to see it all come together and see the happiness on your face.  Just remember that it is much more than showing up on the day of the wedding.  And with over 11 years of creating weddings in South Florida, we have the experience, knowledge and understanding of what it takes to make this all happen for you.

Remember, you deserve a Fabuluxe Day!
