Sometimes along the wedding journey a couple may find thesmselves in a position where a vendor isn't a good fit.  And that's ok.  I know I am not right for everyone as well.  Erica and Josh came to me after they didn't have the right fit with another vendor.  

We talked about how they work, what they needed and how to get things going.  And we created a new path forward for them.  The result was a Miami Wedding at the beautiful Ritz-Cartlon South Beach, that incorporated elements that were a testament to them as couple. 

And honestly, that's all we want.  Erica and Josh love board games, and thinking outside the box.  But the moments where Erica is smiling at something someone said or Josh is having a moment with his mom, those moments are why we do this job.

A huge thank you to Martin M. and the team at The Ritz-Carlton South Beach for incredible service all weekend.  Petal Productions designed a look that fit their aesthetic, and their budget.  Nat and Bryan Photography captured all of the moments and details perfectly.  

And most of all thank you, Erica and Josh, for allowing Fabuluxe Events to be part of your weekend of love and commitment.

 

PS.  Our favorite part was the recessional song "Africa" because these two headed to an African Safari for their honeymoon!

Happy Friday everyone!  I wanted to talk about how us being involved with wedding and event organizations on a local and national level, helps us be better planners for you.

First of all, we never want to stop learning.  This industry is ever-changing, always evolving and incredibly creative.  Taking classes through multiple organizations is key to learning about new developments throughout the industry.  

Being involved in the planning of national events is incredible for new connections and ideas.  This year Fabuluxe Events, was proud to partner with CaterSource and The Special Event on their Connect Social Event.  This is the event that starts the week for Catersource and The Special Event.  

Also, in 2025 I am so proud to be the President of WIPA Southeast Florida (Wedding Industry Professionals Association).  Our area covers Palm Beach to Miami.  In the last 2.5 years of being involved in WiPA I have met people incredibly talented people from all over the country, attended many educational trainings locally, and taken advantage of online webinars.  All of this is focused on our amazing Wedding Industry. 

All of this is part of what it takes run a successful business and really provide the best possible experiences for our Fabuluxe Couples.   We promise to never stop learning or taking the time to be better for us and for you!

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!
