Indira & Ernesto's beautiful Deering Estate wedding!

Let me start by saying I truly love the Deering Estate. The grounds are absolutely amazing. Even with all the rules I still love working there. Indira and Ernesto's wedding was no exception. I had been looking forward to this even for almost a year.

I was a little worried at the beginning of the day because it was a little cloudy and I kept being approached about what the back up would be in the event of rain because it looked very probable. I just stayed positive and insisted it would not rain that day! About 20 minutes later....the sky was blue.

The night was perfect, not too cold.
The tables looked stunning! But they definitely did not hold a candle to the bride.

Indira and Ernesto were so happy with everything....which made me very happy :)I wrote a mini- novel in your guest book so I will let you read all my sentiments there! Just know that I love you both and thank you so much for trusting me with your day! Have a blast in Europe!

So this time around no pictures....this time around I made a video instead. This kind of occurred because out of the 200 or so pictures I took. I decided on 60. So that was too many for a post.
I put them all in a video. Please excuse the "mis-spellings" in the credits. For some reason I can figure out why it's cutting off the last letter of some words.

The song I picked took a little inspiration from the couples first dance. They danced to "Bless the Broken Road" by Rascal Flatts. So I chose another Rascal Flatts song for the video :)

Enjoy!

Monica and Anthony's Beautiful Backyard Wedding!

This is going to be a very stupid question for anyone that reads my blog but....how many of you have seen this movie?


If you have then it's probably the first thing you are going to think of as you start reading about this wedding.

Monica and Anthony were initially a destination wedding couple. That idea shortly went out the window when they opted for a wedding at her father's house.
Monica's father has a beautiful house in Coral Springs that they turned in to a beautiful reception space for the wedding.

The guests at this wedding had an amazing time. The party was going till 5am!!! and that was only because by that point the Bride & Groom were ready to go! Lol

Monica and Anthony, I had a great time at your wedding and thank you so much for letting me be a part of it! I'm sure that your lives will be filled with love and lots and lots of laughs!

Here are some pictures from the evening

Photographer Love

So I'm going to use this entry to not only give some love to a really great photographer but also introduce one of the amazing couples that won my contest.
Katie and Cody! They will be getting married in Parkland, Fl on April 11, 2009
Katie and Cody took their E-Pics with fabulous wedding and event photographer Gregory Paul.
Katie admits she never thought she could look that good but come on....they are a hot couple and these pictures are just that!
Gregory Paul definitely has a unique style that sets him apart from the rest. I love finding photographers that have a unique way of interpreting emotion and detail through photo. I 'm happy to say that I will have the pleasure of working with Greg & Heidi on a couple of events next year. I can't wait to see all fabulous pictures!

Check out Katie and Cody's engagement pictures!

Danielle & Nick and their beautiful but windy beach ceremony :)

Ceremony: 9th Street Boardwalk, Deerfield Beach


So this event was a little different and it might help give some insight in to what we here at Fabulous Fêtes are able to do for you :)

Danielle and Nick hired me basically to coordinate and set up their beach ceremony. Their reception venue already had a coordinator and they just needed someone to over see the rehearsal and set up all the details they wanted for their beautiful ceremony.

The ceremony was held at the 9th Street Boardwalk in Deerfield Beach. Living in Miami I would just like to say that the beaches in Deerfield are amazing! The water was the bluest blue and the sand was a perfect tan color and sooo soft. The rock formations on the beach looked like something you'd see in California. It was gorgeous. The 9th Street Boardwalk basically give you a wonderful overlook on all of it. It was an amazing spot. You'll see from the pictures below.

Danielle and Nick, thank you so much for letting me be a part of a part of your special day :) Seeing you laugh and be with your families shows how happy I'm sure you two will be together for many many years to come!
