Open House at The Hidden Jewel in Blue Ridge

There's no other way to say it.....2020 is off to a rocky start! January and February were fabulous months for everything, and then in March the bottom dropped out due to Covid-19 and everything got put on hold. I've personally been self-quarantined at home for 31 days now and we still have another month to go. Things are looking up though, and we're staying strong and continuing to plan our events that will take place once this crazy pandemic has blown over.

In the meantime, we're reflecting on some of the wonderful events and vendors from January and February! We were asked to participate in an open house at a beautiful new venue in Blue Ridge called The Hidden Jewel on February 23rd. It was an absolutely fabulous event with over 300 attendees and so many wonderful vendors participating! There was a ribbon cutting ceremony with the chamber of commerce, tons of amazing food and beverages, beautiful décor displays for a styled shoot, and all the vendors you would need to plan any fabulous wedding or event.


I highly suggest contacting JC and Michele at The Hidden Jewel to schedule a tour once the world opens back up for business! This is a stunning new venue with an amazing group of folks who own and run the place. I can't explain how thrilled I am to have met them and to have the opportunity to continue to work with them!



























Thanks to these amazing participating vendors!

Glamorous Barn Fall Styled Shoot with a White Horse!

I had the privilege to work with Lucero Cervantes Photography on her styled shoot at Sparrow Creek Ranch last week and it turned out absolutely majestic! The white horse was regal and magical, and the details provided by the talented vendors were just stunning! Here's a sneak peek at my behind the scenes shots. Lucero's final images will blow you away when we're able to post! It was an amazing day and I am so honored to have been a part of it!

#WeddingWednesday :: Tips for a Fall Wedding

Fall is my absolute favorite time of year! I chose October and the rich tones of fall for my own wedding! Pumpkins are a fall staple, they're readily available just about anywhere, and they can make for some beautiful decorations! I always suggest sticking with what's available in the fall, including pumpkins and gourds.

Certain blooms are in season during fall months. Using these will keep your floral costs down. The color palette available is amazing, so embrace the rich colors and go with the golds, reds, oranges, browns and yellows that are abundant in the autumn months!

Fall could bring chilly weather, so be sure you have something planned to keep your guests warm. Throw blankets for guests is a good idea, sweaters or pashminas for the 'maids and moms, and you could even offer a hot cocoa, coffee, tea, and/or hot cider station. Warm beverages take care of a chill quickly! Mobile espresso bars are available whether your event is indoors or outdoors!

Fall desserts - apple & pumpkin pies, caramel apples, smores by the fire....get creative with desserts for your guests and show them a true taste of fall! There are so many options available to choose from...it's such a hard decision, I'd have to have them all. :)

Open House at Sparrow Creek Ranch

Sparrow Creek Ranch hosted their first open house last weekend and it was a wonderful success! I was completely proud to be chosen as the planner/coordinator for the event! Myself, along with 18 fabulous vendors, put together an amazing day filled with beautiful, delicious, and entertaining things for brides to experience! Guests attended from all over DFW, both east and west, and even farther...we had visitors from as far as Las Vegas!






SCR is a rustic chic barn located an hour west of Fort Worth in Graham, Texas. It was built by hand with love by Kevin Fullerton. He spent evenings building it for 6 months in preparation for his daughter Kalli's wedding. It was a labor of love, and it's an incredible story! The special touches he included are priceless! Contact SCR for a tour and a first hand look at the amazing details that make this venue!

The day included some amazing touches by everyone involved! The Mini-Barn is available at SCR (also lovingly made by Kevin). We used it as a champagne bar where guests could pick up a mimosa on their way in! We organized a strolling fashion show along with two mock ceremonies and mock reception tables....and since everything was already set for the day, our photographers shot some "styled shoots" of the fashion show models in the incredible mock setups! On top of all the fun things going on, we gave away 15 prizes! Click here to see a collection of the open house photos from all of our wonderful photographers and vendors!

Thank you to each and every vendor who put their time and effort into making this day amazing for our guests, and thank you to each couple who attended with friends and family to enjoy the event!
