Bridal Capes

I have a love/hate relationship with the word trend. If it is a trend that means everyone is doing it right?! But there are certain trends I fall in love with and must do at a wedding one day.

A Fall Wedding at Red Rock Country Club

I stepped into the wedding planning process with Courtney and Robby way late into the game, but it was love at first sight when I met Courtney! They chose Red Rock Country Club and a great team of wedding professionals to assist in executing their big day! With Robby and Courtney both being in the nightclub industry, we knew this would be a party! 

I Am One

It hit me. I received a notice to renew my business license and just like that, I happily survived my first year of owning Green Orchid Events.

Courtney and Robby: Engagement Session for their fall wedding

Summer Wedding Hair and Makeup Tips with Lori J White

As I was sweating my face off the other day, I dreamed of dunking my head into a tub of foundation to make me look like a normal person again !

Karen and Joseph: 25 Year Vow Renewal

You might remember Karen and Joseph from a past blog post sharing their insight on how they successfully made it to 25 years of marriage. For a refresher, Karen and Joseph were married 25 years ago in their military uniforms in a very casual setting.

I always love hearing the stories of how couples get together and what it is that brought us to this day....their wedding day!

Kimberly and Timothy's Engagement Session

Kimberly and Tim will be saying "I Do!" in September at St. Bridget Catholic Church. The couple has chosen One Six Sky Lounge in Eastside Cannery for their reception venue. If you haven't see this place yet, you must! Their wedding team is coming together nicely and we will be working with some fun companies such as All Events Production, Joy Squad, and Something New Films. Thank you Kimberly Potter F Photography for sharing these images! We can't wait to work with you on their big day!

Michelle and Jaime at VG Strip

Michelle and Jaime reached out to us with only a few months to plan their wedding. With only the church booked, we got to work quickly to find the ideal venue for their reception and to put together their team of wedding professionals. Since they're both Mexican, we had originally planned on a Mexican style wedding reception with bold colors. They then decided on a rehearsal dinner at Latin influenced Bar + Bistro. This is where they chose to add their Mexican flair. With the reception being held at VG Strip, Michelle decided that it was more appropriate to go with a different feel. She chose a gray and white color scheme with plenty of candles and a very romantic look. Gardenias are important to her so we incorporated gardenias into her wedding design as well as white stock, hydrangea, and a few others. We kept a few Mexican touches with a Mexican candy station. The cocktail pieces were also margarita inspired with a rock salt and lime base and a gerber daisy on top.

Enjoy their beautiful wedding photos. Congratulations to Michelle and Jaime!
