Drum roll please....

We are SOO THRILLED to announce that Ian Prosser was voted as Event Solutions Designer of the Year!!

We are all so happy and proud of Ian - he is such a deserving person! We'd like to thank all of our friends, clients and family members who helped spread the word and VOTED! We cannot thank everyone enough!

A huge congratulations as well for our friend, Alexis Machin of conceptBAIT for being voted as the Event Solutions "Rising Star".

At the event in Las Vegas, we were so happy to have so many friends from Tampa present and of course it's always wonderful to have Tampa represented at these national awards. There were almost NINE finalists in multiple categories from the Tampa area, which we think says quite a lot of our always growing community - the talent here is just amazing!

Viva Las Vegas!

We are so excited about this coming Sunday as we FINALLY head to Las Vegas for the Event Solutions Conference and Spotlight Event Awards. Monday evening is when we find the results from the 'Designer of the Year' award! Our fingers our crossed for our very own, Ian Prosser. Win or Lose, we are so proud and honored to have Ian as one of only nine National finalists!!

We'll also be rooting for several of our friends in the industry as they too make the trip out to Vegas for the awards! Congratulations to all of the finalists!!!

Orlando Bridal Show Tomorrow!!!

Come out and enjoy this fabulous Bridal Show and say hello to Ian and Brittany!!

The Ringling Courtyard and Michael's on East Wedding Sneak Peek!

On January 2nd, we had the pleasure of being a part of a beautiful wedding. As all Floridians know, these past couple weeks we've been faced with unseasonably cold weather. A wonderful change from the heat, but when we have weddings outside, we always hope for flawless weather.

In this instance, the Bride and Groom had a fabulous wedding planner, Nicole Kaney from NK Productions who helped them make the decision to change venues and move their reception in doors.

They kept their ceremony at the stunning Ringling Courtyard in Sarasota and moved their reception to Michael's on East's Ballroom.

Their ceremony was beautiful keeping with the traditional and always a favorite, all white.

The reception was a combination of different shades of coral flowers consisting of amaryllis, tulips, roses, ranunculus and tuberous heather.

Below is a sneak peek of some amazing photos from the always wonderful, Damon Tucci!

Happy New Year!

We started off the New Year (or really New Year's Eve) with a spectacular wedding! There is nothing we love more than working with fabulous clients and then on top of that add in amazing vendors, and you really can't go wrong!

Below is a sneak peek image from the ceremony from the wonderful Garrett Nudd and a snippet of the couple's wedding video from the talented Jeffrey Stoner.






We were thrilled to be a part of this wedding. Not only did we create the all of the floral decor, but we also facilitated all of the lighting and the big surprise for the bride, a snow machine! This completed her winter wonderland look as she and her new husband had their first dance!

A MAJOR kudos to all of the vendors involved including the guys mentioned above, The Ritz Carlton Sarasota and last but certainly not the least, the fabulous ladies of E-Events - Lisa, Nancy and Jessy for making the day flawless!
