Nicole, our Decor designer, outdid herself for Saturdays wedding reception- this does not come close to doing it justice.

“I’ve completely changed my mind on my hairstyle since the trial and we’re switching it up”

I hear this on wedding day ALL the time and I am completely okay with it!

Most often the switch is going from a half up style, to putting all the hair up because we’re worried about sweating and heat.

Weather, personal body temps, annoyance of having hair down and in the way, and worried about curls holding are the most common reasons people change their hairstyles but I always come prepared for anything💁🏼‍♀️

This doesn’t mean trials are a total waste! Trials are important to get to know your artist, see what they’re capable of, and build the trust. Plus maybe you wouldn’t have known you wanted a change if you hadn’t tried your original hairstyle!

Keeping ticket prices at $5 today for the music festival, since the weather ruined our outdoor plans.

Reminder: Check in and Live Music will be in our WEST room today for the Music Festival. Please follow the signs.

So! There are SO many great things that happen in the West: Sam Elliott in Western movies. ❤️. Southwest food is some of the best on the planet. Into cacti? Yup that’s western. TOMORROW Sounds of The Summit City Music Festival will be in our West Room too- WHY? Because the equipment our talented professionals use to bring you your auditory entertainment is precious and 68% chance of rain? Too risky.
You’d get bored (you know it’s true) waiting for them to tear down outside then re-set indoors. So it’s for them AND for you- indoors it is. We have air conditioning. No portable toilets (always a plus!) and .at.the.charles for your local cider and meads or for full bar service. Food trucks still on board but MOST IMPORTANTLY? will distract you from a rainy Sunday. You can SHOP too! 17 vendors in the EAST room.
