Make sure you have a wide variety of spirits at your bar so all of your guests can find something they like.
We recommend having at least one vodka, one rum and one tequila - don't forget about your margaritas!
What is your cocktail of choice?
We hear of this "no chocolate wedding cake" nonsense and are appalled. If you want chocolate cake then you should have chocolate cake. Period!
Pastry chefs are talented artists and are able to “disguise” whatever flavors you have on the inside with the design on the outside. So go ahead, choose your favorite cake flavor and eat it too.
What is your favorite cake flavor?

Helping others has always been a important foundation in my life both personally and professionally.
Therefore, when I was asked to play the part of a Wish Upon a Wedding ambassador to assist a bride with a terminal illness, I had no hesitations. The experience was moving, an honor, and something I will always remember.
Thank you Martha Stewart Weddings for bringing awareness to such an amazing organization.
Thank you Wish Upon a Wedding for hosting another wonderful fundraiser that brought so many people together to support such a beautiful cause. It's always an honor to be on the guest list.
Until next year!
The nonprofit grants weddings for people with life-altering circumstances.
Reinvented. The Photo Booth 2.0
No matter the celebration, guest love to let their hair down and show off in front of the camera. Add a customized backdrop to coordinate with your event theme and you've a great way to entertain guests and capture memories all at the same time.
Fluorescent lights pulsed, flickered, and reflected off the night’s most sparkly fashion.
Fantastic floral staircases, repurposed fashions and maybe a glimpse of a VIP or two (if you're into celebrity watching). Here's a rare behind the scenes look at one of the chicest fundraisers of the year.
From cocktail hour with the Jenners and the siblings Smith to Beyoncés arrival time, it’s your ticket inside the most exclusive party of the year.
I think this is a brilliant idea! Don't you?

Because fashun.
True story.
Often movies about wedding and event planning are a comedy, romance or a romantic comedy. This leads the outside world to glamorize and simplify what it is to be a professional event planner.
Gone is the hot love interest, flamboyant planner and crazed parents for dramatic effect. First Monday in May is a documentary that unveils what Pinterest dosen’t. All the work it really takes to produce a successful event!
Have a front row seat to the party of the year.
SNEAK PEAK!
A rare behinds the scenes look at some of the stunning Oscar parties Sunday night. Events with fabulous food and astonishing decor are not solely limited to weddings. It's all about being creative and producing unique event designs.
How unique are your wedding plans?
Academy governor Jeffrey Kurland worked with longtime producer Cheryl Cecchetto and Sequoia Productions to produce and design the Governors Ball, which drew 1,500 invited guests to a room that was decorated in a blush-colored palette.
News broke about this on late Friday and has a lot of industry professionals are extremely upset. A colleague's blog explains how in the world of weddings several claim to be consultants and or planners but very few truly fit the bill. The problem? Not all are not equal.
This isn’t the first time this has happened. First it was the reception venues, “And you’ll work with our wedding planner to handle all of your details.” And the little church lady, “Schedule your rehearsal with our wedding coordinator.” Barnes and Noble offers dozens of wedding planners... in paper…

6 Simple Ways to Plan a Stress-free Wedding, Save Money and Get Rid of Your Wedding Worries for Good!
Tell me, is wedding planning driving you crazy? http://goo.gl/vz3hK9 Are you overwhelmed with the massive amounts of vendor choices, moving parts and details, details, details to cover?!
I've receive so many emails with the subject "AHHHH, I GIVE UP!" or "UGH, WHHHHY ME" that I came up with a solution. I know what it's like, I feel your pain and I'm here to help. Stay tuned...
The telltale signs that wedding-planning is driving you over the edge.
One of my brides shared this article with me. We were discussing the importance of designing a wedding that reflect a couple's creativity, uniqueness and personalities. I love Pinterest but don't you get tired of looking at the same weddings duplicated over and over again on blogs?
We are unique and our celebrations should be too. Let's dare to be different in 2016!
Hint: It doesn’t have anything to do with a trendy gown, expensive cake, or splashy location.
My first #FBF of 2016 is on a bitter sweet note:
In 2010 I collaborated with an fun, spirited and fabulously unique couple to plan a wedding of their dreams. Old Hollywood, glamour, sophistication and celebrating in a big way was the theme for “Thirteen Years in the Making” A New Years Even Wedding on December 31, 2010.
I was devastated to learn Frank passed away suddenly from cancer on December 24, 2015, just one week before his 5 year wedding anniversary. Frank was warm, energetic and had a larger that life spirit. He was the only groom I’d ever witnessed who shook hands, kissed and hugged his guests as he processed down the aisle. It was priceless!
Witnessing Frank and Colleen fall even deeper in love on their wedding night was something I will always remember. Many are confused but you see the most important things at a wedding aren’t the flowers, music, lighting or midnight balloon drops. It’s being sounded by the ones you love and those who love you.
So for all those who were able to ring in the new year with a loved one count your blessings and never take a moment for granted. I ask you to make it a goal to celebrate life in some way, however small, every day. For tomorrow is not always promised but it's those special moments will last forever in your heart.
I will miss you dearly and dedicate every celebration I plan in 2016 to you Frank.

Another stunning ring while engagement season is in full swing!
What's that you say? You didn't know there was a season for wedding engagements. Ah yes, November-February are the most popular months to pop the question. In fact, 17% of engagements happen on the same 10 days each year and nearly 40% of engagements occur between November and February. The top ten most popular dates include major holidays such as Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Years’ Day, and Valentine’s Day.
What month did you get engaged?
It's hard to decide which is more surprising, Eva Longoria's announcement that she's engaged or the ring fiancé, Jose Antonio Baston, chose to propose to her with!...
Still looking for that perfect dress design with a little something special? Well, today marks one of my favorite times of the year, NYC Bridal Fashion Week! Lovely lace, sparkling sequin and trails of tulle. Will be flowing over the street of Manhattan this weekend. I'm beyond excited to be shopping for my brides. Cause where else will you be able to find the perfect dress that reflects your personal style if you dare to be different.
I love this bride for asking, and I love grandma even more for saying yes! Just goes to show there are no hard and fast rules when planning your wedding your way.
You're never too old to be a bridesmaid -- just ask bride Christine Quinn's 89-year-old grandma Betty Govern, a.k.a. Nana Betty. At Christine's May 2 wedding to Patrick Quinn (coincidentally the couple
Obsessive pinning, texting vendors at midnight, cornering strangers at Starbucks? Don’t turn planning your wedding into a horror movie and have everyone for the hills. Get a grip on yourself and check to see if you show the signs of being a modern day bridezilla. http://goo.gl/Qn1QmI
Avoid making a mountain out of a molehill! Here are some ways brides turn themselves into the most unpopular bell of the ball and become known, in certain circles, as a modern day bridezilla.
