On December 17th, we did a wedding at The Duncan House (www.theduncanhouse.com) in Tavares, Florida and it was fabulous! April arrived on a boat with her dad and Tristan, as well as the guests, had no idea she was doing that.

The ceremony took place in the back of the house and then guests were invited to go in the front to enjoy cocktail hour. During that time, Tina, Holly and myself had to turn it all around into a reception site for 220 guests! It was a lot of work but totally worth the look!

The food was wonderful, the cake melted in your mouth and as always the dj (Steve from Power Entertainment - www.powerentertainmentdj.com) had the party rocking!

At the end of the night as April and Tristan exited and the guests lined up with sparklers, Tristan handed April a set of keys to a brand new Land Rover that he bought for her! What a way to end the night.

My husband, John, and I took the kids out to Animal Kingdom and Magic Kingdom yesterday and then stayed out at All-Star Movie Resort. We had a blast and I'm so glad we went at a slow time! :) The lines were short and that makes for a fun day! I actually cried at the end of the night when the fireworks went off and my son, David, was in my arms and we were cheek to cheek. I thought, "It is magical!"

I am so excited to announce some new packages to my future brides and grooms. I am offering two smaller packages in hopes that I can reach out to more people. If it's one thing I've learned over the years, it's that every bride is different!

Anyway, the first package is for the brides and grooms that need most of their help with the ceremony. You can have one coordinator at your rehearsal, to make sure everyone understands their role and things run smoothly. And then she will be at the ceremony and will go to your reception site and make sure everything is all set to go and will work with the dj/band to get your bridal party introduced and into the reception.

The second package has the coordinator staying through the reception, until the cake cutting is complete. She will attend your final meeting at your venue location and handle set up before the reception (favors, signature book, gift table, etc.) and before departing will load your wedding gifts into the designated car.

I feel this is a great thing for brides who are getting married at locations where they don't offer someone to help for the ceremony or those brides who just want peace of mind that everything is taken care of just the way they want it to be!

These packages will start at $500! Feel free to contact me if you are interested in learning more about it!
