April Weddings and More

This weekend we have been getting ready for our April weddings at the JW Marriott...

Audrie and Troy
They have been working out SUPER intense to get in great shape for their approaching April 9th wedding. We think they look GREAT! They are famous...they will be featured in an article in the San Antonio Wedding Magazine on Movie Posters. Just call them "Mr. and Mrs. Gonzalez (Smith)" We met Audrie's parents and them on Friday at the JW Marriott to go over floral/linens and food tasting. Chef Bret prepared some delicious choices for everyone to sample and choose from.
We showcased linens from BBJ linens and silver chiavari chairs from Chic Accents. They are getting married downtown at the beautiful San Fernando Cathedral, then the guests will enjoy cocktails at the JW and get ready for the dinner and dance.

Angela and Josh sporting their favorite teams! I'm on Team Angela.

Today, Angela started the day with a make-up trial with Yvette. Then, they were off to shoot their engagement session with Michelle from McGreevy-Squier. Check out her blog for some of her favorite pictures from today... www.mcgreevysquierphoto.com/blog/
Their last stop was the JW Marriott where we met them for the linen/food tasting and Candy Couture mock-up.

Both couples have decided to go with a duo on the entree. The signature filet mignon accompanied by a wonderful sea bass filet. The guests will DEFINITELY be impressed with the dinner and service at the JW.

We ended the weekend celebrating with Roque and Daniel as they announced their engagement to their family and friends. Francine did a great job of their "Fiesta" themed party with margaritas and pinatas.

Special thanks to... Matthew (BBJ linen), Steven (Chic Accents), Melody (JW Marriott), and Chef Bret!!! You guys are the best!

Christine & Joseph

Welcome Christine and Joseph to the SAWEC family.

We are off to a great start with the planning of their October ceremony to be held at Canyon Springs Golf Club with a cascading waterfall as the back drop. February has been a very busy month. The ceremony/reception venue has been selected, floral has been designed by Eloise at Seeds of Love, Groove City is going to rock at the reception, and Once Upon a Time Photography has been chosen to catch every special moment on film. Christine and Joseph want to create a moment in time they will never forget and give their guests a night to remember too.

Dr. and Mrs. David Kaiser

Nicole's Vision: Old Hollywood Glam....

Somehow, I accidentally deleted this post...Here it is again, all though not word for word, because I can not remember exactly what I wrote;)

On Saturday the 20th, Miss Nicole Gosselink married Dr. David Kaiser on the rooftop terrace of the historic St. Anthony Hotel.

Nicole and David had a number of out of town guest that they wanted to show a good time. They did just that with passed champagne rooftop before the ceremony. The ceremony was followed by cocktail out in the famous Peacock Ally, where an amazing vocalist, Tina, played the piano and sang accompanied by her equally talented son.

After the cocktail hour guest were lead into The Peraux room for dinner. Nicole's fantastic vision of Old Hollywood Glam was brought to life by fantastic centerpieces created by Melissa White at Botanika. www.botanika.com It truly was a fantastic evening!

Ivette (manager/singer of Groove City) and the owner/dance instructor of Calle Ocho

Tonight, Groove City http://www.groovecityband.com/ held an open session at Calle Ocho (Dance Studio) for bride/groom's to come hear them in action. They did a fabulous job of showcasing their variety of styles! They started the night with the most popular song on the radio...Tonight's gonna be a good night! Groove City did a mix of oldies, dance favorites. ballads, and Spanish music.

They played at Anna and Sal's December wedding and are looking forward to working with them on future weddings!
