George West...lovely town

Burrrrrr today was very chilly. We (Teresa and me) drove down to George West to meet with one of our beautiful brides Taylor and her wonderful mother Jamye. Aztec Rentals met us at the Majestic Oaks to go over the different layouts we can use for the wedding. This is so exciting and I'm really starting to paint the picture of Taylor and Cameron's summer wedding in my mind.

I have to say this city girl is REALLY starting to like this small town. Everyone is sooooo nice! We had lunch a local restaurant that was full of happy patrons. Saying hello is just a friendly habit that everyone has and holding doors is tradition.

I do have to say I always feel at home there. :) Next week, we will be off to the food tastings

I haven't had the chance to introduce you my friend, "Don-key".

This week...

This week has flown by...all the weddings are definitely keeping busy.

We met with Theresa to go over decor at the Weston Centre where she will having her dream wedding. We are off to Austin tomorrow on a dress mission. We are visiting one of our favorite dress shops Alexia Gavela www.agbride.com . Jerry the owner/dress consultant is an angel and has helped some of our brides find their perfect dress.

Looks like we have a good candidate for their photographer. Theresa and Rich want someone to tell the story of their beautiful day as it unfolds.

Rio Plaza-Theresa and Rich

Today, was a beautiful day to make our way down to the Rio Plaza and have lunch at Rita's on the River. www.ritasontheriver.com

Theresa, Richard, and Richard/Pat (Richard's parents) met me at Rita's to have lunch and discuss the rehearsal dinner. His parents were wonderful and they can't wait to see Richard and Theresa spend the rest of their lives together. I can definitely tell where Rich gets his sweetness and down to earth personality from.

The food was what you picture good ole' San Antonio traditional Tex-Mex food. We sampled chicken and cheese quesdillas, jalpaneo popper, chile con queso...yummy. Entrees we tried the cheese enchiladas, and their sizzling hot and juicy chicken and beef fajitas. Can you believe we saved room for dessert? They serve a variety of tasty desserts to satisfy any sweet tooth. Our favorite was the...fried ice cream served in a cinnamon bunelo with chocolate drizzled on the top!!! They are going to make mini versions for the dinner rehearsal...too cute.

I want send a special THANKS to Traci Burton, Sales Manager of Rita's (BEST service EVER). She has perfected her skills as a sales manager, event coordinator, jill of all trades, has all the answers to any questions you could possibly think of.

Taylor and Cameron

Love was definitely in the air... Yesterday, we met Taylor, Cameron, and mom (Jamye) at Elms Bakery to taste their delicious homemade vanilla cake with buttercream icings. Cameron was excited and SUPRISED to find out his groom's cake was going to be 3-D greyhound! They are the sweetest couple...totally down to earth.
Then, we were off to Seeds of Love to go over Floral. Taylor is so classic and is going to absolutely breath-taking with her beautiful gown and white cascading bouquet.
This is going to be a romantic fairy-tale wedding to remember!
