Real Weddings: Vanessa and Ammer



Last November, I had the pleasure of working with Vanessa and Ammer. They were just an easy and great couple to work with! Their wedding was a spectacular event at the Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables, Florida. Their wedding ceremony was traditional and classic held at the infamous St. Teresa of the Little Flower in Coral Gables, Florida. I had such a great time coordinating the day of.

Their families were so much fun to work.  The wedding was a true party with the help of JC Ledon and the Miami Nights/Chakachan Band. The event decor was inspired by the colors of the fall season, which Jorge Nevot from Nevot Flowers and rentals from AB Cover Designers brought to life effortlessly.

Real Weddings: Veronica and Guillermo




I recently had the pleasure of working with an amazing couple for their wedding day! Veronica and Guillermo had a beautiful wedding Friday, May 8th at the DoubleTree Grand Hotel Downtown Miami. They were married at St. Patrick's Cathedral in Miami Beach by Father Frank.

Veronica is a great example of a DIY Bride. She is so talented with stationary, that she personally made her wedding invi
tations, table numbers, ceremony programs, favor tags, escort cards, menu cards, even her wedding cake topper!

I had a great time coordinating their wedding and being there to make sure they did not worry about a thing. They were a great couple to work with!

Aside from such a great couple, I had a great group of vendors to work with as well. From the amazing photography down to the flowers, everything was "picture perfect!" Thank you vendors!

Looking Gorgeous: Make-up Trial

I recently coordinated a dear friend's wedding at the beginning of May (post coming soon!) and I was able to have my make-up trail at the "getting ready" session. I was so excited, make-up is the one vendor I have taken the longest to book because it is so essential. Great make-up adds to great pictures.

I LOVED how Amaris Gonzalez from MAC Make-Up worked. She is very professional, talented, and is great to chat with. One of the best I have encountered in Miami. She is highly recommended by my wedding photographer Gregory Paul Photography. Her make-up really shoots well in photos!

Check it out for yourself!
