Whenever I am planning a wedding with a bride, we almost always get really close! You can't help but go through such an exciting and intimate time together and not feel really connected! And then the wedding ends, the bride & groom go on their honeymoon, and they begin their Happily Ever After . I miss my brides but feel happy that I have done my part in getting their marriage started on the right foot! But that's what also makes it so special when I hear back from a bride after a few years. I reached out to Traci, this beautiful bride who got married at Casa del Mar a few years ago, to say Happy Birthday to her on Facebook, and got this sweet message back. I'm so happy for her & her growing family! Hi Katie! I think about you often. :) Our wedding literately was one of the most amazing times in my life. And I'm so thankful and grateful for you because without your guidance and experience it wouldn't have been the amazing time it was! As you ca...

BRIDE & GROOM: Molly & Trey REHEARSAL DINNER DATE: May 21, 2010 REHEARSAL DINNER LOCATION: La Panga Restaurant, Cabo San Lucas GUEST COUNT: 36 guests AN AUTHENTIC MEXICAN DINNER EXPERIENCE: Molly & Trey wanted an authentic yet private area for their Mexican themed Rehearsal Dinner. La Panga is the perfect choice. The 2nd floor balcony was private for their group, while downstairs the restaurant was able to seat their usual guests. REHEARSAL DINNER COORDINATION: OK, that's me, directing the event, as usual. Yes, coordination for your Rehearsal Dinner is included in my Wedding Coordination fees. And La Panga is one of my top recommendations. The location is perfect for a "night on the town" (at Squid Roe or Mandala or Cabo Wabo) after your dinner. ENTERTAINMENT: Don't forget to add musical entertainment to your Rehearsal Dinner. (You would never have a wedding without music; the same applies to your Rehearsal Dinner.) BEVERAGES: A good mojito is hard...

I raved about this wedding in an earlier blog, just after I returned from coordinating Heather & Alan's wedding. Now, I have received the photos, and I am so excited to share them! (It takes about 3 weeks to receive the photos from the photographer, Manuel Burgoin , and they look incredible.) Meet Heather, the bride...she is truly model material and she had a special glow about her that day. And here is Alan, her true love: Together, they are a magical match made in heaven. (I know, cliche, but true!) Heather did her pre-ceremony photography at her father's home in Cabo The bridesmaids & bride processed down a very long rock staircase that was spectacular, lending itself to these gorgeous pictures. Heather & Alan's ceremony was officiated by Heather's step-dad, which is a great way to have a very intimate, funny & special ceremony. Who else knows you both better, and can truly share what your love is about, than someone in your family? The reception was...
