VIB '09 Review

Well, VIB '09 was a total success!! I was so happy with the soiree and everyone that was involved either as a vendor, helper or a guest made my day! I want to thank everyone that is reading this for helping to make one of my crazy dreams come true!!

First I want to mention who won the great door prizes we had:

Nearly Naughty $200 gift certificate - Jasmyn Baize

Hampton Inn free night - Angelle' Schroeder

Clinique bonus - Taylor Gulley

Dillard's champagne glasses - Erin Raymer

Bridals of Regiss Parkfree veil - Chelsea Cate

Corvette Museum Gift Certificate- Miranda Overdorf

Regina Webb Up Do and Veil Fitting- Ally Martel

2 x Lasting Impressions Gift Certificates- Beth Ann Brady & Ashley Bernard

Congratulations ladies!!

We also had two vendor prizes for the best design and they went to BGB Weddings and Royal Icing. Beautiful tables!

The day was filled with beautiful brides (and a few gracious grooms) that were able to sip on a mimosa, have some great hors d'oeuvres and visit with some of the best wedding vendors, all while listening to live music! All the brides that came through voiced that they had a great time and were able to get vendor information in a relaxed yet classy atmosphere.

Not to mention the great swag bags that we gave to each bride that was filled with goodies, including a t-shirt from Shenanigans saying "Leave the Shenanigans to me 'cause I'm the bride to be" & a brand new edition of KY Bride Magazine and so much more. The bags themselves were adorable and went perfectly with our soiree colors! They were all from Get Married and I have to admit that I snuck one for myself!

Here is my table, I incorporated the shows colors with a natural feel using branches straight from my front yard (I should say forest and anyone who has seen my yard will agree), curly willow, cat tails and green ameranthus. I added color with some super cute hanging lanterns and colored crystals that I had hanging from the branches. All around the centerpiece I had some fun arrangements with yellow, green and orange roses, green buttons, hypericum berries and yellow and orange ameranthus.

I hope all had a great day and I am so excited about some of the ideas I have planned for VIB Soiree 2010! Hope to see you there!!
