Jubilee Events Featured in Grace Ormonde Weddings Style New England Magazine!

I had the opportunity to co-design a tablescape with my colleages Tony and Cat of Datura: A Modern Garden this summer at the Ocean House for Grace Ormonde. We were sent an image of a beautiful water colored Elie Saab gown to use as inspiration– and this is what we came up with! We used a gorgeous mirrored dinning table with chargers made from floral in shades of blue, pink and green. Victoria Ghost Chairs were accentuated with white petal chair backs with rhinestone broaches. Posh Paperie created gorgeous triple mounted menu cards with a beautiful floral water color motif. Tony and Cat created this gorgeous orchid chandelier that we suspended above the table.

Pick up your latest Weddings Style New England Magazine to see the special shot they chose for inclusion in the magazine.

Oh! The Place’s You’ll Go! in 2010

{ the many exciting places we’ve gone in 2010 }

This week we’re taking restful time off to plan for the new year– and part of that is reflecting on all that we’ve done in 2010. As I look back at our incredible season, filled with so much travel, amazing collaborations, first dances, exciting adventures, new friends, and the best clients in the world– I’m reminded of all that we’ve accomplished, seen, and been part of. With such a busy year, it has been easy this week to unwind and relax.

A huge thank you to our 2010 married clients and their families– and our soon-to-be wedded clients– your year is almost here! We also must thank our incredible colleagues who worked so hard this past year to exceed expectations and produce beautiful, delicious, stunning, and memorable events.

2011 will certainly bring a whole set of new adventures and experiences– and we can’t wait to get started!

xxooo~

An Introduction…

So I’ve been working on this blog post for a while, thinking it had to be some sort of monumental event that this was my first real post. When I stepped back, I realized all of my favorite blogs are so enjoyable to read because people put their passion into words. You can read their energy and everything they love into the story they portray. The pictures, of course, assist in the excitement, but I feel like I’m living the day, not just reading about it! I’ve been with Jubilee Events now shortly more than a year. To put this experience into words is going to be contesting, but I’ll sort out all of the excitement and recapture it.

When I started off with this company, I was the intern. Like anyone, I was somewhat terrified because I wanted to impress Candice and all of her industry friends. I wanted them to see what I knew–I had found something that I loved to do and immerse myself in. Not many people are lucky enough to find that. I wanted to stay late, I wanted to do whatever I could do to help! I craved (and still do) the feelings of oncoming carpal tunnel from the endless emails sent out; I longed for the sore feet from spending hours in heels when working a ceremony and reception. I feel like a kid on Christmas morning when I’m tying ribbon, cutting and folding menus, alphabetizing escort cards, and rearranging chairs. Rereading this, I might be a bit nuts, but this is what floats my boat!

Quite frankly, I love weddings! I wanted to work more hours than existed in my day just to learn the ins and outs. I knew I had someone to model after and was learning from someone amazing, not just because she dresses so fashionably, is witty, and listens to Michael Jackson, but because she knows what she’s talking about. Candice is savvy and smart, so learning from her is a privilege! And let me tell you, the people she is friends with in this industry are AMAZING!!! I am so fortunate to know them and work with them! Even more so, I’ve been to new places with them.

Back in January, we traveled to New Orleans for a photoshoot! Whenever I hear a jazz band or watch the Saints (yes, I actually tuned into football more after this trip), I go back to the streets of NOLA and relive our shoot! In April we went to Costa Rica, which luckily enough we just returned from a few weeks ago! In April, we fought off lizards and humid driven hair–this time it was the raccoons going after any food we had and the pretty jewels Beth brought with her. They were full AND fashionable by the end of that day! Check out some behind the scenes here as well as pictures from shootsI and II! Looking at those pictures from our photoshoots, I’m reminded every time why I love this job so much. It’s not just meeting unique couples and hearing their story, but the creativity you explore and people you meet along the way.

In between all of those trips, we had weddings with some of the most beautiful couples with the coolest families and the most glamorous of days. Amanda and Brian, Allie and Jacob, Jessica and Frank, Danielle and John, Rose and David, Jill and Joseph, Saryn and David, Beth and Marco, Katherine and John, Anna and Matt, Sally and Oliver, Kelly and Paolo, Jennifer and Clark, Nichole and Tim, and Melissa and Peter–thank you for allowing me to be a part of each of your weddings. They were all so fun and so special! I wish you all every happiness and love that was present on your day!

As for now, well, I’m beyond thrilled to be able to share with all of you the weddings from 2011. I’m excited for our couples and all of the details unfolding for their day!! I hope to be able to bring you all stories about what we’re doing in between and all the great people we get the chance to work with! If this year was any indication as to what next year will bring, well then I’m waiting for the ball to drop in Times Square now! Hope everyone has a great holiday season!

XOXO

NYC Bridal Market: A Party Preview

Hi ya’ll!

I’ve just settled back into work after a whirlwind weekend that began in Rhode Island for Nichole and Tim’s wedding and ended at the New York Public Library attending The Knot’s Market Gala and 15th Anniversary Party. Fabu! I attended runway shows and showroom appointments with my fashionable friend Beth Chapman of The White Dress by the Shore and previewed collections by Modern Trousseau, Anne Barge, Judd Waddell, Amy Kruschel, Priscilla of Boston, Melissa Sweet, and many more. I can’t wait to share with you all the fashion that will be coming to The White Dress by the Shore! In the meantime, here are some photographs of us and our friendly crew at The Martha Stewart Market Party and The Knot Gala!

First up.. the super cute smile booth at the Martha Party held in their offices. LOVE this booth by smilebooth. It’s as if it was made for my ensem! On a side note… we’re not the most organized bunch. It definitely took a few tries to figure this out!

The only one picture perfect is Elisabeth!

Almost… but not quite!

perfect! from L to R: Elisabeth from BLUSH; Me!; Beth Chapman and Alicia from The White Dress by the Shore,

Carla Ten Eyck, and Tony Palmieri from Datura: A Modern Garden

The Martha Party was so fun and always well done. Yummy food, great music, nice wine and good company. Including Martha herself! Here we are meeting her. Dream.Come.True.

Here we all are with amazing designer Amy Kruschel

With the always lovely Callie of Modern Trousseau… who custom made the dress Beth was wearing! haute!

being silly!

Beth and Alicia with Marie Elena

Then we tumbled off to the Library for more festivities!

Here we all are looking pretty outside with some new friends we made in our limo! Hi ladies!

The amazing 14 foot floral sculpture by Preston Bailey which was inspired by a Monique gown. It was amazing! Made of hydrangea, roses and orchids. Sooooo pretty!
