Wedding Soiree Exclusive - W.P. Miller

post from Wedding Soiree on 29 May 2011 10:15:00 PM. © Wedding Soiree

Celebrity event planner, "WP" William P. Miller sent over these behind the scenes images from Niecy Nash's bridal shower. The colors are as vibrant as Niecy's personality - deep purple, vibrant green and fushia linens - simply stunning. WP said the colors for the wedding were lavender so he chose an eggplant color and green to incorporate the garden theme. The 40 ladies that attended the shower were treated to massages, beauty touch ups and front-row seats to a spectular fashion show in lieu of bridal shower games.

Niecy?s bridal shower was held at the Lawson?s Hancock Park community in Los Angeles. The private estate was built in 1916 and is locally known as the "Ali Mansion" (formerly home of Muhammad Ali). Big Hats and Killer Heels were a must for shower guests including Sheryl Lee Ralph, Sherri Shepherd, Kim Coles, Eva Marcille, Shawn Robinson, Holly Robinson Peete, Kym Whitley and Kimberly Locke - the ladies looked stunning.

According to his website "W.P. Miller?s sense of style, fashion and etiquette has placed him among the higher echelon of special event producers and wedding planners worldwide. His versatility and creativity enables him to organize a variety of social gatherings ranging from intimate receptions, fund-raising galas, corporate meetings and lavish weddings." William regularly appeared on The Style Network's hit television shows Whose Wedding Is It Anyway? and Married Away.
We ask everyone to finish this sentence: On your wedding day....plan to have fun!

Real Wedding Angelique and Dominic @DonCesar
Resort

post from A Loving Unity Wedding Officiant! 727-532-6186 www.LovingUnity.com on 29 May 2011 06:09:48 PM. © A Loving Unity Wedding Officiant! 727-532-6186 www.LovingUnity.com

Can you believe at 10am this morning for the wedding of Angelique and Dominic at the Don Cesar that it was already pushing 90 degrees?? I am so glad we had that slight ocean breeze! Angelique was escorted in by her mom, and was greeted at the end of the Aisle by Dominic, her soulmate. The colors chosen for the bridesmaids, junior bridesmaids, moms and flowers were the most magnificent shades of purple! There were 3 flower girls, one ring bearer, a junior bridesmaid and 2 bridesmaids. Dominic was escorted in by his grandmother Edna with his mom Debra and Gordon following. He took his placed next to the best man and the two groomsmen.

Although the weather was hot, the bride kept calm and cool and they shared their beautiful vows with each other. At the ring exchange, the couple also placed the engagement ring back on her finger as a sign that the promise and intention had been fulfilled and a new promise and intention was being made today with the stating of their wedding vows.

After their custom wedding ceremony, the entire wedding party and guests went to the courtyard for a group shot. I am including a few candids of the flower girls and ring bearer with the bride.

After the ceremony the couple and their immediate family will be celebrating on a cruise leaving out of Tampa this afternoon! BonVoyage! Congratulations Angelique and Dominique. May you be blessed with a long and happy life full of love and abundance.

The professionals I enjoyed working with on this wedding were:

The staff of the DonCesar, in particular the catering sales manager and the on beach sound technician.

The First Look

post from Wedding Soiree on 29 May 2011 01:13:00 PM. © Wedding Soiree

The first look before the wedding allows the couple to have a few private moments together before they become husband and wife (with the photography). The pictures below by Mastin Studio show the intimate moments. Is it bad luck to see the bride before the wedding? We say NO! Rules are made to be broken and it frees up time after the I DOs for the couple to enjoy their cocktail hour with family and friends. This is a trend that we think will continue.

ANNETTE AND PAUL: summer fireflies on the lake

As you may know, Irish couples are known to be very friendly and loving. Looking at Paul?s and Annette?s wedding, we can only agree with it.

They decided to hold their ceremony in a warm Mediterranean summer in a very special location of Villa Cortine. This is an ancient villa located near the center of little town of Sirmione, a delightful Italian spot, famous for its peculiarity. It is situated in the middle of Lake Garda!
Sirmione and its surroundings is just the perfect scenario to enjoy medieval Italian culture, craftsmanship and fashion habits while filling eyes of nature?s beauty and without having to worry about noise and cars.

Villa Cortine sits upon the hill in the heart of such stunning peninsula, which was rendered immortal by the lyrics of Roman poet Catullo, and dominates the entire basin of Lake Garda.
A centennial park of rare essences and fragrant bushes surround the neo classic style villa built in 1870 by an Austrian nobleman Kurt von Koseritz, officer of art and Italian culture.
The wide park is embellished with nine different fountains and a main one, called Neptune. It greets guests at their entrance just wonderful! At the far end guests can either enjoy Lake Garda?s clear waters or sun bath on the pier of the villa. But Paul and Annette chose this venue also for the superb frescoes and interiors of the palace were precious marbles, byzantine stuccoes and polychromatic decor executed by Brera Academy revive the splendour of the past and delights adults and child.

This beautiful setting is the backdrop to the emotion of the preparations enhanced by a love message from the groom to the bride.

Very lucky indeed was their little daughter that could fill her young eyes with the finest Italian art. She was a very pretty little valet of the wedding, much in tone with the elegant sobriety of the location, her silky dress matching the interiors of the villa.

For Irish family this is still a very important institution and in Paul and Annette photos we can see a tender love emanating between the couple and their daughter, who was actively involved in the preparation of her parents? wedding.

Ceremony started: a symbolic gathering was prepared in the huge park of the villa. The blooming garden, the typical bright blue sky of Italian summers and the light dresses made the participants of the event appear like light butterflies sharing a moment of grace. Paul?s and Annette?s vows were pronounced in a dream like setting, and this memory will be the most treasured of all.

Quite a peculiarity was the high number of best men and maids of honor! Guys looked very formal in their white shirts and creamy trousers?

But? could not resist and show off a pair of crazy socks whit the word CRIMINAL knitted on them! Worn also by the groom himself!

The lovely girls instead could show off loose white dresses that let shoulders by kissed by the lovely Italian sun, with full attention, they watched the ceremony while fluttering their lacy fans in this warm Italian summer day.

As a further statement of their love, they crossed their cricket bats to symbolize their union and took a picture of it. In fact both Paul and Annette are cricket players and estimators. May their love have sprung from cricket grounds?

After the ultimate yes, the tension is loosened and gave way to joy and fun.

And then guests awaited in the hall of the villa the married couple to wish them good luck and start the celebration.

When the dancing started the most happy of all was Paul?s and Annette?s daughter that delightfully could start swirling at the centre of the hall together with her mum in the most perfect Irish dancing tradition! And with all that space available, we are sure they had all the fun that a day like this deserves.

We agree with the young lady in the last photo that Paul?s and Annette?s wedding was really a fine one, the kind that every couple deserves in their most important day!

A very special thank goes to Photo27, official photographers of the event how did a great job! All details and special moments of the day will remain forever in their special pictures. We are sure Annette and Paul loved their service as we also did!

And finally… Our best wishes to this wonderful couple!
