Merry Monday: Reviews

For this Merry Monday we wanted to share with you a message we received from a mother and daughter thanking us for the  wedding the week before.... here are a few excerpts from the brides thank you:

"Thank you so much for all of your hard work in preparation and implementation of our wedding last weekend!  We've spent the week recovering and reliving our favorite memories, which we will cherish for the rest of our lives.....

Cher -- thank you especially for all of the beautiful floral arrangements!  They were even better than we had hoped!  All of the decorations -- from the up-lit columns to the candles on the stairs -- really set the mood for our reception perfectly.  Thank you.

We loved working with you and your whole team and would recommend the service and experience to anyone!  Thanks again for making our wedding so wonderful and memorable!"


Our team loves what we do and notes like these make it that much better. So thankful for a team that goes the extra mile on every detail and all of our brides and grooms that we have been apart of their special day, so honored that you have chosen us! 


Merry Monday!

Wedding Wednesday: Zuercher May 19, 2012

The dessert sunset was the perfect backdrop for this very special destination wedding we were honored to be part of... Planning ahead was key and constructing a strategy to work with 107 degree temps was a must!

We shipped 10 boxes a week in advance with some gorgeous pieces from our unique specialty rental collection.
A trio of looks blended together creating this gorgeous atmosphere and intimate setting overlooking the Valley from the couples private residence in prestigious Scottsdale, Arizona.
All papery was perfectly coordinated with the modern, sorbet color palette and designed by the sweet heart shout out
Juliet garden roses were a must! afterall, the brides name is.... Juliet!
We adored the photographer that was so perfectly matched to the brides style. Kacey Luvi Photography captured these images that took our breath away!



Catering and Cake provided by Fresh from the Kitchen.
Merry Me designed the fresh floral and provided the pretty cake plate stand and bling to the delicious confection

We lined up some of the best vendors around... Classic Party Rentals Phoenix was one of them.

 Our very special bride was adorned in a 'sherbet' colored gown and a stunning hair piece, custom designed by Suellen Miller designs


Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Taylor!

Merry Monday: Black & White Stripes

Black and White stripes are everywhere, narrow or wide the classic statement they make never goes unnoticed. Either as the backdrop or the finest detail, black and white is hot and now, and we are dying to design with it! Here are just a few ideas we fell in love with and got our minds stirring! 

Love the black and white stripe menu card on the polka dot plate, accented in gold, this screams glam in all the right ways!

Love the black and white tablecloth as the canvas for this beautiful table setting, the possibilities are endless!

What a great way to tie the groom in with a black and white stripe bow tie!! 


Merry Monday!

Merry Monday: Surprise Wedding

A few weeks ago while watching the season finale of HBO's new show Girls (spoiler alert, if you have not seen it) Jessa, the free spirit of the group, invites everyone to the "party of the year." As guests enjoyed champagne, music starts and a man begins the ceremony.... that's when party turned into a wedding! While most girls love telling and sharing ideas about their upcoming nuptials, this takes a completely different approach and catches everyone off guard for a spontaneous wedding.... and we LOVE it!!





Mark Zuckerberg's surprise wedding to Priscilla Chan took place just  earlier this year, is this a trend we can look forward to? Might be a reason to get a little more dressed up next time we are invited to a "party," let's hope so!!!

Merry Monday!
