I'm always looking for gifts for clients for special occasions - birthday, anniversary, etc.  I came upon Sugarfina's website and these I love these cute Bento boxes. Everything from sugar to spice, you get to mix and match your favorite candies to personalize the gift. And, check out that pretty blue packaging.  Check out their website for more options from Champagne gummy bears to the Martini Olive almonds.

Wedding Cake to Go!

Wedding cake to go. Oh how I love this idea from Cacee Cobb and Donald Faison's wedding. The couple created individual wedding cakes in jars that also served as escort cards. I have always said that edible favors are the best kind of favor. At the end of the night, if there is left over cake it is always difficult to bag or box, so this no mess solution is wonderful!

My First Wedding - A Wedding Coordinator's Story

It is hard to believe that almost seven years ago, I started my first wedding planning company and on June 3, 2006, I coordinated my first pro wedding. It was just me and my assistant Samera. Funny, how things come full circle - again it is just me and Samera. Looking back at these pictures I can definitely see all of my details and ideas in full bloom. From the very start, I wanted to create a company that would offer clients great memories that would last a lifetime. Believe it or not, the wedding was perfect, especially if you don't count the part where I forgot to send the uncle down the aisle to light the memorial candle. No worries, the bride and uncle lit the memorial candle later - just the two of them. I love it when a plan comes together, even a Plan B.
