Destination Traci Romano Events




What was our most popular item this week? Carmen - this stunning dress by Saeyoung Vu Couture. It is simply gorgeous and looks great on everyone who tries it on. For one of our clients we have styled it with a gorgeous wide ribbon around the waist. We designed two ribbons one in a very muted champagne shade for the ceremony and the other a thinner midnight black velvet for the reception.

Our studio focuses primarily on bridemaids couture and bridal accessories however we do carry a select number of gowns from Saeyoung Vu Couture. We love the chic and elegant designs!

Yes, it's an addiction!


It is no secret that I am a self proclaimed "shoe girl". In my never ending quest to find the absolute best wedding shoes for our brides- I came across these flip flops and HAD to have them in the studio.

Wear them down a sandy aisle on the beach, comfort your dancing feet at the end of the night or even off a hieght difference at the alter with you and your vertically challenged beau!

Enjoy!

Favours!




Creative Favours are not only fun to design but are also meaningful to guests. This favour features a simple box with chocolate chip cookies inside. Our client photographed all three of her dogs and had a label made up that featured the dogs with a saying below that said " please eat these before we do". These favours were served at the second night of her wedding celebrations - at an oceanside clambake. Guests loved it!

Event Styling




One of our favorite aspects of planning weddings is the event styling process. A lot of people are surprised to learn that our services can be retained for this portion only. What does our Event Styling Service offer?

While this varies from client to client based on their specific needs the journey typically looks like this:

We start with an initial design meeting where we work through questions that enable our stylists to get to know you as a couple. We like to know your favorite foods, where you spend your vacations, what you like to do on a warm sunny Sunday and many others. From here we start to look at colors, patterns, the season, the venue. We flip through countless idea books in our studio, we look at fabrics, chairs, glasses etc.. and through this process we find our ultimate inspiration point. This then becomes the focus our our design board. Each detail that we design will then always relate back to the inspiration source.

We work one on one with you to develop your stationery suite, fashion is next---we assist in selection the gown of your dreams, complete with all the appropriate accessories, as well as your girls- the bridesmaids dresses will also coordinate with the overall design concept. Table Furnishing are the third phase. Through a series of design meetings will be create for you a sample table for your wedding complete with linen, china, stemware, flatware and floral design. Along the way we assist in developing the food and beverage menu's - no detail is ever forgotten. The serving vessel for the passed miniature grilled cheese sandwiches is just as important as the the way we place the tent to make sure the sunset is appreciated.

Lighting and floral design are also extremely important in the design process- from lighting a room in amber to create a candle lit effect to every last flower in the room we work with you to style each piece appropriately.

Finally we will assist you with Gifts - Welcome Gifts, Guest Gifts, Attendant Gifts and gifts to present to each other on your wedding day!

WE ARE OPEN!

It's April 1st and Traci Romano Events is officially open. I am thrilled! Yesterday was a marathon to the finish to get things complete for the opening and we had a lot of AMAZING help. Mary Bess and Justin Marantz stopped by, not only are they fabulous clients of mine, they are also extremely talented photographers and as it turns out quite skilled at putting together coffee tables.

Andrew Rubenoff did his usual magic with lighting - which is still a work in progress but is quite something to see. He also created our dressing rooms in a very modern way. He suspended chocolate brown velvet fabric from the ceiling to make each dressing room- I love it!

Katherine from Botanica came by in the early evening in between installations and brought us four delicious-as-can-be floral arrangements.

Not to be outdone! Bob Doyle from Jamie Collins photography cleaned my windows- I am not kidding. As he says he worked for " CASHews"

Many , Many Many thanks to everyone----I am the luckiest girl ever to work with such great people.

Cheers!
