DCA Meadowlands

Last week I was very happy to attend the networking event at The Darien Community Center hosted by Roe and Bill of Festivities Catering. Festivities is the exclusive caterer at The DCA. Over 300 people attended. It was fabulous to see so many dear friends but to meet new colleagues as well. A big congratulations to the team at Festivities for a very successful event.

I snapped a few photo's with my blackberry but must admit I did not get very many great shots. I will post the professional images when they are available.

Justin Marantz and Christopher [ I loved the Hat!! ]

Bosco and Roe thanking everyone for attending

This was a "must show" for me. DD Nickel was sporting this great vintage bag. It had a loop on the back of it that she wore on her wrist. I was dying over it !!

Elan Band Showcase

Are you on the hunt for a great band for your wedding? Elan Artists is showcasing two of their bands this weekend in New York City. There is no better way to select a band than to hear them perform live.

I have not heard either band yet so I am hoping to attend both! Here is the information from Elan:

2 INCREDIBLE bands perform this Sunday 11/22 at 1PM and 4PM. Info below...

We are excited to present several New York's hottest and top special event dance bands at a casual and fun showcase!

Our groups are hip, sophisticated, and have zero cheese factor. The bands are comprised of recording artist, concert caliber musicians - several with actually GRAMMY award winning players in the line ups! They personally customize each event to reflect your individual taste and needs.

Both bands play a variety from classics to contemporary. They stay away from cliche wedding music and stick to more hip and sophisticated selections. Basically...the music you and your guests love!

Meet Stephanie and Robert

Okay , so they are not really the happy couple! Stephanie is one of our great clients and Robert Norman is the amazing photographer who captured her wedding in Italy. I must apologize for the extreme tardiness in this posting as the wedding was LAST summer. Yes LAST summer- but they are so good that I had to share

Here is the real couple ...........Meet Stephanie and Jay. We were so fortunate to assist Stephanie with one of her wedding gowns, the bridesmaid dresses from Badgley Mischka as well as her Twig and Fig and Cranes Invitations for both of her Italian and Stateside celebrations.






Images below are from the second celebration in Italy
