The Loading Dock

This Tuesday [ Sept. 30th ] is the Brides.com/Brides Connecticut ,Market Party to celebrate all of the wonderful Connecticut Wedding Professionals.

It is going to be a fabulous party and I am thrilled to be coordinating it again this year. Last week I had the pleasure of meeting Mimi who owns The Loading Dock and I can't say enough about the space or Mimi and her team.

The Loading Dock fulfills a great need we have had in Connecticut for an alternative to tenting for a wedding reception or any type of event. It is 17,000 square feet of raw space whose transformation is only limited by your own creativity - evidenced by the images below...

Brides.com has a great team assembled to pull this event together including: Jordan Caterers, Big Wave Entertainment, Festivities, Hana Floral Design , Dance to The Music , John Dent Productions , Joanne Schoepher Photography, and of course our host - The Loading Dock.

I will be sure to post photo's !!!

Donald Trump and Simone Carvalli

Isn't this a great ad featuring one of our favorite Simone Carvalli Dresses? We have so much fun with this dress in our Salon - it looks beautiful on so many girls and is deceivingly light as a feather [ well maybe not a feather] !
