Royal Wedding Daze!

I am still in Royal Wedding daze!! That dress… STUNNING! The ceremony… BEAUTIFUL! The hats… outrageously perfect for this occasion! And of course the TWO kisses… so romantic! Everyone has been anxiously awaiting this day for years now and it finally has come and gone but the fashion trends and memories will last forever. The second the beautiful bride stepped out of the car people froze and everyone’s eyes were fixated on the most elegant wedding dress they have seen. The now Duchess was just as dazzling as her dress and lit up the day with her beautiful smile. All of the critics were so happy she went with the more simple and elegant dress than with the huge princess gown like Princess Diana did. My favorite parts of the dress were the beautifully laced arms, they just added to the elegance of the dress. The ceremony was very intimate even though they had about 2,000 of their closest friends and family there. The flowers or lack thereof, fit the Royal Wedding theme perfectly. Instead of millions of flowers the couple picked tall green trees to add to the elegance and simplicity of the wedding. Once the ceremony was over they rode through the streets back to the Buckingham Palace and there it was that they stood on the balcony and kissed, not once but twice! Now only if we were invited to their after-parties! We could only dream of the spectacular decorations, people and moments that were at those parties. I think we all need to go and find ourselves a prince to marry now! I hope Prince Harry is ready for me!

Tarpon Bay Luau

Charmed Weddings had the pleasure of helping Tarpon Bay plan, decorate and provide entertainment for their members going away soirée. The pairing of the beach, a beautiful sunset and some amazing people made the party a hit. The event was the perfect luau theme from the stunning decorations, to the dress-up photo booth and the thrilling Hawaiian fire dancers. We arrived at 1:30 and got to work right away setting up the decorations including the centerpieces that were made from beautiful bromeliads inside of a brightly colored luau hat topped off with some Hawaiian flowers around the hat. During the event, the charmed girls hosted a photo booth where you could dress up in luau attire and take your picture with the gorgeous beach in the background. Within the hour, we rushed and developed the photos so the guests could have their fun photos to take home and enjoy! We did have a small scare of rain clouds, but in the end, the clouds blew away and the sky turned bright just in time for the perfect sunset. The guest left exclaiming that this was the best event yet! All the people we worked with at Tarpon Bay were amazing and we always enjoy working with them! Pictures were taken by our intern, Coral!

Celeb Engagement Stories!

Carrie Ann Inaba

Katie Perry

Hiedi Klum

Carrie Ann Inaba, who is one of the judges on dancing with the stars, was proposed to on national TV this past Thursday, March 31. Her boyfriend Jesse Sloan surprised her on Live! With Regis and Kelly show while she was guest hosting with Regis.  He pretended to be a guest calling in and asking her what the best ways to propose to his girlfriend would be. He then appeared on stage, told her that she was everything to him and proposed with a gorgeous ring! 

Proposing can’t get any cuter than this, can it? Here are some other celeb proposals that have us gushing! 

On holiday with friends, the royal couple Kate and William visited the slopes of Mount Kenya in Africa. William took Kate on a beautiful helicopter ride and proposed with the stunning mountains in the backdrop. Being Royal has its perks! 

From Paris with love. Right after midnight, Tom Cruise proposed to Katie Holmes on top of the Eiffel tower after a lovely evening at the restaurant just inside the beautiful monument. What a perfect cliché proposal! 

Comedian, Russell Brand, popped the question to Katy Perry on New Year’s Eve just six months after they started dating. Brand planned a romantic dinner with candles and champagne to set the mood. No funny business on this night! 

The most creative proposal I have ever heard of was the proposal story of Heidi Klum and Seal. The couple flew to the top of at 14,000 foot high glacier where there was a special made igloo that had a bed with rose pedals waiting inside. He then proposed while enjoying the dinner and champagne that was also awaiting them inside the igloo. Good thing Heidi had Seal to cuddle up with in this igloo!
