Mason Jars at a Wedding? Yup!

2012-01-12T21:14:00.001-06:00

I absolutely love the trend of using mason jars in your wedding decor: whether your guests drink out of them or you use them as centerpieces, I'm a believer!

Agave Open House

2011-12-29T22:35:00.000-06:00

During my search for wedding venues, I came across a beautiful place called Agave Road. It's a private estate located on the outskirts of Houston in Katy Texas. This venue gives you that "Old World" rustic feel while still appealing to class and style.

They are having an Open House on January 12, 2012 from 6 to 9 p.m. Here are a couple of photos to give you a preview:

Boda en Mexico!

For you non-Spanish speakers, that means Wedding In Mexico! More specifically it took place in Cerro de la Bufa of Zacatecas. Charlie and Sarah Gutierrez wed in this historic city and took beautiful pictures in the mountains! Must be nice :)

Congratulations Charlie and Sarah!!

If you sat down at my reception, it was only to eat because Reggie Collier of Signature Signature EvenTx kept the party jumpin.' Reggie was the master of ceremonies for our wedding and did a fabulous job! He met all of our needs and then some! He even dressed the part, given that we asked all of our guests to wear black and white (or some variation). Here's our first dance:

Vendor Profile: Elegant Linens

2011-12-24T10:19:00.003-06:00

I can remember searching for a company to provide linens and chaircovers. I looked high and low; doing web searches, attending bridal shows and asking friends. Because of the venue that I had booked, Elegant Linens was the only company in Houston that provided the chaircovers that I needed for a particular chair (club chairs). After contacting Beth Flores, I remembered that I had encountered her table at the Bridal Extravaganza and that she had offered me a discount at the time (It was even written on the card...ha!). Elegant Linens was very professional and efficient and the black and white chaircovers were beautiful! As a bride/groom the last thing you want to worry about is set-up and that was the least of my worries that day thanks to Elegant Linens!

Here ya go:

Here's what else Elegant Linens has to offer:

Her accessories were a perfect match with Manolos to set off the look. Achieve the same glamour by viewing the same items below! Happy planning!!
