Rebekah and Jason

Rebekah and Jason's Wedding in Paradise
Los Barriles,
Mexico


This was my first destination wedding and it was wonderful!! Rebekah and Jason had a wonderful week of fun for their guests.

They had a full day of snorkeling with the bridal party. A fishing tournament all day one day, you could either fish off the beach or from a boat. It was a beautiful day and very relaxing.

I worked with a great staff at the El Leonero Resort. Working in Mexico is very different then working in the states. They are so laid back and have no worries. It also helped that the bride and groom were very used to this and laid back as well.

Rebekah and Jason have been coming to this resort for 7 years with family and friends, so they knew it would be special. 80 people flew to Mexico to share in this special day with them. That says a lot about the kind of people they are.

The wedding was held on the beach on spectacular sunny day, the reception was on the patio of the hotel's restaurant. We had a very wonderful Mexican meal, and a Mariachi band. The night was perfect with a fabulous late night snack around 10:30 and the last dance around 11.

Congrats to Rebekah and Jason


Happy Planning

Sara and Justins Wedding 6/6/10

What a Great Day!!!
Sara and Justin Meyer had a fantastic wedding on June 6, 2010.

The wedding was at the Conservatory in St. Charles, MO.

The reception was a Ameristar.

Sara and Justin both live in NYC, so we had a "New York State of Mind" wedding. We had the New York City Skyline put on all their stationary and had a Go Bo made with the same Skyline. It was really beautiful. Most of their guests flew in from out of town, so it was kind of like a destination wedding.
This was a Sunday afternoon wedding and the weather was beautiful. They had a Trolley take their guests from the ceremony site to the Reception site,
and they arrived via horse and carriage.We had fantastic music provided by Millennium music with live music provided by Downtime and our awesome DJ Jason from Millennium.

A surprise musical group also preformed. Sara surprised Justin with a wedding gift, by flying in his favorite group from NYC the Ravonettes. They preformed their first dance "My Girl" a
nd then gave them a fantastic acoustic set of two of their favorite songs. Justin was so excited and surprised.

The band then took off and played the Have Nagila. So much fun!!!
The bride and groom danced the day away and then departed via cab to their hotel. Just like a New Yorker, she said she felt more at home in a cab then a Limo. I love it!!


They were so much fun to work with, I wish them many years of happiness!!

Happy Planning
