Ho-tel, Mo-tel, Esmeralda Renaissance Inn, If your flowers start actin’ up…

OK so we’re event designers, not the Sugar Hill Gang.  But if your hotel lobby flowers do start acting up, let us know.  Here is a recent lobby arrangement from the Esmeralda Renaissance resort and spa, a great Palm Springs wedding location (or Palm Desert wedding location, or Indian Wells wedding location).  2011 wedding trends are towards the economical: and if you’ve read previous blogs about budget conscious wedding locations like Country Clubs, then you know places that come with onsite staff, catering, rentals and parking can save big chunks of your wedding budget.  And if you’re having a destination wedding, who wouldn’t want to come to a beautiful resort? And that’s where the Esmeralda Renaissance Palm Spring Resort and Spa comes into play. As you can see, we do the lobby flowers each week, and love to work there for events which we do regularly. We have some coming up!  What about yours?  Prom 2011? Destination wedding in Palm Desert? Bring it on! And remember…hip hop and you don’t stop! (oy vey. We better stop).

Bridal Show Report: Brides Rockin’ the Rocks and Talkin’ the Talk!

The brides were out at the Palm Valley Country Club yesterday, and so were all the vendors, friends old and new.  We got to see all the shiny new rings – mostly on girls who’ve been engaged a few months and are rarin’ to get started on those checklists.  The advice we pass along most frequently is the same whether you’ve had the ring for eleven minutes or eleven months: breathe, stand up straight, and enjoy your moment.  Yesterday the moment was kid-in-the candy-store time – all those resources laid out in one place, gee whiz!  Hard to know where to start.  We sat back and enjoyed the parade of happiness that walked past our booth.  And of course, admired our handiwork.  Thanks to Genoa from The Pastry Swan Bakery for modeling this bridal bouquet for us!
