6th Annual Enzoani Fashion Event

We had a wonderful weekend in the beautiful Newport Beach, California where we previewed the 2013 Enzoani Collections.  The event began on Thursday, June 7th where we were greeted after our flight to a Welcome Lounge complete with manicures, massages and a great atmosphere.  On Friday, June 8th, we all dressed in our black and white "Old Hollywood" inspired fashions for a full day of parties, networking and dresses!  We were transported to a secret location, where the cocktail party, formal dinner, runway show and after party took place.  The secret location was the exquisite St. Regis Hotel.  The runway show debuted that evening and the gowns were simply stunning!  This event was especially important for Enzoani, as it marked the first year the Enzoani offices from across the globe joined us in the States.  We were among other bridal shop owners from Africa, Europe and the United Kingdom.  It was a fabulous weekend and we are looking forward to next year.  Be looking for the 2013 Enzoani and Blue by Enzoani dresses in our store!

In The Cooler With Stems-April 28 Wedding

Stems by Serendipity is our floral design service.  The arrival of fresh flowers is like Christmas morning to us!  God's beautiful creation of flowers, with their amazing aromas and color variations, excite us every week as we anticipate their arrival.  How fun it is for us as we open the cardboard boxes and begin prepping the stems.  We thought you might enjoy seeing the garden of prepped flowers as they soak in water and the blooms open waiting to become part of a beautifully created bridal bouquet for our bride or a stunning centerpiece that takes center stage for a memorable affair.

Below are the stems for my daughter's wedding, which took place on Saturday, April 28, 2012.  Keep checking back for the finished products!

Wedding Color Trends!

“What are your wedding colors?“ is one of the first things a planner or floral designer will ask at a consultation. The color or theme can set the tone for the entire event. Pantone just released their Spring 2012 Fashion Color Report and the colors are bold and bright! Pantone is the world renowned authority on color that inspires design professionals from fashion to interior design to digital technology and paint. Can color trends influence the wedding industry? Absolutely! Everything from magazine photo shoots to bridesmaid dresses to floral design will be influenced by these colors. Here is the report along with a few of our favorite combinations using the new colors. Don’t be afraid to try something daring and new. Ask your planner or floral designer for help coordinating your color palette . You might be surprised with what works! To learn more abut Pantone’s colors check out their website.

Marvelous Mansion Wedding!

I am so excited to share this wedding with you! The wedding took place on Labor Day at the beautiful setting of Oxon Hill Manor in Maryland. Serendipity was delighted to design the florals and tablescapes for Joyette and Dimitri's wedding. The bride was stunning in a blush wedding gown. The wedding colors were cream, gold and silver with a hint of green in the florals and touches of pink in the bridal bouquet. Our floral design company, Stems by Serendipity, created floral arrangements in an eclectic collection of silver mercury glass, teacups, books and birdcages, many of which the bride provided. The reception was originally planned to take place on the beautiful outdoor terrace, however, the weather turned and we needed to bring the reception into the gorgeous mansion. Janice designed a beautifully unique floorplan, creating an intimate environment for the guests. I love this wedding and hope you enjoy this as much as I did! Happy Wedding Wednesday :)
