2010!

That's us at a wedding this past August. While putting out the place cards I realized some friends were guests at the wedding. My friend Andrea took that picture. It's probably the only picture in existence of Alida & me at work, LOL! I can hardly believe it's 2010. Can it really be a year since I was sitting here with Coco by my side looking forward to 2009? Coco is still sitting right next to me every week throughout the year as I tell you about our latest beautiful wedding and post our pictures. This past year we had so many different, stunning, creative weddings in unique and sometimes challenging venues. We experienced diverse cultures, made new friends, saw old friends, welcomed new assistants, mentored novice planners, got published and just plain had fun at work. So many funny stories. There was the bride who's seating plan flew, yes flew, out the car window on the NJ Turnpike the night before the wedding, the best man who split his pants on the way to the ceremony, the church lady who hid the boutonnieres and corsages in a refrigerator in the basement for safe keeping and neglected to mention it to anyone, the bridesmaids who put on the wrong dresses and the steel drum band stuck in shore traffic 2 miles from the venue for 45 minutes. All funny now, not so funny at the time. Of course, everything turned out fine. We redid the seating, sewed the pants, found the flowers, pinned and laced the dresses and the steel drums made it to the ceremony. Just another day at work for Juliet Events. We are already looking forward to starting our season in the spring. Until then it's design meetings and floral appointments, color palate selection and idea generation, venue searches and vendor selection and all the finishing touches to bring the wedding together. Can't wait. Wishing you love and luck in the new year from everyone here at Juliet Events.
