Can I do this? Yes I can?

Hello. Hola. What's Up?

So what's new with me? A little bit of everything. First off, I am getting married in three months on October 10, 2014. I am very excited  but I am also becoming overwhelmed. As you may or may not know event planning is what I do. When it is someone else's wedding, it is very easy for me. For my event, its ten times worse. I did not realize how anal I was on somethings.

My problem is I love the fact that I am very abnormal. I even have named my different personalities, but that is totally different post. Anywho. I don't want our wedding to be completely traditional.(I have some tricks up my sleeve). If you are a hairdresser, people pretty much would expect your hair to look good all the time. If you are a doctor, some people would be shock if you are sick. With that being said , as a event planner  my event should be entertaining and flawless.

My engagement party theme was Hollywood movie premiere. It was so much fun and turned out better than I planned. I hired staff to set up, serve and clean up. We had a photographer who was the "paparazzi". WE rolled out the red carpet. To help with the blending of families, my family wore black and his wore red. It was so enjoyable to see the mixture of red and black at each table. Our families got along famously. There was dancing and we had a live band. I hired a wonderful artist to do caricatures of everyone.


These are our cupcake cakes from WalMart. Yes WalMart.




These edible arrangements was actually made by my sister. Excellent job!!!




Our candy buffet!!!!!!!!! Nothing was left.



The staff I hired individually from craigslist.org.
