Boettcher Mansion bridal show re-scheduled


The Boettcher Mansion bridal show has been re-scheduled for Sunday, October 28th 12-3pm. Hopefully the weather cooperates better this weekend! I will be there with www.Go2Wed.com and have some new postcards that I will be handing out. Hope to see you there!

Poker Party

Who says event planning is limited to weddings? On Saturday October 20th I planned a surprise poker birthday party. The guest count was 11 to make for the perfect sized poker tournament. The poker table was rented from Triple S Party Rental in Greeley, CO. Unfortunately, the table and chips were delivered a few hours earlier than planned making it a little hard to keep the theme of the party a surprise but we still had fun! Decor included cards strung on garland and poker themed plates, napkins and cups. Guests dined on simple finger foods and toasted with martinis and margaritas. At the end of the night, the big winner received a gold metal as well as a small lump sum of cash! I am sure the night was a birthday surprise that he will never forget!

Wine Tasting

This upcoming Saturday evening, I will be putting on a wine tasting in Longmont. The host is expecting at least 8 guests. We will be sampling a 2004 Stone Home Ranch, Viognier, California , 2004 Hanging Rock Winery, Strathbogie Ranges Chardonnay, Victoria, Australia , Calixte, Brut, Cremant dAlsace , 2004 Mangrove, Merlot, California and 2005 Bentgate, Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, California. Lori has some great sounding hor d'ouvres on her menu; brie, stuffed mushrooms and other assorted cheeses and crackers. Guests are also being asked to bring with them their favorite Holiday recipe for which I will help them find a good wine to compliment. http://www.myttv.com/katie11565

Sylvan Dale Guest Ranch

Yesterday was the bridal show at Sylvan Dale Guest Ranch, on Hwy 34 in Loveland almost to Estes Park. There was a great turnout. The weather was surprisingly cooperative! The vendors were wonderful! (Thank you to John from Rootles, scavenger hunts, for keeping me company at the booth next to me.) It was my first time to Sylvan Dale and I was very impressed by its beauty! There were several outdoor ceremony sites over looking the lakes and streams there. Inside was cozy as well. This would be a perfect place to hold a wedding or event at any time of the year! http://sylvandale.com
