Mexico Wedding

Thank you to Danny and Jenn for letting me spend their special day with them in Cancun Mexico!

The ceremony was held under this beautiful pavilion, an intimate gathering of their 40 closest friends and family. Following the ceremony where the bride and groom shared their personalized vows, was a champagne toast under the veranda. Wedding party photographs were taken in front of the flamingo habitat and of course on the sandy, white shores of the Caribbean Sea.

Dinner was served at one of The Grand Palladium's spectacular a la carte restaurants. A mariachi band serenaded the couple where they danced their official first Dance as husband and wife, complete with sombreros and a shotgun for the bride.

The party continued at an outdoor pavilion overlooking one of the resort's many pools. The band played a spectacular mix of music from all genres, getting guests of all ages up on their feet.

The bride and groom decided to host a Colorado reception once returning to the states where they shared a slideshow of their favorite highlights to those unable to make the trip. Truly and unforgettable wedding for an unforgettable couple!

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
