Pittsburgh Event Planner | Stephanie's Bridal Shower

Celebrating love has never been more important + SHE was so grateful to plan this beautiful bridal shower for a client who is like family! SHE first met Stephanie when we planned her older sister’s wedding + have since watched Stephanie’s own love story evolve over the years. Even though Stephanie + TJ had to postpone their wedding not once, but twice, SHE was all about making sure one of their celebrations still occurred.

Stephanie’s bridal shower was held at The Oaklander Hotel in their top floor ballroom. As a fun surprise, Made by Mosaic provided guests with custom masks that matched the linens + napkins on each table. Additionally, not only did guests get their own Lit Soy Candle as a favor, they were also able to make their own floral bouquet from The Farmer’s Daughter’s custom floral cart. The balloon arch by Veronica Wallace Balloons + custom desserts by Tasty Bakery were other special + sweet touches for our bride to be. Even though this day was about her, Stephanie made sure to support numerous small businesses in Pittsburgh to help make her bridal shower one to remember + that is only one of the reasons why SHE loves her! We are so grateful for our clients + can’t wait to celebrate Stephanie + TJ’s love story in 2021

Pittsburgh Event Planner | The Buchner's Little Star

Twinkle, twinkle, little star - how {SHE} wonders what you are! Friends and family gathered to celebrate the soon-to-be arrival of the Buchner’s little star! Veronica’s Balloon Design made this event shine so bright by placing the balloons transversely on the tables + floating in the sky. Hens + Chicks provided a pop of greenery to this shower with their flowers. Guests were able to enjoy star cupcakes + cookies from our favorite bakery, Bella Christie + Lil’ Z’s. Those sweets were the perfect tasty treat! {SHE} was so thrilled to create another magical moment for the Buchner’s only a couple years after their beautiful New Years Eve wedding. {SHE} loves when clients become like family! Thank you to all our amazing vendors for making this event possible! {SHE} couldn’t have done it without you!

Pittsburgh Event Planner | Simon Anthony Baptism

 The Arias family celebrated the arrival of their prince Simon Anthony with a baptism ceremony + luncheon filled with family, friends + perfect little details. This intimate event featured a heavenly statement dessert table. Cascading balloons framed sweet treats detailed to the scripture Psalms 100:3, "We are his people, the sheep of his pasture." Custom monogram blocks, adorable little lambs and sweet prayers for Simon Anthony were just a few of the precious dessert designs. A touch of florals + cross embellished menus created a chic table scape to capture the perfect memories of this special day for this little blessing from above. {SHE} loves when we get to take part in special events of our clients, helping to make their life milestones memorable for years to come!
