Pittsburgh Wedding Planner | LaLa + Prince's Engagement

Imagine a beautiful arrangement of flowers arriving to your business with a note from your beau that reads “be ready at 7:30pm, a car will pick you up!” The anticipation kills you throughout the day, you finally close shop, rush home, get pretty, + then your driver picks you up but you still have no idea where you’re going. Then you arrive at a chic hotel in the heart of the city, your car door opens + the bellman greets you by name, walks you through the lobby, presses the floor number + sends you up the elevator to which the door opens + a trail of flower petals awaits. You follow the petals down the hall which leads you to a roof top suite adorned with thousands of flowers in your favorite hue, a live band singing to you, + your beau on one knee!! A whole movie right?! LaLa’s Prince Charming wanted to pull out all of the stops with the dreamiest proposal EVER. With the help of greenSinner, they created the perfect statement backdrop for this proposal filled with premium flowers + pops of balloons. Purple everything for Prince’s new Feyoncé! This was pure romance. Congrats to Prince + LaLa! SHE can’t wait for your special day!
