Trick or Treat

Call me partial, but how CUTE is he? Today was Christian's first photo shoot since he graced the world with his presence (mommy & baby have maternity portraits courtesy of my fav photographers AnnMarie & Marv at The Photo Loft) and overall he did a great job.

Such a MIGHTY LION, my little one.

Excellent Find

My very good friend and fellow Philadelphia Wedding Planner, Meredith Sellers Tomasulo of Elegant Engagements shared a find with me that I couldn't WAIT to share! If you have considered creating the hanging votive tree for your centerpieces, entrance table or ANYWHERE else in your reception space, boy will you be relieved! Ballard Designs, which I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE is offering a Twig Votive Tree for a steal price of $60, that is a close replica to it's Manzanita branch counterpart.

If you are not familiar with the Manzanita branch and you are considering creating the hanging votive tree, believe me, you and the Manzanita will become one. For hanging votives, Manzanitas work best because of their stiff rich bark and twisting branches, which are perfect for supporting the weight of the votive candle/holder. Manzanitas tend to be on the "pricey" side however, so if you are looking to save a little bit of money, the right type of curly willow will also do the trick. But now, thanks to Ballard, you have an alternative solution to acheive a similar look. How sweet is that?

Shaken not stirred

As a Grey Goose Cosmo lover, I was so excited at the sight of these awesome martini glasses featured on Red Envelope. Are these not absolutely FABULOUS??? Can we say...shower gift?

WIP

As in "work in progress" and the current state of the new POSH office in Merchantville, NJ. Just wanted to share a few more updated pictures. It is my mission to complete the final "touches" in conjunction with the end of the season and the holidays...Wish me luck!



Are these not the most FABULOUS linens you've ever seen? The camera lighting actually distorts the linen just a little, but it's a combination of fuschia, "burnt" orange and sage and it is truly gorgeous. Thank you Bette @ Select Event Rental in Pennsauken, NJ for supplying amazing linens as usual! (PS. We are still working on the tablescape...)

Also, did you check out the wall art. Look familiar? The logo is courtesy of one of my absolute favorite wedding resources- Wonderful Graffiti.

Chocolate and Weddings mmm.....

So, two of my favorite things, one great location-doesn't get much better than that!

The 10th Annual Chocolate show will take place at the Metropolitan Pavillion & Altman Building in Manhattan, from November 9-11th. The Opening Night Preview, featuring Fashion Show is actually on Thursday, November 8th from 6:30-10:30pm. If you're not familiar with the show, just imagine all of the chocolate industry giants together in one location, traveling the world from Paris to Japan to New York, where 40,000 square feet welcomes exhibitors from across the globe.

Tickets may be purchased online for $28. How much sweeter can it get?

If you plan to attend, please email me at isis@posheventsllc.com and we'll be sure to meet up during the event!
