Association of Bridal Consultants Vendor Showcase




This April Jessica participated in ABC first ever, Coordinators Tabletop Competition.

It was a great experience. More than anything I was able to get to know two wonderful coordinators, Jenny from Bliss Events and Sharon Cole with A Bride's Dream. There is no doubt we all have different tastes, but in the end I think it worked to our advantage!

Navy blue is one of the new hot colors of the year. After much discussion… we finally decided to go with a clean lined, chic yacht kind of feel. It was crucial that the draping and lighting felt cooling, soothing, and refreshing. I think we accomplished that! The place setting had a very clean and modern line to it. By the way thank you Crate and Barrel! (www.crateandbarrel.com). Each bowl was filled with sand and a gorgeous leopard print shell that Jenny found. It really added that dark color that was much needed. The gorgeous florals were created by the insanely talented Linda Seegar of Floral Poetry (www.floralpoetry.com). Linda used beached wood, many varieties of orchids and some really interesting exotic greens.
We tied with another team for first place. And though it is nice to know that brides and fellow professionals enjoyed our design, getting to know Jenny and Sharon was the true reward. That may sound cheesy, but it's true!
