A Visit With Mindy

Like Britney Spears is to Pop.

Like George Clooney is to Hollywood.

Like Bill Gates is to technology.

Like Warren Buffet is to success.

Mindy Weiss is our Wedding Goddess.

I got to attend The Most Ridiculous Wedding Event Ever! No, seriously, that was the name of the event. It was absolutely ridiculous!

Mindy Weiss hosted a room of 100+ planners from all over the country to hear her speak on all things weddings! From flowers to decor, music and dresses we got to hear all about new trends for 2011!!! Let's get to the details!

{The beautiful backdrop to the stage where the MANY wedding pros chatted from!}

{Place cards matching the theme, blue and green}

{Cereal in Jars! Just add milk!}

{Adorable place mats in trays! Making a not-so-cute breakfast tray oh-so-cute!}

{Flowers in metal containers. Metal colors are sooooo in this season!}

{The gathering room for all the attendees!}

{Over sized balloons, each tied to a guest's chair.}

{The chair of yours truly}

{Pads of paper individualized with our name waited at our seats}

{Floral arrangements that matched perfectly to the welcome reception}

{AND there she is! Mindy Weiss!}

{Genius Floral Designer Mark of Mark's Garden}

{Mark judging finalists in the wedding bouquet contest!}

{AND I won!!!! Swear!}

{Honestly, not to boast, but it is really pretty!}

{Food carts for lunch. I got a grilled cheese and salad. YUM I wish they could drive to me now!}

{Adorable spritzer with a lovely straw and perfect detailing!}

{It was a beautiful day. The napkins were right.}

{Randy from Say Yes to the Dress. He was so motivating and positive. Honestly, he was my favorite part of the day.}
