Vendor Spotlight
As I have mentioned before, getting a wedding planner for my wedding was one of the best decisions I could have made. A huge weight is lifted off your shoulders on the day of your wedding. Instead of worrying about the caterer being on time and the cake showing up, you get to enjoy getting ready with the most important people in your life and taking in all the moments of that beautiful day stress-free. Let's please not forget all the other details a planner can help with during the planning stages of that special day. It's nice to have the expertise of a planner on your side. The Tampa Metropolitan area has many awesome planners to choose from and I would like to recognize Christiana Winsor of Winsor Event Studios.
Christiana is the Founder & Senior Creative Consultant of Winsor Event Studio. She has been in the wedding industry for several years and brings amazing talent to the Tampa market.
Christiana can help create your vision of the perfect day. Planners can really help you more then you know:
- They can help tie all your ideas into one picture.
- They keep you organized and help create a timeline keep you on track.
- Relationships. Planners know people which can help to save you money. They have many relationships they have created through their experience in the industry and can help find you that florist that fits within your budget or the DJ that fits your style.
- They can also help with negotiating contracts and making sure you are getting what is best for your budget.
- A friend. At the end of the day, you have found a new friend who was there to experience your big day with you and that person helped create what you have been dreaming about for so long.
Christiana LOVES what she does and will work with brides on any budget. Be sure to check out her website for more information and read her client testimonials!

Hello Beautiful!
Helping to support our community for a good cause.....
Hello Beautiful Color Salon & Art Spa hosted the 4th Annual Fantasy Hair, Fashion and Art Show that was held at Hula Bay on Wednesday, October 12, 2011. Also known as the Winter Wonderland which supported Toys for Tots.
Kudos to Nicole Santana with Hello Beautiful, she hosted a beautiful and very successful event. Every seat was filled, all the standing areas were full and people were squeezing in the balcony areas to get a glimpse at what Winter Wonderland had to offer. The Marines had to go call in another large van because there were so many presents being donated that night...Modern Day Events had the pleasure of being involved with this great charity.
Scites Photography was on hand to capture all the wonderful moments throughout the night:
There was a fabulous turnout, amazing costumes, great hair and awesome entertainment. A BIG thank you goes out to everyone for their support in this charity.

Venues I love....
There are so many AWESOME venues in the Tampa Bay area (this includes St. Pete, Clearwater and Sarasota). We have beautiful beaches, amazing weather, great hotels and many venues that can create a fabulous event.
I love venues that provide outdoor/indoor wedding options with our weather (in the RIGHT months of course). So we'll start with those first and I'll follow-up with another post on great hotel venues I love.
***Destination brides be warned when booking a wedding outdoors in July and August, always have a PLAN B for rain and humidity!***
My first choice is probably completely due to my bias opinion. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Davis Islands Garden Club but I did get married there so others may think differently. I just feel there is so much you can do with this venue for the DIY bride. The outside area is already decorated for you with its beautiful garden and you can transform the reception hall area to whatever theme you want to create. :
The Crosley Estate is also a very beautiful venue. It's on the water and provides beautiful landscaping:
Ringling Museum in Sarasota has beautiful grounds and an amazing backdrop for an outdoor wedding:
The University of Tampa provides for a great location for your wedding or special event:
If you're looking for a very modern feel for your wedding, I think museums are great locations to get this look:
Tampa Museum of Art
Glazier Children's Museum:
Tampa Bay History Center located in Channelside near the St. Pete Times Forum:
Please be assured there are still so many awesome venues and these are just a handful of what the Tampa Bay area has to offer. Please feel free to add venues you think deserve to be on a list of best venues in Tampa Bay. I love getting feedback and even learning about hidden gems I don't know about! :)

Who cares about the chairs.....
On most occasions, hotels and venues have chairs for you to use for your wedding. In most cases, these chairs do not match what you have in mind for your big day. You have the option of choosing between ballroom chairs or metal chairs. Or sometimes you may get lucky and have the option of the white garden chair. But typically, these aren’t the best options. So it’s another cost you have to include in your budget.
 |
| Even the Ritz Carlton can't change the appearance of a ballroom chair. |
Believe it or not, chairs can make or break your wedding décor aesthetic. It’s typically not what you think of when remembering a wedding you have attended in the past. But that’s because the majority of the time, brides make sure the chairs are in line with all the other wedding décor they have chosen. They may be covered with chair covers or replaced with chiavari chairs but the ballroom chair is changed in some way, shape or form.
If you use the ballroom chairs, they can put a huge crimp in your decor. They stand out from everything else because they’re big, bulky and have some sort of design on them that do not match the look you are going for. Your beautiful reception becomes overshadowed by these ballroom chairs.
I may have mentioned this before but the chiavari chair can totally transform your reception décor. Chiavari chairs can make your wedding decor go from dull to sheek with the right color for your wedding.
