Pleasantdale!

Friday, January 30th, 2009

It was a busy night for us this Friday. After Battery Gardens, we went to Pleasantdale Chateau to surprise - our host - Freddie’s wife Gina. She loved her surprise and enjoyed an amazingly beautiful party that we were delighted to accompany. On our break we not only found an inside garden but a caricature artist as well as a palm reader. All this and we also performed from 7 til midnite!

Wednesday, October 8th, 2008

Last night, The Wedding Library hosted an amazing event at The Harvard Club for all of their vendor members.  It was fabulous!  First off, there was a photobooth.  The hit of the party! No matter what event you’re planning, you must rent a photobooth from our new friends at nycphotobooth!  (See evidence below)  Second, Liz and I met Gabriella from Matrimony Mony who is not to mention fun, but founded the most innovative company…  they choreograph your first dance!  You should really check them out.
