It was wonderful meeting so many new brides and grooms at the Hall at Huntingtown Bridal Show this past Sunday.   It was an excellent show with wonderful vendors and a fabulous fashion show.  We displayed a “Handsome Table Design” which accented the theme of the Inspiration Room which was “All About the Groom”.  The color scheme was black, red, and gold with black feather accents and chocolate cigars!  That was a hit with the grooms and dads that stopped by our booth.

We hope to see you this Sunday, March 11, 2012 at the Historic St. Mary’s City’s First Annual Bridal Show.  We will be displaying another fabulous table design.  Stop by and say hello.  We can’t wait to meet you!

“Wish Upon a Wedding is the world’s first nonprofit wish granting organization providing weddings and vow renewals for couples facing terminal illness and serious life-altering circumstances, regardless of sexual orientation. Often, couples facing such situations do not have the energy, time, money, or resources needed to plan their wedding. The organization takes care of all the details, offering couples a chance to relax and enjoy a very special day while surrounded by the love of their closest family and friends.” (www.wishuponawedding.org)

The gala was held at the historic Tremont Grande located in Baltimore Maryland.  The night was filled with delicious food, fabulous entertainment, delightful dance performances and a wonderful silent auction.

The night began with guests feasting on delicious cocktails and hors d’ oeuvres while bidding on spectacular products and services at the silent auction.

Upon the end of the Silent Auction, guests were  invited to the main ballroom for dinner.  They were wowed by the grandeur of this historic venue’s architectural details and features and beautiful centerpieces.

 One of the highlights of the evening was a live performance by the talented saxophonist, Art Sherrod Jr.

Many of our vendors donated their time, talents, and services to make this event successful.  A huge thank you to Jax Photography for supporting this organization and taking such beautiful and inspiring photos of the event.

It is not too late for you to support the organization.  There is a live silent auction featured on the website for brides and grooms to bid on items and services for their weddings.  All monies go towards granting wedding wishes for others in need.

It was such an honor to work with the Hilton Garden Inn.  This is a new hotel, 3 years young.  They are located in Solomons Island.  The hotel features approximately 100 guest rooms with suites.  The banquet facilities hosts 3,600 sq. ft.  which can accommodate a wedding reception of up to 130 guests.  This is a beautiful space for a wedding reception and/or rehearsal dinner.  The Assistant General Manager is skilled at ice sculpting.  He scuplted the amazing “Fish & Coral” ice sculpture shown above.  This location would also be ideal for a Destination Weekend Wedding  Event.  As Solomons Island offers many activities, loads of culture, and entertainment.  Please contact Beverly Brown, Director of Sales, for more information.  She can be reached on 410-326-0303.

Happy Planning!
