So most of you know that when my company does a wedding, its a long day for me, right? Well, times that by 2 and add in temperatures about 103 degrees! July 24th was my company’s first double header! Yep, two weddings! I enlisted the help of my sister and her wonderful attention to details to take over one of the weddings. They were both amazing! Hot, but amazing! To recap….two catholic ceremonies, 520 guests, 4 limos, 2 wedding cakes, 550 folded napkins, 2 belly dancers, 2 djs, 4 videographers, 1 photobooth, 6 chandeleiers, 3 backdrops, 55 centerpieces, 150 votives, 10 bridesmaids, 10 groomsmen, 7 flower girls, 4 ring bearers and 2 happy couples!
Back in January I had the pleasure of sitting at a wedding with Merry and Jack, they ended up being ‘my couple’ for this weekend. Totally love them! From that day on, Merry and I started planning her July wedding! Now, keep in mind, Jack and Merry originally wanted to get married in Santa Cruz, so a July wedding sounded not too bad……but once they started researching the cost of a wedding in Santa Cruz they decided that the costs would be easier to control if they had the wedding in Fresno. So they kept the original July 24th date and kept on planning.
Special Thanks to Groom’s Cousin, and a very talented Photographer, Mher Vahakn for capturing these amazing images! Check out his site for more information about his work (www.mhervahakn.com)
Merry and Jack chose St Anthony’s for their traditional Catholic Mass followed by a reception at the Banker’s Ballroom in Downtown Fresno. We had about 320 guests at the downtown venue, and with the temps souring well over 100 degrees, it made for an interesting evening. But the guests really enjoyed the evening, no matter the heat. They just visited the bar more often! Marry and Jack planned a beautiful wedding and treated their guests to a delicious dinner and appetizers from Pardini’s catering. For dessert, the guests were treated to a beautiful wedding cake from Eddie’s Bakery.
The Banker’s Ballroom is a beautiful room by itself, but we added a few extra special touches by the talented Irene at Maty’s Chair Covers. Marry chose a hollywood gold linen with matching chair covers, that really complimented the reception room.
Gentile’s Flower Basket pulled the whole look together with bright fuschia pink and lime green centerpieces. The room was amazing!
Haro Entertainment was with us most of the day, providing videography, dj and photobooth services. Thanks again guys for all your hard work! (And Kristi) The guests danced the night away, even with the hot temperatures! Just throw on some Bruce Springsteen and they were rocking it night away

On the other end of town, Jasmine and Jose Macias had just tied the knot in a beautiful Catholic mass at St. John’s Cathedral and their guests were heading to the reception at Copper River Country Club. When the guests entered the room they were wowed with the beautiful decor work from Town & Country Party Rentals and Media Solutions. The guest tables were adorned with plum satin table linens and champagne napkins. Jasmine hired Mon Cher Designs to help create her beautiful invitations, programs and menu cards.
Janice from Town & Country really did a beautiful job for Jasmine and her wedding. The backwall was draped with champagne and oyster colored satin along with chandeleirs and uplighting. Media Solutions also created a unique dance floor monogram for the bride and groom.
Jasmine and Jose chose Leeds Photography to capture their very special day. Pam and her crew did an amazing job to capture the special moments and all the details of the ceremony and reception.
After dinner, Jasmine and Jose’s were treated to a special treat! Belly Dancers! Not something you see at every wedding reception right? But the guests really enjoyed it!
Special thanks to my sister, Leslie, for all her hard work on Jasmine’s wedding day!
