What They Did Right: Irene & Baron

First of all, let me say, I loved this couple. We were totally obsessed with our bride Irene. Even though Baron and Irene were my clients, Xochitl always found a way to be involved in the meetings….that’s how much fun they were! We had such a great time planning the wedding, and even more fun the actual day of the event, and now we are just friends:) So happy to be able to share their photos, shot by 4Eyes Photography.

(XG: I just want to insert that I put this photo of us laughing because I thought it was funny how we were all having a ball, and Baron and his groomsmen were waiting for the Clang Clang!)

The ceremony was held at a Catholic church in their neighborhood, and guests were then taken on a double decker to the reception at the W Hotel. Irene got ready that morning with her bridal party in the eWOW suite at the W Hotel and the room was incredible. The bridal party shots are all taken on the rooftop in the suite!

I loved her flower arrangements, but I especially loved her bouquet. Jessy from Fleurs worked on the flowers, and this bouquet was straight from Jessy’s imagination. No, seriously, aside from the color Irene just told her to make something beautiful..and it was!

What I loved about Irene and Baron was that everything was about family (all of their siblings were in the wedding party and her dad sang at the ceremony), friends, and fun. Every decision that they made was really with their guests in mind. Making sure to take care of every detail, from transportation to hotel gift bags, the couple really wanted to let all of their guests know how much they wanted them all there on their special day. They also wanted everyone to have a good time and create a party vibe, so we decided to eliminate many of the reception formalities to let people just dance. I must admit that even though they told us that their friends would dance, I was not expecting everyone on the dance floor as soon as the reception started! Talk about knowing your crowd!
