Tameca and Chandra 10/10/10 by Write Shot

Dear Tameca and Chandra,

I am pleased and honored to feature your beautiful “Celebration of Love and Life” on my blog highlighted by this beautiful wedding slide show.

From the moment I first spoke with both of you, I admired your story, your style (in every sense of the word), passion for life, your relationship with your families and friends and dedication to your community. Most of all, I admired, and still do, your love for each other.

As you look at these photos, I hope you remember with a smile, as I do, the highlights of your day.

There are so many moments that I recall that touched me. I have only room to list a few here, including . . .

Hanging with the two of you and your dearest friends in your surprise Wynn, Las Vegas Tower Suites (so cool!) and watching you transform into beautiful brides. Tameca, your first hesitant “mermaid” steps in your gown and Chandra, how you radiated confidence in your suit and complimented Tameca so well.

Experiencing your ceremony; the candlelight, the warmth and the poetry you selected that so encapsulates your relationship.

Watching you both on the dance floor surrounded by the love of your family and friends, having the time of your lives and enjoying the sweetness of the day. Oh, sweetness!! Did I mention ALL all the amazing desserts and 2 cakes including, your Vegas Vegan masterpiece?;)

I wish you both a lifetime together filled with good health and good fortune so you can keep doing the good you do for others, with lots of laughter, lots of joy and most of all….LOTS OF LOVE!

With Love,
Tracey

Your Las Vegas Wedding Concierge wishes to thank the Creative Wedding Team for all your talent, creativity and dedication and making this experience so wonderful for Tameca and Chandra.

Celebrate Today and Everyday with Love, Life and Style!!

I am delighted to share that Your Las Vegas Wedding Concierge is in the news again!

I am always so honored and delighted to be contacted by the press to share my love of weddings and particularly Las Vegas weddings.
It would seem I have become somewhat of an ambassador for Destination Las Vegas Weddings to some of the wedding media. It’s a title, whether official or not, that I am proud to hold as I truly love my adopted city of Las Vegas and creating memorable & Stylish Celebrations of Love & Life here!

As many of you may know already and for those who don’t, I am a Hamilton, Ontario, Canada native. I grew up and lived in Hamilton & Toronto until I moved to Las Vegas in 2000 to marry the Love of my Life (at Treasure Island-our sentimental hotel) and open my wedding consultancy firm, Your Las Vegas Wedding Concierge.

So what makes this piece of news so special to me is both my wonderful clients, Stacey & Aaron, who married at Wynn, Las Vegas Wedding Salon in 2008 and I are highlighted in an article in a special wedding feature for the Weekend Post section of Canada’s National Post newspaper. The Weekend Post is printed in every newspaper across Canada in the Canada.com media network.

It was somewhat serendipitous that the reporter found my blog, called me and found out I was from Canada too. Stacey & Aaron are such a fun, stylish couple.

It was a total joy to plan and produce their beautiful wedding celebration with many great memories.
I am thrilled they had this opportunity to tell the rest of Canada (and beyond) about their Las Vegas wedding experience and how they chose to celebrate it with LOVE, LIFE & great STYLE!!

Thanks you two for being a part of this!

Celebrate Your Day with Love, Life & Style!

Featured Wedding-Andy & Elizabeth | Four Seasons 5.17.09

Friday, May 29th, 2009




All Images by Altf.com Photography


Your Las Vegas Wedding Concierge had the great pleasure of planning & directing the absolutely beautiful (if I do say so myself) wedding of Andy & Elizabeth at the always elegant Four Seasons Resort, Las Vegas this past May 17th.

It has been one of my absolute favorite weddings this year for so many reasons beginning of course with a couple who I have come to know & love over the past 15 months.

The wedding locations took some twists and turns from when we first started out but, I’m a firm believer in “beshert” (Hebrew for “destined to be”) & the celebration could not have been more perfect than in the gorgeous Fountain Terrace of the Four Seasons thanks to the fantastic Asst. Director of Catering, Dennis Silknitter.

Andy & Elizabeth incorporated not only the beautiful green color but also as many “Green” elements they could into their wedding. From cutting down on paper & having an elegant seating chart/menu combination to bio-fueled luxury transportation for guests and environmentally, socially responsible wedding bands, the affair reflected this couples wish to celebrate in style & with respect for the environment.

It was a wonderful evening and truly a celebration of love, family & friends enjoying a beautiful environment, a fabulous Las Vegas night, delectable food & drink (Donut Bar & Eskimo Pies included) & live entertainment all night long. It wasn’t just a wedding, it was a PARTY!!

Thank you to the unbelievable, talented team of Wedding Professionals who made this event such a success. It’s a pleasure & honor to work alongside you. You make me look GREAT & you all ROCK!

Weddings like this & couples like Elizabeth & Andy are why I truly love my job!
  • Tifany of Gourmet Invitations for the amazing custom “linen inspired” invitations & reception pieces.
  • Randi of Naakiti Floral & Sit on This Chair for the gorgeous florals, decor, linens & chairs who is just a joy to work with & always goes above & beyond my expectations.
  • The uber-talented John Michael & Dalisa Cooper of Alt F Photography. It took 6 years to work with you FINALLY, & it was worth the wait:)-I’m going to make sure it won’t take that long again.
  • Lori White who is one of my absolute favorite hair & makeup stylists to work with.
  • SWANK A/V for those super cool light balloons.
  • The Steve Beyer Band for keeping us rockin’ all night long.
  • Vegas Photo Booths for all the photo fun. What WAS going on inside that cabana?;)!!
  • Pat Harris & the awesome Sight N’ Sound Events Video Team
  • Nicole from Earth Limos for the Eco-Luxury Rehearsal Dinner Transportation
And Thank YOU Andy & Elizabeth for allowing me to be a part of your lives this past year & help you bring your vision of your wedding to life. It was truly an honor & pleasure! Mazal Tov you two & may you have a long life (120 years or so) full of good fortune, good health, lots of laughs and of course, much love all ways and for always! X0

Your Las Vegas Wedding Concierge had the pleasure of planning this gorgeous wedding celebration that took place at one of my favorite venues, The Four Seasons, Las Vegas Resort, on April 17, 2009 in 28 days! Yes, JUST 4 WEEKS!

That was the first time, believe it or not, I had the opportunity to squeeze about 6-12 months of planning into less than a month and I must say for the record that it was a very busy 30 days and one of the most unexpected pleasurable planning experiences I have had to date.

From the time I met the Bride & Groom (due to a privacy contract I signed with the couple, I am not at liberty to reveal their names or any images of them or guests), I quickly discovered this was going to be a fantastic and very memorable party for them and their guests.

With the assistance of Asst. Catering Director Dennis Silknitter of the Four Seasons that served a sumptuous 6 course wedding meal, I began assembling a team of some of Las Vegas’ top (and my favorite) wedding professionals to create this gorgeous, warm ambience set in tones of bronze, golds, reds and oranges to compliment the bride’s gown & love of beautiful, bright and warm colors.

The wedding party walked down a petal lined, high gloss red aisle to a collection of red & orange florals on pedestals. Guests dined under a fabric canopy accented with crystals and flowers, lounged on European style gold sofas & ottomans, at antique gold mirrored tables and a monogrammed bar.

The beautiful decor was created by Andrea Sage, Marian Menezes and Nina Sauter of Destinations by Design.

The bride wanted to treat their guests to an after-dinner show and boy, DID WE PUT ON A SHOW. Thanks to Bruce Sampson of Steve Beyer Productions, we assembled a parade of entertainment to dazzle guests including belly dancers, a magician, “Cirque” performers, ballroom dancers and a magician, all orchestrated by a DJ & and “All Night Mike”, a great MC who kept everyone happy, laughing and dancing on the red dance floor all night long (when they weren’t enjoying the hot wedding trend Cold Stone Ice Cream and Hot Doughnut Stations)!!

The bride looked gorgeous thanks to my ace makeup artist Barbara Jo Batterman (THE BEST) and all the incredible images here were taken by the uber-talented Ray Iavasile of Ray Anthony Photography. I picked Ray to work with this couple as I knew this wedding was a great match for his style and I’m sure you will agree, I was right on!

The rest of the week long celebration included golf at Shadow Creek Golf Course, a Maverick Helicopter tour of the Grand Canyon, a family dinner at Charlie Palmer Steak and welcome in-suite receptions & brunches.

The event was a fabulous success which proved to me that when the stars align and you get amazing clients and wedding professionals to work with, planning a fabulous Las Vegas Wedding with great Style like this one in 28 days is a pleasure! THANK YOU!

The Wedding of Stacey & Aaron-8.23.08-Wynn, Las Vegas

Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008

Photo Credit: J&J Photography

Your Las Vegas Wedding Concierge had the distinct pleasure of planning the beautiful August 23rd, 2008 wedding of Stacey & Aaron at the fabulous Wynn,Las Vegas Resort and Casino; one of my favorite hotels and venues in Las Vegas to work with.

Stacey and Aaron are fellow Canadians (they live in Calgary, Alberta) so it was especially fun for this Canadian transplant (from Hamilton) to be a part of their wedding.

Stacey & Aaron were married in an incredibly romantic candlelight ceremony in the Wynn Wedding Salons’ Primrose Courtyard and then hosted a stylish night-club style reception, inspired by their love of ultra-cool PURE Night Club

Stacey and Aaron have incredible taste and Stacey’s attention to detail and their vision resulted in a beautiful and fun celebration in one of the Wynn’s elegant ballrooms that went practically all night long to 2:30 AM! My fellow Canadians DO KNOW HOW TO PARTY!

Please enjoy the “sneak peek” slideshow of the wedding courtesy of the uber-talented Jennifer Jackson of J&J Photography. This slideshow is so wonderful and the images are just incredible it has me in tears every time I watch it. It was a real pleasure working for the first time (of many I hope) with you Jennifer and Bridget. You are both so positive, upbeat, professional and gracious and you truly captured the love & spirit of this beautiful couple and beautiful day.

Thank you to the amazing team of wedding professionals that made planning this wedding for Stacey and Aaron a pleasure and a great success. Your talent, time, creativity and generosity are why Your Las Vegas Wedding Concierge loves to work with you again and again.

Witness "LOVE…IN MOTION"! New Video Feature on LVWeddingConcierge.com

Tuesday, July 8th, 2008
Kelly & Andy photographed by: Billy Johnson, Advanced Photography
I invite you to visit www.LVWeddingConcierge.com for the launch of the new video feature on my enhanced website…

“LOVE…IN MOTION”.

And that is what this truly is and is intended to be; a showcase to highlight all the emotion and fun and memorable “live” moments on film of the weddings I have had the pleasure to be part of captured and produced by the most talented & creative artists of wedding videography & cinematograpy I have the distinct pleasure of collaborating with.

I can’t stress enough how important it is to make room in your wedding budget for wedding videography in addition to photography. It is my hope and intention that this feature on my site will inspire you to consider including this important element on your wedding day!

To have this living documentation of your wedding day; to see and hear the sights and sounds that transport you back to that moment in time as only a creative video artist can bring to life is worth every dollar of the investment you will make when you work with a true professional.

Two wonderful people, Kelly & Andy, who were married at Cili Restaurant at Bali Hai Golf Club in 2006 are the couple whose incredibly memorable wedding I have chosen to launch “LOVE…IN MOTION”. The wedding was filmed by the talented Christopher Justus of Document Event Videography.

Thank you for allowing me to share this exciting news with you and I look forward to bringing you many more moments of “LOVE…IN MOTION” in the near future.

Have a Stylish Day!

Las Vegas Wedding Concierge’s Couple featured on Wedding Podcast Network!

Tuesday, May 13th, 2008
Photo Credit: Ashley Bartoletti

Bill and Kaylynn celebrated their fabulous Las Vegas Wedding in Style last September, 2007 at the fabulous Wynn, Las Vegas Resort and you can read my “diary” entry right from last September here.

It was such a beautiful, fun and warm celebration with their friends and family that was a true reflection of Bill and Kaylynn. It was such a pleasure knowing them and helping them create this special day. We became quite close (as often happens) and remain friends to this day.

So I was especially excited when a series of events led to Bill and Kaylynn being selected (and they accepted) to appear as featured newlyweds to share their wedding story on the “NewlywedCast Show“ on the Wedding Podcast Network, the #1 place on the internet for couples to be to listen to “Wedding Talk Radio” on their computers or download to their MP3 players or iPods.

The “NewlywedCast” show is the top rated show on the network where “Real Newlyweds” offer “Real Advice”.

This particular show will be a special “enhanced” podcast complete with personal pictures that Bill and Kaylynn have shared of themselves from their engagement and the wedding as well as the stunning professional wedding images by my friend, the very talented Ashley Bartoletti. The interview has so much more impact as you see and hear their story and learn all about their wedding story. I am happy to say they gave me a very nice “shout out”. Thanks B & K!

You can listen to Bill and Kaylynn right here from the syndicated Wedding Podcast Network content on the right side of my blog and read more on a special page of the Wedding Podcast Network.com that will have a summary of their interview and links to the Wynn, their “Las Vegas Wedding Concierge” and some of the other wedding resources and professionals (like Andrea Trubiro of LT Eventions who created the beautiful room) that are mentioned during the podcast.

And don’t worry if you can’t listen to it right away as the WPN maintains archived shows for at least a year and so does iTunes!

I hope you all enjoy the show and speaking of iTunes & iPods, I am having a VERY SPECIAL blog contest to celebrate the premiere of this “NewlywedCast” show. It is my MOST EXCITING ONE YET! You don’t want to miss entering this contest, I promise!

Thank you again to Bill & Kaylynn for being so gracious in sharing your beautiful story. It was like re-living that very special day with you all over again. I am sure your family and friends are going to enjoy this with you as well!

Have a Stylish Day!

Leigh-Anne & Todd-"An Officer & A Gentleman"

Tuesday, December 11th, 2007

As far as “photo finishes” go, this one could not be any finer than the beautiful images captured by Robert Valenca Photography (visit his blog to see more “sneak peek images)from my last wedding of 2007!!

Leigh-Anne & Todd are both officers in the United States Navy and wanted to have a fun Destination Las Vegas wedding with Las Vegas STYLE surrounded by their family and friends. They wanted to honor Todd’s familie’s Irish background & some of Leigh-Anne’s Southern Style. That wasn’t hard as Leigh-Anne’s charm, graciousness and the warmth and hospitality of this couple was evident in every little detail they planned.

And boy, we did it ALL-A fabulous wedding at the exclusive House of Blues Foundation Room on the 43rd floor of Mandalay Bay Resort with one of the most phenomenal views of the Las Vegas strip; a military “Sword Arch” grand entrance for the bride and groom led by an Irish bagpiper; elegant strings for the ceremony; the largest “Red Velvet” Tower of Roses cake I have ever seen and…of course, ELVIS! Yes, you heard it, a Stylish & elegant wedding with Elvis or should I say “Elvii”(the real impersonator is in the white jumpsuit and the one in the black is the groom’s friend) who rocked the wedding & had the ladies young & old swooning & put everyone in a party state of mind.
It was just a great day and just so much fun; full of laughs and smiles; they just soaked up all the love of their family and friends & thoroughly enjoyed every minute.That’s the way it should be & it’s a thrill to be a part of seeing two people that happy &helping make the day they envisioned come to life.
Leigh-Anne & Todd, it has been a pleasure and honor to know you and be part of your wedding and your lives. May your life together be blessed with good health, good luck, joy and MUCH LOVE ALWAYS!
Thank you to the fabulous wedding team that helped make Leigh-Anne & Todd’s a beautiful day to remember…Venue: House of Blues Foundation Room, Floral & Decor: Floral 2000, Cake: Freed’s Bakery, String Duo: Classical Entertainment, Bag Piper: Baskow & Associates, Elvis: Harry Shahoian as Elvis, Hair & Makeup Styling: Makeup in the 702, Videography: Document Event Videography, Transportation: Alan Waxler Group Chartered Services & Bell Trans Limousine.
