Wedding Shows and Photoshoots-An intimate look into my 2014

As March winds down, it is hard to believe that the 1st quarter of 2014 is coming to a close.  It has been a magical 3 months in the life of CeCe Designs and Events.  We have spent much of the year preparing for the traditional "wedding season" of April through October.  I hope you will take a moment and enjoy a few of the highlights of the things that we've been involved in as part of the Birmigham community and the wedding industry community.  Thanks to each of you who continue to support us in this journey.

In January, we were proud to once again partner with D'Armond Catering for the Southern Bridal Show at the BJCC.  If you or someone you know needs a cateror, then please visit their website: http://www.darmondcateringllc.com/ Here is a few of the pictures from our collaboration!

We had one beautiful wedding during the month of January, and want to take this opportunity to congratulate Leigh and Tyler.  They were married at one of our favorite venues, ShellB Acres.  Please check out their website for additional information: www.shellbacres.com/

 

 

 

We moved into February on a major high note as we completed a styled shoot for Valentine's Day with talented vendors and were featured on The Bridal Detective Blog.

We completed February on the same high note that we entered the month by participating in two great events.  On February 21st, we were proud to donate our flowers, decor, and time to The Bride's Against Breast Cancer event held at the historic Tutwiler Hotel in downtown Birmingham.  We did this in honor of our owner's Mother-in-Law, Sara Todd, who was battling stage 4 bone cancer.

 

 

Following this wonderful event, we were proud to be a featured vendor at The Charming Affair Bridal Show.  It was a great event at the newly opened Bridgestreet Gallery and Loft https://www.facebook.com/BridgeStreetGalleryandLoft

and provided an intimate look into our wedding world.

 

In March, we were so excited to partner with Invision Events to create the Head table for the 1st annual Not Wedding in Birmingham.  This is an extremely cool event where couples can come participate in a "ceremony" to see how wedding vendors work in real life.  Visit the following link for more details: http://www.thenotwedding.com/events/the-1st-birmingham-notwedding/  We had so much fun working with Courtney and Julie.  If you need a wedding planner, then we would highly recommend looking at their services: http://www.invevents.com/

 

 

 

We hope you have enjoyed the stroll through our first quarter.  We cannot wait to kick wedding season into high gear.  Thanks to each of you for following our progress.  Please check back often for more pictures and looks into our wild and crazy world!
