Just the Six of Us

One of MJSE's cutest couples ever just had a romantic private ceremony on the beach in Malibu. Both sets of parents were present for the wonderful moment and the windy but clear weather allowed for an empty beach and beautiful photos (got to love February in California!). The beautiful bride and groom held this intimate ceremony so the bride could "be barefoot in the sand" since their summer reception will be quite the Black Tie affair. (And for those of you who are wondering - No, you cannot be shoeless and in Black Tie!) Needless to say, we are counting the days until this beautiful couple marries in fabulous fashion! Thanks to Apertura for the gorgeous photos.

Destination I Do - Spring 2009

The next time you're cruising the "Women's Interests" section of local newsstand (we're pretty sure it's time to give weddings its own section already), be sure to pick up a copy of the Spring issue of Destination I Do and see our latest spread. Our lovely bride, Teresa Strasser (of TV Water Cooler and the Adam Carolla Show) has had her wedding featured again. From the Venetian in Las Vegas back to the Library in Downtown Los Angeles, her wedding, while spectacularly hip, was anything but typical. And, as this is the third time this wedding has been published, Mint Julep Social Events feels it's time to congratulate themselves, Fiore Designs, Michael & Anna Costa, Fusion Linens, and Digital Princess Productions for putting together a wildly successful event.

Los Angeles Love Story - [DPP Video]

We could not let Aimee and Mike's wedding at The Four Seasons Los Angeles at Beverly Hills pass by without showing off a lovely video rendering of the fabulous event. So, the snazzy girls at Digital Princess, on hand for all the docudrama, put together a short edit for us! We really like the Love Story DPP put together, interviewing the bride and groom separately as well as family members to get everyone's side of the story. On a side note, is it me, or does the groom look like an old-fashioned movie star?

Lucky in Love

Broken mirrors? Black cats? Open umbrellas??!! It must be Friday the 13th! At Mint Julep Social Events, we can make a party out of even the most dreaded of days. So, it was with great fervor and abandon that we threw our fabulous "Lucky in Love" Valentine's Eve party. We introduced only the most romantic elements in the bad luck bag. Red and pink Chinese umbrellas dangled playfully from the ceiling of our downtown loft, while broken mirrors were used by the Hostesses as serving trays for our frothy Champagne Sherbet punch. Being the bakers we are, all of the MJSE Hostesses baked something sweet for our dessert buffet (we're talking serious baking like macaroons, lace cookies, and mini lemon custard drops). Gorgoeus floral arrangements were provided by Elegant by Design and Sweet Pea, all captured by EMP Studios. Our artist bestie, Jophenstein, set up shop and held a live painting demo in one of the dimly lit nooks of the party while partygoers danced to AMAZING tunes spun by Turqouise Wisdom. Guests departed with a cute MJSE Makeout Mix , encouraging them to take the lovey dovey all the way home.
