In, normal people language, what is it you do?
I plan and design FABULOUS weddings for AMAZING couples
What are common misconceptions about why brides, wouldn't need to hire you?
Most brides think they either can’t afford us or they can handle everything on their own. The truth is the exact opposite. VE can save you time and most of all money.
Biggest inspiration for this wedding season?
Oh my!? This is a tough one. There are tons of things that inspire me, but the most important thing I focus on is COLOR, COLOR, COLOR!!!! Oh, and FUN, FUN, FUN!
Fav reality tv show:
TV? What’s that? I really don’t have time to watch tv, but if I do treat myself to an indulgence…I really enjoy Dancing with the Stars, hehe! And I watched The Bachelor for the first time this season and was pretty hooked!
What's been your fav "creation" at an event, thus far?
Wow, I have so many favorites…hmmmmm??? I definitely think the spring issue of Wedding Essentials Magazine was one of my absolute favorite designs of all time, but if I had to pick an actual event or wedding as of today, I think it would be the Laciak wedding May 2010.
We designed 4 very different centerpieces, brought in manicured topiary trees to mimic a garden, we had live birds, lounge furniture, custom made linens in a beautiful buttercup “Laciak” yellow, and the list goes on!! FAB!
Areas you cover?
We are available for travel worldwide! But…are based out of Northwest Indiana with a large focus on the lake front market.
If you could design for one celebrity wedding, whose wedding would it be & why?
Eva Mendez <3 There is really no reason why, HA! She is just smokin’!
Best tip you could give a bride, designing a wedding.
DUH…Hire the best in the industry!!! Virtuous Events
