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!

Have Your Diamond Ring...& Eat it Too!

Chocolate Diamond Rings by "Iguana Makeit" on Etsy.com

You can have your big diamond ring now & eat it too!!

Your Las Vegas Wedding Concierge found these Chocolate Diamond Rings (which can be totally customized) through the Totally TableTops blog, based in Seattle, WA that I just happily discovered.  

IguanaMakeit on Etsy.com has a whole collection of delightful real life items molded into chocolate and painted to look incredibly like the real deal. In addition to shoes she has a collection of chocolate makeup and beautiful chocolate shoes!

The rings measure a large 5.5" diameter. The diamond is 1.5" wide, 1.25" long and a half inch thick. They use quality gourmet chocolate and can customize them any way you want, including adding a special "lustre dust", then packaged in a ring box with a pretty bow!

I thought this would be a perfect Valentine's Engagement opportunity because what could be better than chocolate AND a ring...combined! Guys, if you are listening, just make sure to include the real deal as well!

These would also make for great engagement party favors.

Oh, and don't forget to take a picture with the big "sparkler" "on" before nibbling so you can show it off!
