 The Christmas spirit was extended into early January with Blue’s holiday party, built around the storyline from the classic holiday tale - A Christmas Story! Guests were transported back to a simpler time with specialized photobooth backdrops, food, and decor reminiscent of Ralphie’s childhood home in the 1950’s. The Marriott Fort Collins hosted us again and tables were decorated with kitchen colanders in honor of Mother Parker’s holiday culinary feats, Red Ryder BB guns, and of course, the famous “Fragile” Leg Lamps. The only thing missing was a bar serving large glasses of Ovaltine! (Note - there were three open bars for the guests to imbibe from!)
 The evening was full of fellowship between all the various bank branches, company recognitions and awards, and of course dancing! Music and emceeing was provided by our favorite entertainer - DJ Kaaos! Activities also included a costume contest, and door prize drawings for all of the table centerpieces. 
Blue Federal Credit Union is one of our favorite clients to work with, and we were once again pleased to be part of the planning for their always fun company holiday party! If you’ve liked what you’ve seen and heard here - consider using our team to plan your next corporate function, retreat, or party!

So, why not treat them to a gift they’ll always treasure? If you need help choosing the perfect gift for each member of your bridal party, we’ve rounded up a few of the most popular (and classic) bridal party gift ideas:
 5. Tote bags: Treat your bridal party to a personalized tote or beach bag as a wedding souvenir. Bags can always be re-used for errands, at the beach or carrying groceries.
6. Stationary: Custom or monogrammed stationary is a classic bridal party gift (and one that keeps giving every time a person sends a thank you note or letter). 7. Beauty sets: Curate a few of your (and your bridesmaids’) favorite beauty items and gift the collection to help pamper your bridal party members. 8. Gift cards: Gift cards are always welcome gifts, and even more special when they’re personalized with a unique experience to share (i.e., rock climbing, a day at the spa or a trip to the driving range). ****************************************** With the right thank you gifts, your bridal party will feel as special as you do on your wedding day!

If you look this location up in your smartphone, you will likely find a picture of love - the love between Jen & Antonio!  In reality, these are the coordinates for the YMCA of the Rockies in Estes Park, and it was the beautiful site for the delightful reception celebrating the marriage of our clients, Jen and Antonio Garcia. Jen is a close My Big Day friend, and we were ecstatic to be a part of her Big Day!
 The day’s celebrations started in a cabin, aptly named “Blessings” on the YMCA site. Family members and the wedding party, met there to prepare for the nuptials at a local Catholic church, Our Lady of the Mountains, as well as to gather to surround both Jen and Antonio with love. There were pictures, primping, hugs, and mimosas.
 After the beautiful ceremony, guests were invited to gather in the large ballroom on the YMCA site. There they were served delicious drinks at an open bar, as well as homemade appetizers and snacks while they waited for the wedding party to return from a quick after ceremony photo shoot.  
 The evening was full of good food, drink, and entertainment provided by Suit & Tie DJ services. The highlight of the evening had to be during the speeches when Maid of Honor and Sister of the Bride turned her speech into a rap, complete with background singers. The crowd was enthralled as she “rocked the mic like a vandal”! 
 Guests danced the night away, and made several trips to the photobooth provided by Blue Orchid Photography.
The decor that the bride and groom chose for their reception site was full of personal and familial touches. There was a memory table filled with photos of family members and important friends who had passed. 
Their guestbook was a beautifully honed piece of wood with their wedding date and coordinates for guests to sign. They had a date jar and more photos of special dates in their relationship on display as well. It was very evident that the couple’s family and friends were a very important part of their relationship and life together.  We absolutely loved being able to be a part of this couple’s big day - the fact that Jen is a close My Big Day friend made it even more special and fun!

We had a wonderful time on NYE, and it sounds like all of our guests did too! We officially SOLD OUT early in the day on 12/31. We hated having to turn people away. Next year, plan for a sell out again, and get your tickets early! We've already committed to a 2018 ball with the Hilton. Tickets will go on sale in November again this year.
We are really proud of how our vignettes turned out and were SO pleased at how many folks took photos in them! We've already started working on the 2018 theme and vignette ideas!  Thank you for the MANY compliments we received about our DJ selection. DJ Kaaos is one of our FAVORITE DJs in Colorado, and we love that YOU love him too!  Putting on an event of this size and with this level of detail is no small feat. We cannot do it without all of the parties involved. Thank you to DJ Kaaos for keeping us dancing, Arcadian Pictures and Zebrajellyfish for capturing the event, Robin Rentals, our favorite bakeries B Sweet Cupcakes, Starlight Dessert Bar and Taste Local. Thank you to the Nanny Brigade for offering childcare services, Dora Grace for the amazing formal attire deals, Court Designs for the logo, our professional dancers, and the entire My Big Day event planning team for your hard work!

What’s not to love about fifty shades of white satin, tons of tulle and every kind of lace imaginable at your fingertips? This is your chance to play the fairy tale princess and pick the dress that fits you best. Wondering what’s hot on the runways for the 2018 wedding season (and what Meghan Markle might be sporting for the royal wedding)? This year’s bridal style trends are all about accessories and showing strategic skin.
