:: Our Decor & Design Journey: Pictures & Videos! #BBDllc ::

This year Beautiful Beyond Dreams, LLC has started to branch more into the decor and design aspect of planning amazing Weddings & Special Events, which we LOVE so much!!! My team & I has had several opportunities to put our decor skills to the test! Check out what my team & I have been up to this year so far as we begin our decor & design journey!!

Our Design Journey has Begun...

"Rustic Romance"

First up, Beautiful Beyond Dreams, LLC was presented with the opportunity to do a Designers Showcase at The Imperia in Somerset, NJ in early February! One of the design themes I pitched was "Rustic Romance"(we did the wine bottles side)! My team & I had a blast setting up at this event. Check out the video to see some snippets of our work, which are displayed within the first few minutes of the video!! :-D

The design concept for this theme came when I started collecting my roommates wine bottles..from there the theme was born!

"Easter Candy Buffet" 

Our next project that we came across was for a candy buffet company. Beautiful Beyond Dreams, LLC loves to do candy buffets. I love the look of them, the themes you can create and more. This candy buffet was one of our first and something that was not the norm, perhaps that's why I loved it so much. It was different and not something you would see at a typical Wedding or Event. So check out this inspiration board and enjoy! Pictures taken by Kareem Taylor!

We didn't get accepted for this project, but I am very happy I had the experience and would really love for all the candy buffets I do to be this detailed!! I really loved creating this candy buffet!! :-D

"20's Fundraising Gala" 

Finally, but definitely not the last design project was for a friend of mine. This young lady is apart of a group called the Junior Women's Club of Haddonfield. I was asked if I could participate by doing some 1920's decor. These ladies wanted simple, but elegant. Just little touches that would really enhance the room!! The ladies reaction to entering the room was awesome, it sure made me smile!! The candles really added to the ambiance and they came all dolled up in their 1920's outfits. The fundraising gala, which benefited The Valerie Fund an organization that helps children with cancer and blood disorders was a big success for them! My team & I was happy to play a small part in it all!! :-D

Since I cannot figure out the embed code, please click the link to check out this video to see just how successful this event was!

:: The EPIC Summit :: It was EPIC! ::

One thing I love about being in the wedding industry is the awesome conferences that I get to attend. There are tons to choose from and as a planner it's important I attend the ones that will truly benefit me as a business owner and my business as a whole. Well I truly hit Gold when I attended The EPIC Summit on March 30th at The Elan in Lodi, NJ! 

(Stationary by AART Event Planning)

The EPIC Summit was just amazing! The decor was beautiful. The chairs that we had our first two sessions in were fabulous to look at and even more comfy to sit and roll around in (if only I could of stuffed that in my blue WeddingWire bag and took it home to dream big and plan bigger..LOL), but unfortunately I couldn't. Besides the comfy chairs..the decor was stunning. The evening gala looked amazing!

The sessions at The EPIC Summit inspired me so greatly that I just was overly excited. I learned tons about technology and mobile marketing from Sonny G of WeddingWire. I was given a boost of inspiration that I so needed from Alan Berg. Sometimes you just need a little push and reminder to get up and get going and that's exactly what he did!! If only I had another hour to spend with the amazing Katy Carrier. She is on point and fabulous!!! The panel discussions were wonderful. It was relaxing and we got to interact and man are they hilarious!!! I got to chat with the amazing Jacqueline Nwobu of Munaluchi Bride Magazine..she's super cool! It was the best ever!! I also loved the trade show!!

 (One of the amazing vendors at the trade show "Opulent Ink Collection" Invitations from Yvette of SDezigns Weddings)

The Food!! The catering staff, by the end of the night; was calling me the "peanut girl" lol. Before I ate anything I was like "are there peanuts or any kind of nuts in anything???" Are you sure, because I don't want to die?" LOL...so they made sure I didn't die!! Thank you Gabriela of No Limit Events, LLC & Anthony at The Elan!! The food was so good and I am still alive. :-D

The Music was on point for the gala. I don't think I danced all night like that in a very long time!! At first it was just me and Teri up there making up our own two step..lol. Eventually Marni danced with us and before the night ended the super cool MC Ble Hamilton of Events by Amable had all the ladies on the dance floor. We sung with each other and did the soul train line..lol, it was fun!!!

I also had a mini reunion!! I am a Facebook addict (I admit proudly..lol ;-D) and it was so great to finally put faces to more of my fb friends!! I loved chatting with Yvette, Rachael & Aelicia, Ereny, Teri, LaQuitea, Katrina, Jasmine, Larissa, Ingrid and so many more ppl that I don't get to see everyday! The event was EPIC because I got to hang out and learn and laugh and just be me with so many cool professional colleagues!! :-D

And, I almost forgot..we saw a belly dancer that did a fabulous job!!!

So I had a BLAST at The EPIC Summit!!! I am so looking forward to the next one and congrats to Marni of Card Box Diva & Gabriela of No Limit Events, LLC and all the supporting sponsors that helped make this event EPIC!!! You all ROCK! :-D

UrDreamPlanner's Monday Inspiration!

  This past weekend I attended The EPIC Summit (will blog about that later this week!!). This event truly was EPIC!! I was so inspired by so many things shared by all of the amazing speakers and panelist. During one of my sessions I was told to watch Steve Jobs Commencement Speech, which I hadn't before. So I did!

If you haven't watched this, watch it!  If you have watched this before, watch it again!!

Love this speech because it's so inspiring. Life takes us through so much and through it all you have to push through and do what you love so you can make a difference in this world!


No matter what you go through in life, do what you love!
