Oops ...

I wrote a teaser post a few weeks ago about the bridal event that I attended at The Crescent Hotel in Dallas, but I forgot to share the pics and details of the event. Mom H and one of my bridesmaids met up with me at the hotel, where we had a couple yummy cocktails, tasted a little cake and viewed several rooms decorated by various florists, lighting companies, etc.

The main ballroom.

The funniest part of the night was walking into the first room, which happened to have the florals done by our florist (Bella Flora), lighting by our dj/lighting company (Lite Dallas) AND the Paciugo Gelato cart like we are going to have at our reception! It was so awesome to see the work of both companies come together in one room.

After walking around for a bit, we went across the hotel to see another space they have for receptions, as well as listen to the one and only Preston Bailey speak. I have to say, he was quite entertaining, very honest and I was FLOORED at how amazing his work is.

Myself and Preston Bailey!

The night ended with a gift bag, which I have to admit, was thoroughly disappointing. I might be a little spoiled because the last event I attended was free and gave the most awesome gift bag, but at this event, which cost $50 a person, the bag was merely a Kate Spade bag with a bunch of coupons thrown inside.

The final highlight of the night was viewing the live band, Signed Sealed Delivered, that was playing in the ballroom. We all enjoyed the music so much, especially Mom H, that we got more information on them and decided to book them for our wedding!

The amazing band!!!

With less then 3 months until the wedding, I'm afraid this was probably one of the last events I'll be attending. While a lot of fun, I'm afraid if I see too many more ideas I'm going to second guess the decisions I've made (not to mention, I need to spend more time finishing up the little details we have left).
