It's too expensive, you can do it all yourself, the coordinator will take over and you'll miss out, you want to do it yourself, the venue has its own event manager...

If you're currently on the fence about whether or not to hire a wedding planner, take a look at this article! Then, check out the variety of services Classic Creations can help you with on and before your big day!


"There are a lot of big choices and decisions to be made when planning a wedding. When and where to get married, what to serve at the reception, and, most importantly, who to hire to help you.

Classic Creations in the Style Me Pretty Little Black Book!

We've said it once, and we'll say it again... we are obsessed with Style Me Pretty's wedding blog. For years they've been inspiring brides and planners alike with unique wedding ideas and fantastic photographs.

One of the most useful servies Style Me Pretty has is their Little Black Book. Style Me Pretty’s Little Black Book is a highly edited collection of wedding service providers – from mom and pop boutiques to A-Listers. "Bottom line, these vendors are the best of the best," they say.

Classic Creations is excited, honored, thirlled, blushing, ecstatic...you name it... to have recently been added as a featured vendor in the Style Me Pretty Little Black Book.

The process to become a Little Black Book member is actually quite extensive. To be added, a vendor must first be recommended by a SMP reader, a recent bride or an industry professional. Second, SMP dives head first into the vendor’s business. Their portfolio, their experience, their time in the industry. And finally, after feeling completely confident that a particular vendor is fabulous, they invite them to be a part of the book! It’s an invitation only book that truly prides itself on it’s commitment to quality above all else.

Thank you so much Style Me Pretty for adding us to your book!

Denver Post Etiquette Article

Classic Creations featured in Denver Post Wedding Etiquette Article:

Hey, wedding guests: Get it (etiquette) together, OK?
Today's bride and groom have more to worry about than a sexually explicit toast, overbearing in-laws and someone else wearing all white.

Bad guests who overshare on social media networking sites have left couples feeling exposed.

Posting photos online without permission is the biggest digital wedding gripe of brides who responded to a WeddingChannel.com poll, with 40 percent citing it. Poor behaviors run the gamut from tweeting an RSVP and doling out minute-by-minute status updates, to complaining about the food, accidentally announcing an engagement or alerting friends, co-workers and family members who weren't invited.

Bride and Bloom Magazine Feature!

Check us out in the latest issue of Bride and Bloom!

Have you seen this magazine, it's goorrrgeous! I love it for all the stunning floral ideas.

In this month's issue of Bride and Bloom we were selected as the Feature Coordinator!

After submitting our idea for the rustic elegance spread we didn't find out that we had been selected for this issue until the last minute. We were thrilled, but nervous that we had only one week to pull it all together!
Here's a few detail shots!

Love the close-up shot of the florals, check out the rustic treatment on the vase.

Julie Sandusky whipped up the paper items for us. We had birch wrap on everything from the invitation, vases, and even the napkin ring! That's the boutonniere on the right with the invite.


Our rustic table number....

Desiree at the Makery designed a cake that even looked like our birch inspiration. Oh... and thanks to Erika at the Villa Parker for letting us "borrow" a few branches for the cake base.

Thanks to Villa Parker, Bella-Fiori, Wildflower Linens, Jared Wilson Photography, JS Design, The Makery, & Event Rents for making this happen, and look so fab!

Photo Shoot on Monday

Bride and Bloom Fall Wedding Photo Shoot
I just returned from celebrating my hubby's 40th Birthday at Disneyland with the family. What a great time!

Here's what his office friends did to his office before we left:
Hundreds of personalized Happy Birthday sticky notes covered every square inch of his office, including his roller mat for his chair and floor. Yes, he's still cleaning them up.
It's always wonderful to get away with the family, but you do come back to a VERY BUSY week!
On Monday I'm doing a photo shoot for Bride and Bloom magazine as one of their featured wedding planners. It's going to be a beautiful fall look. Can't wait!
I'll let ya know when it's published! All right...back to work....
