Real Wedding Inspiration: Sarah & Juan's Tiffany Blue Wedding

Nothing says marry me like a little teal box (what girl doesn't love Tiffany's after all?). In this case, our couple of love birds, Sarah & Juan, decided to continue the Tiffany blue color scheme into their wedding ceremony & reception.

The seating cards had pretty teal printed names with a teal diamond on the top left corner to further dress them up.

Their wedding programs also looked very elegant & were tied together with a teal ribbon.

For the ceremony this couple chose to keep it simple & classy with our white four post arbor, a beautiful white center spray of flowers, & white petals down the aisle. Also they had candles in vases at the beginning & end of the aisle that brought in their teal color scheme.

After the ceremony, guests enjoyed the cocktail hour outside on the terrace where our trees are lit up making for a lovely view. The lake on the golf course has a fountain which can be lit up as well that looks fantastic at night.

 Next guests were welcomed into the Pine Hurst Room & found their tables with these teal adorned table numbers on cute Eiffel Tower holders.

The tables had teal linen with silver chargers & alternating all white short & tall arrangements by our preferred vendor, Sun Kissed Flowers. The full white hydrangeas with delicate white roses were the perfect subtle arrangement to compliment the upscale look of the tables.

Now for the lovely cake by our preferred vendor Jaqki's Bakery-They went with a youthful Hello Kitty topper with lots of detailed floral designs on the cake. 

 On their way out, the guests could pick from the adorable bride & groom favor boxes of candies (notice the teal ribbon they added to the bride's dress) or the handmade flowers inside of customized teal shot glasses for the guests who didn't have a sweet tooth.

From beginning to end, this wedding was perfectly pulled together with Tiffany Blue (aka teal) details throughout.

Congrats to the new Mr. & Mrs. on a wonderful wedding & an amazing future together!

Tiffany & Co. Themed Baby Shower for Our Lovely Stacy!

Porter Valley County Club recently hosted a Tiffany & Co. themed baby shower for our very own Membership Relations Director, Stacy, to celebrate her soon to be born baby boy William. Stacy was welcomed by many Porter Valley Members & employees, including our General Manager, Gene Miller, who braved the almost all women crowd to show his support.

We all had a great time preparing for the party, although I had one hour of sleep making the Tiffany & Co. (or in this case, Stacy & Co.) cookie favors, but it was all worth it for this smile! :)

I tied in the theme further with centerpieces that I wrapped in teal paper & added a white ribbon with white hydrangeas on top to resemble a Tiffany & Co. gift box

The banquet staff did a gorgeous job setting up the room with white linen & fanned out teal napkins in each water cup 

We added a bit of teal lighting around the room & spotlighting the cake to make the party look fabulous. I think it was a fun touch & our lighting packages are very reasonably priced so everyone should consider adding a little color to their parties. With just a few uplights & spotlights you can really warm up & transform a room (the camera doesn't do it justice, but in person it makes a big difference).

No baby shower is complete without some fun, baby themed games for the guests to compete in. Here is Stacy with the winners of our three games: Baby Scrabble, How Many Kisses in the Baby Bottle, and Guess Mommy's Belly Size. Congrats! The guests all won gift cards to Cold Stone's Creamery, a suitable prize for a party celebrating an expectant mother; surely every mother-to-be has had ice cream cravings! ;)

Although Stacy was showered with tons of cute & useful gifts, including the stroller & car seat from her registry that the Porter Valley Department heads all chipped in to get her, the most wonderful thing was how many Members & staff came to show her their love & support. I'm sure she will have tons of excited babysitters for Baby Will when the time comes for a break!

The Private Events Department (Ana, aka me, your party loving blogger, on the left & Julie, our awesome Private Events Director, on the right) were so thrilled to put this together for one of our fav office girls. She totally deserved such a great celebration & we can't wait to meet Baby Will!

Congrats Stacy!
