Double A Wedding!

Amanda and Anthony were married at a beautiful church in Tuckahoe, NY. After the ceremony, the gorgeous couple was whisked away to the reception hall to join their friends and family.

Upon entering the ballroom, guests were treated to a feast for the eyes, as the room was adorned rich purple tones, accented by beautiful bluish- purple hydrangeas, and lighting effects. Guests were able to sample a variety of mouth-watering entrees, as there seemed to have been an endless supply of food. Throughout the night, everyone could enjoy the montage of family photos of the bride and groom. The DJ kept just about all 200 guests on the dance floor, moving from one favorite song to another, as well as some traditional classics to celebrate the bride and groom’s Italian heritage.

If it were at all possible that someone was not full from dinner, guests could enjoy the bountiful dessert bar, complete with the wedding cake, multiple chocolate fountains, Italian ice, and variety of pastries to include cannoli, Napoleon, Tri-color cookies, zepollis, chocolate dipped strawberries, Tiramisu, and so on!

Congratulations Amanda and Anthony!

Thanks again to my À Votre Service Events™ family for a job well done.

Ron, of Ron Soliman Photojounalism, is one of the best in the industry. His team is not only super efficient, but very professional. Ron was every where at once, expertly capturing every moment. During the reception, the guests really enjoyed the instant slideshow of the days events.

And here is what Ron said about us:

"Wedding Planner: Marie Danielle Vil-Young of À Votre Service Events™, LLC . Danielle and her team are one of the best in the NYC and NJ when it comes to wedding planning. On the day itself, Danielle was running around like crazy =) just to make sure everything that the bride needs is taken care of. She is very friendly and very professional."

Thank you Ron for the kind words!

Once again, Congratulations Jessica and L J!

2010 AVS Season Kicks Off With A Touch Down!

Spring has sprung, and love is in the air…especially for our beautiful couple Jessica and LJ!

Friday morning dawned on our beautiful bride, ecstatic with jitters to finally marry her charming fiancé. In a moment reminiscent of a modern day Romeo & Juliet, nearly 200 guests sighed as the stunning bride appeared above the gallery on a flowered balcony. The groom beamed as he caught sight of her for the first time. Everyone watched in awe as our beautiful bride elegantly descended the staircase to walk down the aisle lined with yellow Callas and candles.

After heartfelt "I Do's", the guests crossed the venue terrace to enter an exquisite cocktail hour packed with live musicians, mouth-watering hors d’oeuvres, and white-glove service. As the sun set, the doors to the reception opened to reveal a deep purple ballroom complemented with rich yellows, golds, and greens. Jaws dropped to see the beautiful decor: towering floral centerpieces, iridescent linens, gold china, and a cake fit only for a King & Queen. After dinner guests could indulge in a dessert bar and in cigars hand-rolled to order. But no wedding is complete without the infectious love of family, friends, and of course, the bride & groom dancing the night away. Alas, all good things must come to an end, the festivities came to a close with an impromptu rap concert with L J and his NFL buddies.

Congratulations Jessica and L J!

Once again, I thank my super team for a job well done!
