Adventures in Paradise - 4 Venues 3 Days and a 30th Birthday to Remember!

On the weekend of November 18th -20th in South Beach, Miami; we were blessed to execute our largest event (logistically) to date.  This is event made us so proud because we planned it for almost 6 months and ended up with a weekend of fetes that surely pleased our client and her guests! Throughout the months leading up to the event we experienced some interesting occurrences including a job change, a move from Tennessee to New York, and even emergency surgery! But one thing that never wavered was the will to PARRRTAYYYY and do it big! So that is what we did.

What you have to know about Suezette is that she is SO FULL of LIFE with immeasurable SWAG! The theme all started with designer scrapbooking paper that I saw in a craft store. I saw it one night and said "that has Suezette written all over it, we HAVE TO DO THAT!" What is it you ask? Well vibrant Peacocks of course that would focus on OUR (hers and mine) favorite color PURPLE with accents of gold!  When I say it was ALL PLEASURE planning this event, I couldn't have asked for a better client.

The weekend's events included a Welcome Social on Friday night at the Riviera South Beach Hotel, a Pre-Party Social at the Clevelander Hotel, Adventures in Paradise- the Official Birthday Celebration at the Chart House Miami on Saturday, and a Farewell Brunch on Sunday at News Cafe.  Decor and styling was provided for the Welcome Social and Official Birthday Celebration! We had the pleasure of designing all the printables, invites, itinerary and several HAND-MADE decor elements! We even shared our vision for the cake and the fabulous Courtney Taylor made it come to life!!! Below are a few of my favs from the weekend! You can view the full album here.  I hope you enjoy!

I asked guests to describe Suezette in one word and tie their description to the tree
