It was the start of the pandemic and this sweet couple was forced to pivot from a destination wedding in Ireland, to a wedding right in their back yard… literally! The guests were greeted with the melodic tunes of a bag piper, and shots of scotch and whiskey in etched glasses from their favorite castle […]

Never have we had a more fun loving group than this Miami crowd! This group all showed up in white tuxedos, the most fabulously high-fashion gowns, dripping in jewels, yet they crowd surfed, drank tequila from the bottles and danced on the bar all night long! I guess that’s a testament to the uber elegant, […]
