We had the honor or privilege or back ache for creating another one of Joes magnificent weddings. I think my good friend and coworker Rob, had allot to do in the design of this one. I can't describe a wedding for you and give it justice but please allow me the opportunity to try. Let's see, lets' begin with the color lavender, so soft and not one of my favorites but quite beautiful. Add to the lavender a soft shade of minty celadon green and hence you have the back drop for lighting in an already magnificent room . The grand ball room of the Renaissance Hotel in Tower City down town Cleveland. The ball room is quite a large room but if you can imagine the room being made a little cozier by draped satin fabric from the ceiling across and down to the floor where it puddled ever so little. The table were covered with a soft lavender cloth and an embroidered overlay that was sheer with a little spray of embroidery in a floral pattern. The chairs were draped with a sheer sash every other of green and lavender. On the back of each was a large lavender purple hydrangea and a pink oceana rose and of course how can I forget a beautiful feather butterfly in a pretty lavender shade. The band was set up on a large stage , a pop type band of "ethnic" men. The couple and their family are Russian. Quite a snicker for me to hear New "Yerk " "New Yerk" rehearsed along with many other songs I can't begin to acknowledge. Funny that they act like American pop stars and look like American pop stars and are Russian! Any how the Bridal table was on a platform against the one wall that I helped to create a Floral picture frame that was behind the couples table, which the table cloth was covered with flowers and butterflies. The table top arrangements included these flowers in these numbers.... 30 lavender hydrangea, 20 green hydrangea, 20 hot pinky fushia peonies, 30 white stock, 30 lavender roses, 30 esperance roses, 20 hot pink roses and 6 stems of hanging amarynthus, fresh ivy and large 6 " clear with and iridescent sheen bubble glass ornament and 6 4" ones and silver curly willow and 10 butterflies ! Okay the were sitting upon a beautiful large hour glass vase with an arrangement of 3 open giant roses and yet another butterfly ! Breathtaking. Simply Gorgeous. Words are hard to use as in our language the words that were saved for special uses are so over used they are no longer special..... So Beautiful, extravagant, enormous, delicate , breathtaking, fabulous, spectacular and oh yea , exhausting all are appropriate! Does that make any sense ? HA ! I hope you can grasp the enormity of this... It is quite a job, I am so tired and I was only one of allot of SN people used to pull this huge job together ! That was just the ball room we had Flowers in the cocktail area, hordeourves area the desert and the place card area, the after party and oh we can't forget the restrooms and the cake oh the cake. When Kenny figures out how to put pictures form my phone on to the computer.... One Day I will share them with you. It is such a n honor to work for Joe and Anna and have the opportunity to work on these projects. But I'm so tired.... I have slept allot of my day away today. May back is killing me and my arms are so spent I can't do my hair now after my shower..... :) get the idea i'm pooped ? And I'm just one of 50 ! 50 people it took to make that happen.. Wow. Any way Be blessed this day and enjoy how very pretty it is. Matilda is missing.... sad about that..... hope she's not hurt somewhere and if she has been hit , I hope i can find her.... Love to you all.... Jenny
