The Fairmont Newport Beach hosted our Coordinator meeting on May 10th, 2011 and it was fabulous. Guests walked into the beautiful outdoor space decorated with florals from Elegant by Design and linens by Classic Party Rentals. Evyn Charles provided live music both inside and out, adding to the relaxing, warm ambiance.
Our guest speaker, David Ramos, Banquets Manager, Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel gave us all a brief summary of TIPS, Training for Intervention Procedures relating to alcohol consumption among guests. Very informative! After our speaker concluded, we continued with an open discussion among fellow wedding coordinators.
Photographers Ron & Gabrielle Levy, Ron Levy Photo, were our featured talent on-site to capture all of the striking details and mingling of guests. One of these amazing details included the cake and favors donated by A Wish and a Wisk. Not only gorgeous to look at but delectable to eat! Lovely designers Mercedes and Susana from BG Design Studio provided the name tags and vendor cards.
Huge thanks to the Fairmont and all of our talented vendors that made our May meeting another successful and fun afternoon.
