Remembering the Open House

Bonjour! Today is such a gorgeous day outside, perfect for some walking or for laying out at the pool, or BEST OF ALL coming to see my at the boutique and seeing the gorgeous items I have for you! I made a lot of new changes to de ma fille. I changed up the look of the inside, changed the logo and have added on new vendors since August when I took ownership. I never threw a party for buying the boutique and with all these new changes it felt like I finally needed to do something. So I decided to throw a Open House at the end of March. Yes, I know it has been a while since then, but I would really like to share how it went and show off some amazing pictures from that night! First of all, I want to thank the vendors who helped me out in making this night super special: Tami Winn Events, Tracy Autem Photography, Creme de la Creme, City Kitchen Catering, Kate Foley Designs, Rent My Dust Rentals, Taylors Rental and Rent A Frog Valet! Tami Winn helped me plan out the night and had such great ideas! Tracy took the most amazing photos of the boutique and of some of my guests! Kate Foley made the most gorgeous centerpieces for my cocktail tables, beautiful blush and ivory roses. I have to say Jamie from Creme de la Creme makes mouthwatering cupcakes and macroons, I was living off those for the next couple of days and didn't complain about it one bit! We also had sugar cookies, caramel fudge brownies and meringues. The food from City Kitchen was so delicious, I ordered mini croissant sandwiches, stuffed mushrooms and tomoto basil risotto balls! I wanted these beautiful French vintage pink chairs from Rent My Dust and they fit perfectly in the boutique, I was so very happy to be able to have them here. I would definitely recommend using all of these vendors for any wedding or party you might have! I have had so many amazing comments about the open house still to this day. So now I would like to share a small little photo album with you of photos from that night. To see more, please go to 'de ma fille bridal' on Facebook and check out the full photo album there!
Look at that gorgeous vintage pink French chair!
Myself with the wonderful girls from Brides of North Texas, Meagan & Lindsey, as well as the lovely Tami Winn!
Of course I have to share with you some of the people I love, my Dad & Mom and my sweet boyfriend Shaun!
I hope you enjoyed seeing a few pictures from a fantastic night! à bientôt

Southlake Bridal Show

Bonjour! I know it has been a little while since I have posted, and so much has happened with de ma fille lately that I will be sharing more blogs in the near future. In this blog I would like to share with everyone how our Southlake Bridal Show went this past Sunday at the Hilton!
First of all, the Hilton is located on one of the most beautiful little squares I have ever seen and it is about 2 blocks away from the fabulous Cheesecake Factory, which my mother and I did eat at afterwards. The show was a success, happy brides everywhere! We met great vendors and ones we already love such as Give Me Props (vintage rentals) and MiPhotoBooth! I bring my best friends as my models at my booth and my lovely mother helps me as well. We enjoy getting to try out the photobooths and getting to dance to the lovely music being played. Bridal shows are an absolute blast! My gorgeous models!
At the end of the fashion show...
Fleur De Lis Bridal Productions put on this Southlake Bridal Show, they used our Enzoani "Gali" for some of their advertising. Check out these awesome pics of our gown!
And now I must share with you the cheesecake my mother and I shared at the Cheesecake Factory. I know you all were wondering what slice of heaven we picked, and the winner was the Ultimate Red Velvet Cake Cheesecake. Mmmmmm it was delicious!
à bientôt
