Houston Wedding Celebration: Evanna & Jamal

December 9, 2015

It’s Wedding Wednesday!  Earlier this year, I had the pleasure of planning a beautiful Sunday afternoon wedding in Houston, Texas!  Evanna and Jamal were such a pleasure to work with!  After meeting them at a Dallas client’s wedding in 2014, I was super excited when they invited me to assist with planning their April 2015 at The Bell Tower on 34th.  Their BIG day was complete with a gorgeous, romantic ceremony followed by passed hors d’oeuvres and signature drinks during cocktail hour in the outdoor garden.  Evanna and Jamal’s reception was just as beautiful as it was fun!  There was stunning linen and decor, a 5 foot tall wedding cake, delicious food, and a New Orleans style 2nd line during the grand exit!  Here’s a peek at some of the photos courtesy of Akil Bennett Photography:

Use 1/4 cup of distilled white vinegar for every 1 cup of water.  Allow your fruit to soak for about 20 minutes.  Rinse and enjoy! 😋

Paper towel can be used for more than just cleanin Paper towel can be used for more than just cleaning up a mess!  If you need to quickly chill beverages before the next gathering at your home, here’s a quick tip: 

Use a damp paper towel to wrap the cans and bottles.  Place the wrapped drinks in the freezer for about 20 minutes.  As the water on the paper towel starts to evaporate, it will pull heat away from the drink, allowing it to cool faster! 🧊

What’s your favorite drink that comes in a can or bottle?  I’d love to know! 💗
