Today I thought I would share something with you that is near and dear to my heart.  A true engagement success story, Marvin and I (The Heart Bandits) are finally married.  Being Romantic Event Planners I thought I would show you that I know a thing or 2 about romance and keeping the spark alive.  Also, as a Wedding Proposal Planner at The Heart Bandits, I also know what it is like to plan the most important day in someone’s life.  Every detail of my wedding, the most important day of my life, I planned and I think it turned out beautifully.  My theme was romance……………what do you think?

Here I am with butterflies, even after 3 years…………

Proposal Planner Gets Married

Michele Velazquez, The Heart Bandits

This is my amazing bouquet.  I chose to use the straps of my wedding dress to wrap the bouquet so that it would match the beading on my dress perfectly.

I have a very talented mother that made all of my wedding signs that I requested.  Here is one of the many!

We hired a string trio to play Coldplay, U2, Michael Jackson, and Radiohead songs.  They played Canon D when I walked down the aisle.

I wanted something different than rice or rose petals so I decided to have my guests throw purple cotton balls at us!

los-angeles-event-planner-1One of my favorite parts of my wedding was seeing my dream come to life with these centerpieces.  I insisted on having silver candelabras with crystals draping and I love it.

Since Marvin is Latino, we had to have a mariachi band!
