The Old Hollywood Meets Timeless Elegance event by Sharon Ringier Events was a night to remember! Setting the theme perfectly, Sharon outdid herself by even having a vintage Cadillac arrive which set a perfect scene for the models in their Fancy New York dresses and jewels and headpieces from The Left Bank. A whimsical mix of modern and vintage styles, this event was beautifully done. Thank you to JFK Photography and Ven Sherrod for the stunning photos.

Real Wedding - Our Very Own Haute Bride, Leslie







A stunning bride with the most amazing eyes we've ever seen.  Leslie chose one of our favorite designers, Haute Bride for her statement earrings and wedding accessories from The Left Bank Jewelry.  Her delicate Alencon lace veil did not overpower her petite frame and we just love the punch of color of the groom's tie and the soft yet stunning bouquet flowers of ranunculous beauties made by Fleur.  This gorgeous wedding was another wonderful event coordinated by Greatest Expectations.
And a grande merci beaucoup to her photographer, Jenn Gaudreau of Jennifer Kathryn Photography!
