Last night was Chris and Allison’s wedding at the Art Museum. What a great couple — so nice, and sooo laid-back. And they had the most organized officiant I’ve ever worked with, Rev. Tom Douce.

It was a great, beautiful wedding with flowers from Sprouts, and a cake from Maribelle. Michael Bambino & Co. took the photographs and DJ Butlers (Tom) kept everyone entertained. If I get some pictures, I will post them soon.

In other news, The Downtowner is now the Official Print Sponsor for the Bitter Bridesmaid Bash! We are so excited to have the on board, and greatly appreciate their support of our event. Today Beth and I will be out hitting the streets to collect our prize donations, so I hope to soon post a list of all the fabulous things you might win if you come to the Bash!

Yesterday was the ISES Cincinnati New Board retreat… long day, but fun and definitely productive. We had our meeting in the Belvedere Room at the Hilton…. great spot for smaller meetings! Breakfast was delish– great waffles. I’m a big waffle fan.

Mid-day we had lunch up the street at Boi Na Braza– LOVED it! I’m totally not a red-meat person, but I still had a great lunch and great time. It’s just fun to watch, even. I think it is the perfect spot for a classier bachelor party. Everyone should definitely check it out sometime, although be prepared because it is definitely not inexpensive.

Tonight I have a tasting at Drees with one of my favorite couples, Donna and Eric. Elegant Fare is presenting. Should be fun! I’ll let everyone know what I think was the tastiest.

I just realized that this entire post is about food. Beware to all aspiring event planners– this industry is not for those on a diet!
