Happy 2015 everyone! We are so excited to get back in the swing of things now that everyone is back from holiday! It was super quiet around here throughout most of December, but now it’s engagement season and we’ve already brought new couples into the R.E.D. family!
2014 was a crazy busy year for us and we kicked it off at The Wilshire Grand as we hosted New Jersey’s first same sex wedding giveaway! We received entries from all across the state, and on January 9, 2014 we announced Kris and Wesley as our winners. Their wedding took place in July 2014 and was a smash hit.
Given how successful our first event was, another venue wanted to show their support for the LGBT community, so we hosted the second annual contest. This year we are planning the wedding for Greg and JP and we can’t wait to give them their special day!
2014 brought us a lot of rustic brides and grooms looking for barns and farms. This was a super popular trend and we have plenty of it in 2015 as well. It’s safe to say that we are the experts in rustic design and decor and we love it! If you are looking to plan that type of wedding, please reach out to us so we can help out.
We also traveled to California to work on a wedding that will be coming to Bravo in the next few weeks. If you’re a fan of the show “Vanderpump Rules”, be sure to check out the amazing wedding of Scheana and Shay this February! We worked with this couple (and they are, by the way, so in love it’s adorable) for their beautiful wedding at Hummingbird Nest Ranch in Simi Valley, California. Be sure to tune in to see all of the details and drama. PS. It was 100 degrees out!
There are also some amazing trends for weddings in 2015 that we can’t wait to see. Of course, rustic chic is still big, and pink is still a popular color, but we’ll be seeing lots of all white weddings, as well as jewel toned ones in the Fall and Winter. Our couples this year have so many amazing ideas and we can’t wait to show you the pictures!
The first wedding of our year takes place next week in Rivera Maya, Mexico. This couple has been working with us for over a year now and they are taking off in just a few days. If you’re looking to plan a destination wedding, we can help you with every last detail, starting with finding the perfect venue. We want to wish Steve and Cheryl lots of luck as they walk down the sandy aisle and become our first married couple of 2015!
Be sure to follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram for behind the scenes photos, feature stories, blogs and more! We’re also in the process of updating our website so make sure to check back soon for that.
Happy New Year! Let’s kick some ass!
