Pink Shell to host inaugural pig roast benefit - Fortmyersbeachtalk.com | Fort Myers Beach Bulletin, Fort Myers Beach Observer.

Fort Myers Beach Talk, just gave a really detailed run down of this week's Pink Shell Resort's special event in the article link shared above this post!
The popular SW Florida beach resort is hosting a Pig Roast benefiting worthy causes which affect our community in a positive way.
We who are of Hispanic origin, love these type of Roasts! The special box they are talking about, where some of these pigs will be cooked in, sounds like what we Latinos refer to as "La Caja China."
So... if you are thinking of fun family events for the weekend, or just want to check out another great location for a wedding or quince event, go ahead, come on down and enjoy a fun afternoon and lots of delicious food.

Happy Event Planning!

2011 Toilet Paper Wedding Dress Contest Winners

The Seventh Annual 2011 Toilet Paper Wedding Dress Contest Winners Were Announced this July! We thank http://www.cheap-chic-weddings.com/

This fun wedding event took place at The Boca Raton Bridal Store, and as boutique owner Jack Jones shows us in this video, the First place contest winner made her dress out of toilet paper, almost identical to the real gown made out of fabric in his store.

She won the $1,000 grand prize! Very well deserved indeed. All three winning brides-to-be and their TP dress styles were absolutely amazing!

More about the results of this unique South FL event can be read and seen at:

This creative bridal industry marketing idea, has given a whole new meaning to wedding gown designs in Florida!

D'LATINOS D'CORANDO con Xiomara 06-24-11

Today I share a new segment on the Spanish TV program D'Latinos called D'Corando, which means decorating. This particular video dedicates time to wedding planning and decorating, and showcases Florida wedding professionals mostly from Miami. As a SW Florida resident, and a local wedding professional, I think the idea is a great one! The segment is very pretty indeed. But as the The Event Lady "a promoter of our West coast wedding businesses, I feel this SW Florida based television show should feature a bit more Marco Island, Naples, Fort Myers, Cape Coral, Lehigh Acres, Port Charlotte quince and bridal vendors from our own very West coast. There are plenty of them right here offering beautiful and professional services too. Maybe we will see more of them in the future.

Let's promote the growth of our bridal industry everywhere, but please... local programs should help the growth of our their local vendors as well.

Happy Event Planning!
