ColumbusBrideandGroom Launch Party

Devoted to Details held the launch party for it's second business,

ColumbusBrideandGroom.com,

on January 15th at a new venue called Shanes in the City. This is located in the City Center Mall at the previous Forever XXI store. The space was rented by Shanes Gourmet Catering who also provided absolutely incredible food and friendly staff. The space was initially bare and provided a clean slate for The Daisy Basket to work their magic. It was decorated and designed to perfection from mirrored walls to hanging palladium windows from the ceiling! With the help of Lasting Impressions Event Rentals who provided the tables, linens, and amazing lounge seating, the look was complete!

Braving the extremely cold weather well over 200 guests were in attendance. They were greeted with champagne and hors d' oeuvres. The evening began with lounge music by Fermata Music, models were provided by Alan Ray Bridal and Classic Tuxedos. Arthur Murray Dance Studio provided gorgeous ballroom dancers to entertain us with their wonderful moves.
