We had great sponsors, fantastic food (Dagar's Catering), enormous fun, door prizes you wouldn't believe, cold drinks, lively music (Music and Entertainment Events on Thursday & Complete Music on Saturday), fashion (Classy Concepts Design & Jim's Formal Wear), fun people (The Wedding Butler)... what more could you want in one room?

And now it is time for the ever famous "ribbon cutting" which we followed by a cake cutting! Wow, the cakes we had compliments of A Wedding Cake Moment on Thursday night and Sabrina's Sweets on Saturday were A-maze-ing!
I just like this picture because it makes me laugh.
We could all use a great haircut, but we had some amazing hair stylists and makeup artists there to get the models (and our staff!) ready for the show! Lucie Marie On Location (Saturday's Hair Stylist) and Joie De Vie Salon & Topaz Salon (Thursday's Stylists) & Classy Concepts Design (Saturday's Make Up) were ready to go! They were all on time and got everyone looking beautiful when we needed them.
We had an absolute blast with our grand opening, but most importantly, we had overwhelming support by all of the sponsors, volunteers and guest. I want to say thanks to special individuals that jumped in and helped make all of this happen. I appreciate you so much!
Aside from the sponsors mentioned above, there are a few more incredible companies that I would like to recognize:
Austin Party Central: Have you ever needed a great place for linens, tables and well... Everything? These guys are the best! Thank you guys for making it so organized for us to know what we were doing. :)
Petal Pushers: Man o man! Have you SEEN the flowers Stacey did for the show? Well, enough said. :) Her prices are incredible, but her service and ideas are BIG! Stacey, will you marry me?
XI Media Productions: Dusty was right on time... ready to go and pretty much rocked at capturing every moment of the show. I would completely use you again- thank you for everything!
Austin Affairs Event Planning: Amy & Meg were also models so I love them even more that they were willing to do what it took. What a great pair to work with... Amy & Meg, I appreciate all you did for the show!
Book My Travel for Less: Krysten and Rene gave away trip after trip at our opening and their company is so unique. Next time you need to book a flight, go to their site and compare!
Driftwood Vineyards: If you have not been out to this vineyard, you need to go today! They have such a great "Texas" style venue and they are so knowledgeable. The best wine too! Thank you for all your help!
