The Big Fake Wedding...is BACK in Baltimore!

5/10/2016

1 Comment

 
Picture
The Big Fake Wedding is coming to back to Baltimore! it is such an honor to be part of their featured vendor team again this summer—and you should know the vendor team is shaping out to be top notch!

The Eikoh Design Studio team, meaning me and my awesome, super lucky, and handsome husband, Brian, will be spend the evening sharing my products with you. You will see them live, in action—and it may just give you some ideas on how I can help you customize and personalize your big day! {Think: personalized toasting flutes, beautiful ring boxes, custom sandblasted mirrors, and more!}

Not familiar with The Big Fake Wedding? This unique wedding event, allows their selected vendors to perform their services as they would at a real wedding—and you get to see them in action! They also design, create and set-up a beautiful ceremony and reception for you to attend. The "Guests" (brides, grooms, maid of honors, mothers-of-the-bride, etc)., get to hear the music, taste the cake and smell the flowers while enjoying a night complete with food, dancing and other surprises.

The event is set up as a bridal show alternative, and uses a real couple for the wedding, so guests (and vendors) get to witness their vow renewal! Last year, the sweet couple Kylee & Jared, even included and additional surprise for guests, as their Sister & Brother-in-law renewed their vows too! Kylee's sister had no idea her husband had planned this special surprise and it was such a privilege to witness their love.

A lot of hard work goes into this event, by all vendors and I can't wait to start the collaborations with the rest of the team, to create a special night for you! Check back for behind-the-scenes shots of the design and preparation, and of course my event recap!

Wow, what a day! We had so much fun at Baltimore's first Big Fake Wedding. It was such an honor to be included in the festivities, sharing our products with guests and being surrounded by so many great creative industry professionals. 
It was so much fun to design a LifeSquare and custom glassware for Mr & Mrs Wineberg (Kylee & Jared), and even more fun to sit behind the scenes and watch the photographers in action with our products. The evening included a ton of surprises, including a vow renewal between a bridesmaid and groomsman!

Take a look at a few highlights from the Baltimore event below. Then, read more on The Big Fake Wedding's 
Blog and check out our feature on Ruffled!

The Big Fake Wedding is coming to Baltimore, and I am beyond honored to have been hand-selected as a preferred vendor with Eikoh Design Studio! This unique wedding event, allows their selected vendors to perform their services as they would at a real wedding—seeing them in action. The "Guests" (brides, grooms, maid of honors, mothers-of-the-bride, etc)., get to hear the music, taste the cake and smell the flowers while enjoying a night complete with food, dancing and other surprises.

This bridal show alternative uses a real couple for the wedding, so guests (and vendors) get to witness the couple renew their vows!

The Baltimore event will be held at the Gramercy Mansion on 7/23/15, and is already sold out, but try for the wait-list. 

Visit TheBigFakeWedding.com for more information and a complete list of participating vendors.

I am so excited to be apart of this event, and can't wait to see how all the hard work comes together for a fabulous evening. Check back for my event recap!

Rewind to April 2011, when my fiancé (now husband), my parents and I visited the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club as a prospective wedding venue for our May 2012 date. Despite the rainy and grey April Saturday, I fell in LOVE. I knew this was the place we had to have our wedding! (Photo from our visit in 2011)

I recall attending the Beach Club's Bridal Show in 2012, and knew first-hand how wonderful their events were! When I caught word of this year's upcoming show, I knew I wanted to get involved, and was thrilled and honored to become a vendor. I was excited to be back at my wedding venue to showcase Eikoh Design Studio...and the planning would begin!

I spent the weeks leading up to the show designing sample pieces and new marketing & promotion materials, as well as using social media outlets and the hashtag #bowtiesandbubbly to spread the word, as well as connect with other vendors. 

Fast forward to January 3, 2015...I kicked off 2015 with the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club's Bow Ties & Bubbly wedding soiree! Not only did we meet so many sweet couples and their families & friends, were we able to showcase our line of completely customizable gifts, that are perfect for weddings (as gifts, favors, and special keepsakes for all), and lots of other occasions!

Eikoh Design Studio gave away a pair of Bow Ties & Bubbly "Bride" & "Groom champagne glasses. Brides and Grooms that stopped by to chat with us were also entered to win a pair of their very own personalized glasses! Congratulations to winners on your prizes and everyone's upcoming weddings.  

As a vendor in the Beach House Ballroom I was able to participate in a styled shoot—my first of I hope many more—and was so excited to see the behind the scenes of the work of many talented vendors. Thank you to Carly Fuller for capturing some awesome images of our custom glassware. 

A shout out to Sarah Campbell, from Intrigue Design & Décor for her assistance in the time leading up to the show and for lending me her "donut wall" to use as my booth backdrop. My set-up was more than I could have imagined it would have been—THANK YOU!

A big thanks to my husband Brian for putting on this bowtie and assisting me throughout the day (set-up, clean-up, marketing and more).

It was so great to be back at the Beach Club, and back in the Beach House Ballroom where I was married. I truly enjoyed my first wedding show—and was honored to participate and be surrounded by so many respected and talented vendors. I look forward to the rest of 2015, and seeing where the new year will take Eikoh Design Studio.
