A return to the 1950's - Trinidad Weddings at Stechers Shoppers' Night

Don't blame us - we're in the business of weddings, so there's nothing we love more than themed events (occupational hazard!); and even better...one that includes a starlet from the Old Hollywood era.

So, you know we were excited when our friends at Stechers ( there they are below, looking all glammed up!):

Sent us this: 

Here are some snaps from the event:

Simone, Editor of Trinidad Weddings, takes a shopping break, in front of the Stechers Haven Spa, Long Circular Mall

One of my favourite perfume bottles on display - a work of art: Valentina by Valentino and ...who knew Pitbull had a fragrance for women too?

Trinidad Weddings' client Angostura, serves up some 1919!

Jewelry from John Medeiros, crafted in Rhode Island

Candles - loved the Wild Orchid and Sandalwood scent (middle)

Handmade, gold Peerless Cross pen, limited to a production of only 125 in the world!

More Marilyn! A quote of hers that I love?

"Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring."


This amazing porcelain sculpture below, by Lladró was on display at the event.

 

Guests were also treated to mehendi by our friend Nicole Joesph of Stained Mehendi and samples of organic tea.

Here's a snippet of the entertainment at the end:

Wedding Professionals Network At "Evenings With Trinidad Weddings (TW)"

Trinidad Weddings hosted its first "Evenings with TW" at the Anchorage Beach Club on Friday January 17, 2014. 

It was a lovely evening for Trinidad Weddings' members who include: event planners, decorators, photographers, cake artists, florists, bridal registry representatives, venue owners, artisans and entrepreneurs who provide services for weddings and events.

This was the first, formal networking event for local wedding professionals in Trinidad & Tobago.

Guests came together to get to know one another, in a relaxed atmosphere, with beautiful ambiance by the sea at The Anchorage Beach Club.

Simone Sant-Ghuran, Founder of Trinidad Weddings made the welcoming speech followed by Andrew Smith from the Anchorage Beach Club who spoke about the venue’s upgraded facilities (*see photo below)

There was also complimentary wine, courtesy AS Brydens:

Complimentary hors d'oeuvres by Flair Restaurant:

There was also an educational element to the event - Tricia Ramoutar-Soo Hon from INTACTT, the Guest Speaker, discussed how to manage cash flow in your business by using a demonstration of a pitcher of coloured water and glasses. (*see photo below).   

After this, guests got to meet each other during an entertaining  “deck of cards” networking game.  A pair of guests who had matching cards was chosen as the winners and presented with prizes.  

 

 

 Closing off the night, was a performance by tenor vocalist, Andre Mangatal.

Lime.tt was also there providing photo coverage for the event and promoting their "Photo Keepsakes", a service where photos are taken and printed on-site for any event.

Part proceeds from the event went to the Archie Stephen's home in Warrenville

It is funded currently only by St. Vincent de Paul. This home caters for children of the Cyril Ross Home and other homes who get too old to live there but still need room & board somewhere.
