so you wanna be a wedding planner?

We've got the perfect way for you to find out. Read on for details on the Cincy Event Planning internship....(aka the opportunity to work with two pretty cool chicks who happen to be pretty damn good at what they do)



What the internship is:
... An invaluable look at the hard work that really goes into an event
... A great opportunity to learn from two award winning (and fun!) planners in Cincy
... Climbing, hanging, folding, arranging, setting up, fixing, running, rearranging anything and everything

What the intership isn't:
... like anything you've seen in the movies (ie. The Wedding Planner)
... Paid
... Permanent (internship will span early spring + summer)
... Full-time (about 10-15 hours per week when we have an event)

Okay so you have the basic details...still interested?
Fab-u-lous...Keep reading



We definitely have more to chat about if you are:
... calm in the face of adversity (like a mother-in-law breathing down your neck)
... fun, funny (we like to laugh)
... a good negotiator
... pumped to do physical labor (in heels)
... comfortable getting dirty
... willing to learn lots of new skills (sewing anyone?)
... knowledgeable about colors, flowers
... have a good fashion sense (of course we have to look good)
... able to visualize and be creative without being directed
... keep up with the latest trends
... well organized



Sorry, we are not interested if:
... Your Saturdays are highly valuable and your social calendar is full of weekend cookouts and events.

Still reading? Sweet. Still Interested? Even better.

Here's what we want:
A list of 10 random facts that will help us get to know you. Be creative, quirky, silly, whatever, just don't bore us. Personality is key people.

An inspiration board - make it fun, interesting and not something we've seen a thousand times. The only rule? It has to incorporate orange. What can we say? It's our favorite color.

If you grab our attention, we'll be in touch. Send us an email (feel free to include photos, we LOVE photos) with your list to get things started.

Deadline for submission is Tuesday February 1st, 2011.

Here's what we don't want:
Your resume. Your job experience. Unsolicited requests for paid positions. Phone calls.

mmm... sweetcakes

When Marie & Lauren from Sweet Cakes Events reached out to us, I immediately went to to their website and fell in love. Truly. Their paper designs mesh perfectly with the delicious sweets they create. All perfectly coordinated without being over the top. Then... imagine how happy I was to find this on my front porch after a long day of Christmas shopping with two kiddos:



A gourmet s'more kit. Hello??? Do you SEE the size of those marshmallows? Y-U-M. It was packaged beautifully... almost to pretty to eat! Trust me it is as tasty as is it pretty.

If you need any sweet treats or lovely designs for an upcoming party, shower, etc. Check out Sweet Cakes Events Ltd. You will not be disappointed.

You can follow Lauren & Marie on Facebook here.

patrice + james featured on Style Me Pretty!



I love checking out all of the wedding goodness in my google reader in the morning, but even more so when I see a beautiful wedding of ours staring back at me. Style Me Pretty featured our very own CEP clients, Patrice + James wedding.

Patrice + James were married Labor Day weekend this year and we could not have had a better day! It was simply amazing. The entire event was flawless and so much fun. See the post on Style Me Pretty to hear about it in the bride's own words. And for those of you who love the details... check out the gallery of images.

This wedding is hands down one of my all-time favorites. Thank you Patrice + James for including us in your amazing team of vendors!
