Evening of Bridal Luxury 2016

Engaged? How fabulous! Now it’s time to get inspired.
The lull in weddings during the winter months offers those of us in the industry the perfect opportunity for creativity before welcoming the return of wedding season with new ideas and a fresh outlook. Indeed, wedding professionals and engaged couples alike should take advantage of the respite to get down to brass tacks. Or gold tacks. Or maybe crystal?

Each year, Modern Luxury Brides gives a local luxury hotel the opportunity to showcase their offerings, working with fellow industry partners to provide brides- and bridegrooms-to-be a sampling of all things opulent for their upcoming nuptials.

This year, the Ritz-Carlton welcomes couples to explore their elegant event spaces, sample the stylings of their culinary staff, and ultimately get a sense of how their own special day might unfold in such surroundings. Party-goers can toast with Mionetto bubbly, enjoy the visual and rhythmic skills of Fig Weddings as well as featured selections of top drawer bridal apparel from Belle Vie Bridal Couture.
