Look Up!

One of my mentors along my career, Craig Reid, told me that most people forget to look up when walking. They naturally focus down toward the ground. "That is when you miss the things that matter most", he would say, reminding me to not forget to look up.

Here are a couple design ideas in honor of Mr. Reid.

I am in love with VivaTerra - Eco Living With Syle. This store offers great decorations for events or for purchasing gifts and favors. Couples can register for their wedding, and use personalized, unique items as decor for the ceremony and/or reception and then enjoy at home where they live happily ever.....

Hang these over your alter, then at use at home as a wind chime hanging over your front door as a reminder of your nuptials each time you enter your home.

Hang these cools lamps above the alter, a bar or couch seating

You can have an affordable NICE wedding in Santa Barbara

Here is the proof. Call us if you are interested in finding out more about it.

COMING SOON - Online Events!!!

Givezooks is busily working on a new Events web service that will be available in the early part of next year. This new events web service will allow planners to easily publish and promote fundraising events online. There is also an ability to sell tickets, accept donations and sell sponsorships for these events.


This tool should be a great resource. It is easy to use, cuts down on costs and streamlines productivity and accurateness, all while publicizing the event and bringing in more money. That is one of Events of Santa Barbara Inc.'s motto - "Work smarter not harder."

Weddings - The other side.....

Saturday Melissa and I celebrated a friend's wedding at the Four Seasons Biltmore.

As wedding planning professionals, we were thrilled to be on the other side.

Our Review A++

(but what else would you expect with such a team of well seasoned professionals)?

The ceremony site was stunning.

As soon as you walked into dinner you were welcomed by

a black dance floor and the head table.

The mirrors hung in the back gave the room such character and depth.

Rebecca from Imagine Events did an amazing job of executing all the details. She even had a lint roll brush in hand ensuring that all wedding party looked flawless before taking their step down the aisle. It was so nice to see the happy couple relaxed and having an amazing time and taking every moment in. Thank you Rebecca!

Nico Designs' creativity and ability to read his clients well captured the vision & essence of the bride and groom; and catching every guest’s attention to each design detail which unfolded throughout the evening.
