NYC Bridal Market | The Parties- Part 1 | Martha Stewart Weddings 10th Annual Celebration

This years Bridal Market was full of fun, great fashion and I got to see friends I haven't seen in a long time including twitter friends, fellow bloggers and event pros alike. Stay tuned for next week for even more wedding dress trends.

First off, Martha! Martha Stewart Weddings knows how to throw an event and I was so luck to be there along with the who's who of the wedding industry. The 2011 bridal market celebration was filled with tons of entertainment for the senses including amazing music by Élan Artist, manicures by Essie, ice cream by eCreamery, eyelashes by Paul Labrecque, custom scents by Wedding Library and Callahan catering who provided the most delightful mini finger foods I have seen! Check out the mini coke bottles and mini beer bottles.

They also had the always fun Photobooth by The booth as well as custom photo flipbooks by picFlips, SO fun!
