Yes, wedding planners do get married, too! And when they do, you can expect greatness. The November wedding of the lovely and talented Aurora Perez, owner of event planning firm Occasio Productions<\/a> (a Weddings in Houston <\/em>vendor partner), is a perfect example. Warm, intimate, and\u2014let\u2019s face it\u2014totally exquisite, Aurora and now-hubby Derek Smith\u2019s nuptials pay homage to the couple\u2019s shared passion for 1930s and 1940s glamour and romance. Following a music-filled hotel pool-deck ceremony, the wedding reception, at the \u201930s-era Backstreet Caf\u00e9, featured lace tablecloths, antique candlesticks, crystal chandeliers, lavender cocktails and plenty of peacock and ostrich accents\u2014all enticingly complemented by the patio setting\u2019s curling vines and bubbling fountains. When not dining at tables named for \u201930s and \u201940s Spanish ballads (which live performers sang tableside to the delight of guests), celebrants luxuriated on lounge furnishings from Darryl & Co.<\/a>, and nibbled slices from an insanely gorgeous “peacock” cake from Edible Designs by Jessie<\/a>. We invite you enjoy this truly lovely wedding\u2014and to tap into the talents of Occasio Productions for your own wedding celebration! Oh, and here\u2019s a suggestion: Vintage-loving brides who are looking for bouquet inspiration might want to pin a pic of Aurora\u2019s ribbon-wrapped purple-calla-and-feather creation…simply stunning. We\u2019re so thankful to Aurora and Derek for sharing their most joyful occasion with us, and to J. Cogliandro Photography<\/a> for evocative photos of this vintage-chic wedding. Congratulations, and happiest wishes to the newlyweds!<\/p>\n
