Seven4One Showcase

The cutest boutique hotel, Seven4One, hosted a private bridal showcase and Mint Julep was there (yay!). We have to say this was the best “bridal show” that we have ever been to. It really wasn’t a bridal show in a traditional sense, more of a cocktail party with different bridal areas. They utilized the courtyard area for some vendors, and others set up shop in suites which was really fun and relaxing. First stop was the adorable photobooth by Four Quick Cliks on the way in. Fun! Next we tried the hotel’s Basil Peach Bruschetta – awesome. Then we stopped to chat with the invitation compnay, Artiface, who is doing our November 9th bride’s entire stationery suite (invites, menus, favors, etc.). We LOVED Movano Spa’s set up where they gave us a complimentary Goldenspoon Facial and massage. Next it was off to Spa Nordstrom’s suite for paraffin hand treatments and nail buffs – I wish we had time for the eyelash extensions! Great job S40!

The Big Apple

And… we’re back!  Mint Julep took another lovely trip to location scout for a fun-loving couple.  Currently living in Boston, the bride and groom came to the Big City to meet with us and search for the perfect venue.  We hit up all of the old favorites – The Plaza and The Waldorf Astoria, as well as some off the beaten path gems like the Brooklyn Botanic Garden’s Palm House and The Castle on the Hudson.  We also tried out high tea at Payard’s Patisserie for a possible bridal shower location.  Excellent scones!  Stay tuned for their location pick!
