Victoria & Eric's Extraordinary Wedding in Antigua, Guatemala

Wedding Coordinators: Saguzo Eventos, Guatemala
Antigua, Guatemala is a place that can only be described as magical. As a UNESCO heritage site, it remains almost exactly as it originally looked when it was Spain's capital of Central America in the 1500-1700s. Victoria & Eric fell in love with this amazing city while visiting from New York and knew it would make a perfect backdrop for their destination wedding. They treated their 100 guests to an extraordinary celebration that included thousands of red roses and candles (2,000 during the ceremony alone). I can't speak highly enough of Gladys and her fabulous team at Saguzo Eventos (if you're getting married in Guatemala you HAVE to use the Saguzo team to coordinate your wedding!). Victoria & Eric were incredibly nice and so easy to work with. This wedding was one of my highlights of the year!

Susan & Ryan's Edmonton, Alberta Engagement Session

Am I spoiled or what? Susan & Ryan treated me to a tour of some gardens and a baseball diamond for their engagement session in beautiful Edmonton, Alberta. What a great afternoon for a photos shoot! I am very excited for their upcoming wedding in Jasper and I know they are going to make a gorgeous bride & groom. The clock is ticking for early June!

MELISSA & BRENT GET MARRIED!!

Viva had so much fun working with Melissa & Brent this past year planning their October 9th 2010 wedding at the NAC. Melissa was a coordinators dream! Always keeping us in the loop, it was a sad week at Viva la wedding when an email from this fabulous bride didn't appear in our inbox. And the constant communication paid off. The end result was an absolutely flawless wedding day for this amazing couple. Here are a few images of the newlyweds captured by Ron of RZ Photo. Viva had never had the pleasure of working with Ron before and can happily say we're looking forward to collaborating on many more weddings in the future. Congratulations Melissa & Brent!!

PIE POPS! MMM, MMM GOOD!!

In the past Viva's blogged about wedding cakes, cupcakes, cake pops, and even cake shooters so we thought it was only fair to give pie a little love too. And what better way to do it than with these pie pops. Fill them with your favorite jelly or pureed fruit, seal the edges, then brush them with a little egg white before baking for that golden flaky texture. Mmm, mmm good!

Whether you display them with other tasty sweets on the dessert table at your wedding or wrap them up as favors for your guests to take home at the end of the night, they'll be hard to resist.
