NEW WEBSITE FOR OH, HOW CHARMING!


After a long wait (but worth every minute) the brand new Oh, How Charming! Event Production website is up and running. Be sure to browse through all the amazing weddings that owner Lisa Vorce and her staff have created over the past year. And note the sleek new corporate identity too (all their contact infomation will remain the same).

Lisa is a favorite among celebrities like Kobe Bryant (Lakers) and Elton Brand (Clippers), among others; and with this new website we should be seeing a lot more of her in the coming year. Congratulations Lisa and everyone at Oh, How Charming!

THE BRIDAL BAR AND TOM CRUISE & KATIE HOLMES WEDDING!


Saturday, November 18th in an intimate ceremony an hour outside of Rome, Italy, one of the most anticipated celebrity weddings of the decade became official. Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes wed among family, friends, and of course tons of a-list colleagues (see People's up to date information) People Magazine.


Months back when the planning was underway, The Bridal Bar was asked to assist on a top secret wedding and do what we do best, help the couple find their perfect wedding vendors. After help from the bar and careful consideration by the couple with the world at their disposal, Mr & Mrs selected one of The Bridal Bar's own, Robert Evans Studios to capture their precious wedding memories on film.


Robert Evans, the celebrity wedding photographer previously famous for having shot Brad & Jen's wedding in 2000, and his crew were witness to one of the biggest weddings of our time and has the spectacular pictures to prove it (though the world will never have the privilege of seeing most of them).


We want to congratulate Robert Evans for being selected as their wedding photographer and from what we see in the news thus far, doing the beautiful couple justice!


And thanks so much to Mr. and Mrs. Cruise and all their wonderful support staff for trusting The Bridal Bar to play a small role and for considering all of our fantastic vendors for their big day. We wish them all the happiness in the world and a lifelong, successful marriage!!
