2010 Wedding Fairs Photos

 - by Stephanie

Congratulations to all the newly engaged couples! A couple weekends ago we ventured out to the new JW Marriott for the San Antonio Wedding’s Magazine’s Wedding Fair. Thanks to all the brides and vendors that stopped by our booth to say hello and check out our latest packages. A very special thank you to An Event to Remember (www.saaneventtoremember.com) for providing our linens and floral decor. We love you guys!

We also would like to showcase some of our past wedding shows from this past January. The Bridal Extravaganza  event featured rustic and natural colors and florals. Our tables were adorned with ivory linens with copper organza and velvet swirl overlays. Small arrangements anchored the decor with red roses, curly willow, stargazers and more all around the booth. These linens are currently available from An Event to Remember and can be added to any of our package as an upgraded fabric.

The first Wedding Fair of the year had a more playful color scheme with charcoal gray and yellow accents. Our 6ft tables were dressed in An Event to Remember’s Charcoal Grey pintuck floor length fabric and the cocktail tables had a Mist Silver satin linen. The floral arrangements combined classic ivory roses with bright yellow spider mums to create a fun, yet classic arrangement.

We can’t forget to mention our awesome photo montages provided by Alamo Photographic (www.alamophotographic.com)! We love their work and their photos were the perfect addition to our booth!

Obtaining a Marriage License

 - by Stephanie

We get this question all of the time, so we thought we’d share some information on how to obtain your marriage license here in San Antonio.

Where you need to go:

Bexar County Clerk’s Office, 1st floor 

300 Dolorosa, San Antonio, TX 78205

Phone: (210) 335-2221

When you can get it:

Monday-Friday 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.

What you’ll need to bring:

  • Proof of age and identity (i.e. Driver’s License, Miltary ID, Passport)
  • Social Security card
  • $36 cash (they do not accept checks or credit cards)
  • If you have been married previously, a copy of your divorce decree

Important things to remember:

  • 72 hour waiting period after you obtain license before you can get married
  • Only good for 30 days
  • Must have present at your ceremony (this might sound like a no-brainer, but it’s happened before!)
