We really do get the best clients and Jeniper and Gregg were no exception. They had a good sense of fun and humor; Jen and I bonded over the upcoming Anchorman movie. Jen and Gregg love food, wine, fun, and unique experiences. Their November 2 wedding date was chosen to coincide with Epcot’s Food and Wine Festival. So I suggested they bring the food and wine concept to their wedding at the Quantum Leap Winery.
We were honored to be the very first wedding ceremony at the winery. We had the opportunity set the precedent on how ceremonies would be conducted in the ultra cool industrial space. The space was transformed using the winery’s existing wine barrels, decor by Lee Forrest Design, and lighting and rentals provided by Orlando Wedding and Party Rentals. The look of the event was rustic and industrial, but had European touches and contemporary sophistication. It was such a cool mix of styles: dark woods, sage green and ivory, chalk boards, chevron, stemless wine goblets, and the Millennium Falcon. It was so eclectic, but oh so perfect.
Each station created by Arthur’s Catering was enticing, creative, and delicious. Every dish was paired with a signature Quantum Leap wine or craft beer. But my favorite thing that the Arthur’s team created was the Bloody Mary bar. It was a feast for the eyes and palette.
A big thank you to Nu Visions in Photography. Their mature, flirty style of photography was a perfect fit for our couple.
[quote]Michele and her team were amazing throughout the planning of our wedding. Everyone is so creative and were so patient with me. The day of our wedding was when they REALLY BLEW OUR SOCKS OFF. It was everything we imagined and more. Most important my husband loved it. I mean he really loved it and talks about it to this day! I often hear him joke about there never being another wedding topping ours. THAT makes me HAPPY. I can’t thank Michele enough for pulling me through the planning and into our dream wedding.[/quote] Read Jeniper’s review and others on Wedding Wire

My life as an Orlando and Central Florida wedding planner has taught me many things: I know hurricane clauses in contracts like the back of my hand. One sip can tell me if a certain wine is too bold or just right for a large guest list. And… I’ve seen how self-care is of utmost […]
