On March 7, 2008, Janet Puente and Oscar Gomez tied the knot! The church ceremony took place at St. Hugh's Catholic church in Coconut Grove and the wedding reception was held in the Merrick ballroom at the historic Westin Colonnade in Coral Gables.
It was a beautiful day outside. The sun was shinning and the girls were all in the bride's room getting their hair and makeup done. Kevianno excelled in making the girls beautiful and glamorous with his make-up techniques. The hairdresser (whose name I will not release) was the total opposite. She, herself, was 2 hours late (we had a total of 8 people to do their hair) she had sent in an assistant which started some of the girls off, however her presence was needed. As the day progressed, the issue with the hairdresser seemed to have worked out. The girls looked absolutely stunning in their couture bridesmaids gown. Janet looked amazing as she was going down the historical staircase towards her awaiting antique Rolls Royce.
Once at the church, photographer, Claudia Cebrian and videographer, Carolina Bonnelly were awaiting Janet's grand arrival. The groomsmen were in place, the procession was neatly organized as the doors opened and Janet began her procession alongside her proud father, Mr. Ignacio Puente. Oscar's smile lit up the entire church, when he saw his beautiful bride walking down the aisle. The ceremony went by smoothly and the guests began to depart to the reception location.
Upon arrival at the Colonnade, the guests were greeted with drinks, assorted passed hords. and a wonderful Jazz Trio (friends of the bride and groom) . The sign in "book" was a personalized platter and was placed on a beautifully decorated table containing candles, orchids, neatly placed rose petals and various cylinders all product of Gil Sosa. Once the guests were allowed to enter the ballroom, they were wowed by the wonderful sound of Tradison band.
After the formal introductions the salad course was served. Soon to follow was the main entree. During dinner, DJ Ubi provided music selections like bossa nova, light jazz and some spanish guitar selections.
The dancing soon began as Tradison opened up the dancefloor with their traditional and genuine spanish sound! The dancefloor, quickly filled and remained that way until 2:00am.
Overall, the entire event was flawless and thhe bride and groom had a wonderful time at their wedding. The positive comments received from the guests were very rewarding and although it was a very long day/night for me I was exstatic to have yet another happy client!
