2012 Ambassador Star Gala

This past Saturday night we hosted our Ambassador Star Gala. What is the Gala? It's a big ol' party for our wonderful Bluegrass Members! Those who sponsored a New Member in 2011 were invited for a night of wining and dining in our Grand Ballroom as a big thanks from all of us at Bluegrass!

The theme was "Winter Wonderland", so we decked out the Ballroom with blue, silver, and white.

I know you've seen chair covers on here before, but these are a little bit different. Silver spandex chair covers gave our chairs a modern look along with some organza ties for even more shine!

We decked out the tables with some specialty linen from Liberty Party Rental, and while we were at it 

added some silver chargers for even more shine. 

We rented some candelabras for a few tables and tied some extra sparkle on them!

We fan folded the napkins and printed some pretty menus to give the place settings a special touch. 

I love it when we mix up the centerpieces! We got some tall vases and filled them with a mixture of rhinestones, pine cones, and silver branches. We of course enhanced with a few ornaments!

To give the candelabras some height, we placed them on some clear boxes filled with more rhinestones and silver pine cones.

To round out the centerpieces, we incorporated our ever-versatile brandy glasses. We filled them with artificial snow and added some flowers, feathers, branches, and pine cones for a very winter-y feel!

For the rest of the Ballroom, we had to add sparkle to anything we possibly could! We had to add some extra bling to our chandeliers.

We found these cool icicles to hang from the corner of the service station, how pretty!

We even made sure to dress up the coffee bar.

Our Members partied the night away! We're ready a great 2012 for Membership!

Scott/Basile Wedding Reception (Part 2)

You might be having the feeling of déjà vu right now, and that would be because I have already posted about this wedding! Yes, it was so good I had to post it twice! (To see the original post, click here.)

It's not too often I get copies of professional photos from the photographers that shoot here. (Ahem...) But this time, Donald Yeager came through! Here is just a little sample of the gorgeous pictures from the Scott/Basile Wedding Reception. Enjoy!

Congratulations again to Cati and Patrick!

Warren/Drake Wedding Reception

I apologize for my silence the past couple of weeks! It's 2012 now and we are ready for a whole new year of private events!

That being said, I couldn't let this one go by without posting some pictures! To finish off 2011, we welcomed the Warren/Drake Wedding Reception here at the club on Friday, December 30th, 2011. This was a very special occasion and I am so happy we were able to make it so very special for the Bride, Groom, and their families!

Here on the guest book table, one of our brandy glasses were used to make a really unique arrangement.

So cute!

The Ballroom looked great with lots of white and blue. 

I always love a mixture of high and low centerpieces. These huge vases were placed on top of lights to give a really cool glow from below!

On the bridal party and family tables, our large brandy glasses were used with some hydrangeas and looked very cool. 

Don't know if I've mentioned this, sometimes we put the cake smack-dab in the middle of the dance floor. This way, everyone can see the bride and groom cut the cake and they are on display! After the cake is cut, we grab the whole table and move it off the dance floor so we can cut and serve it. It's a really cool touch and makes for some awesome pictures!

This cake tied into the blue theme. The ribbon almost looks like the sashes on our chair covers!

The groom's cake showed his team spirit with an awesome UT cake. Go Vols!

Rick Ryan, our DJ entertainment for the evening, made this really cool pattern on the ceiling for the evening.

The night was just beautiful and I know everyone was very excited to celebrate the marriage of Lorie and Jordan. Congratulations you two!

It's engagement season! Our dates are filling up FAST! Call Kat Baumgartner at 615-824-6528 Ext. 111 for more information! Or you can always E-mail!
