Sunday February 28th was an absolutely beautiful day in the San Francisco Bay Area, the perfect backdrop for the free Pamper Yourself event hosted by Jade Studio Productions at their Treasure Island studio, as Crystal announced in her post last week. The Pamper Yourself Event was presented by “Ah…New Beginnings” Professional Wedding Consulting, Enchanting Events, and Iridescence Bridal Couture, and if you’re a Bay Area engaged couple I sure hope you took advantage and stopped by. The weather was perfect, the event was free, the studio was charming and creative, and there were a ton of great information and giveaways by all the wonderful vendors that made the event happen. If you missed it, we’ll keep you posted on their next collaborative bridal fair.
I especially liked the demonstrations and workshops that were ongoing throughout the event; every 15 minutes or so a new one would begin, along with raffle prizes for the attendees. And there were spa facial treatments, makeovers, and other pampering sessions to enjoy as well.
Following are some of the highlights we captured while visiting. Scroll to the end of the post for a complete list of attending vendors and links to their websites.
I’d say the event was a great success, thanks to the involvement of all the following wedding professionals:
