Spring Soirée Fashion Show
On Friday, May 15th, 2015, Kim McMillian, the Lakeshore Center’s venue manager along with BeatCreative, and Andi Mans of Andi Mans Weddings put on an extraordinary special event and wedding showcase at the Ocoee Lakeshore Center and the Withers-Maguire House.
Withers - Maguire House
The Withers-Maguire house was the central area for all things wedding related and we also had our Spring Soirée fashion show right on the lawn sponsored by Something New Bridal Shop from Winter Park. We had an amazing tent fully equipped with a stage and seating, display tables for the fashion show sponsored by Kirby Rentals with florals by Cheryl’s Distinctive Creations, a living champagne girl by Dawn Gilmore Productions, a cocktail bar by Premier Event Services, Cuisiniers Catered cuisine providing light appetizers and our DJ and photo-booth sponsor Xclusive Deejays all set-up on the Withers-Maguire house lawn to show the event capabilities for larger scale events to be hosted at the house. Inside the house we showcased a variety of different wedding vendors and caterers that included – Vanity’s Lavish Events event planner, Betty J’s Floral, Arthur’s Catering, in the 2nd room, Young Love Events, Two Chicks and a Pot, the Flower Studio, Bold Beautiful and Beyond Events, Andi Mans Weddings and Party Flavors Custom Cakes.
The highlight of the event was the bridal fashion show tent which was beautiful designed and executed by Kirby Tents, Cheryl’s Distinctive Creations and Xclusive DJs. Something New Bridal Boutique and Andi Mans Weddings coordinated the gorgeous models and bridal wear that strutted down the runway.
Ocoee Lakeshore Arbors
On our walk back to the Ocoee Lakeshore Center we showcased the possibilities both wedding arbors can display – with a total transformation of the rustic tin arbor by Europa Design floral and in front of the grape arbor A Chair Affair Rentals set up a gorgeous ceremony set with their silver mirrored arch and white chiavari chairs with red chair pad accents also accompanying the ceremony area we had a saxophone musician playing relaxing sounds sponsored by Dawn Gilmore Productions.
