Association of Bridal Consultants 7th Annual Gala

I had the honor of collaborating on this special event for the Association of Bridal Consultants-Inland Empire. I serve as Co-Director for this organization and I am very proud of our team. This year we went with a "Cirque" theme and our event was held at The Sheraton Fairplex in Pomona. The Meritage Building at the Sheraton Fairplex was the perfect venue for our theme! There were so much for the guests to see and do: caricatures, tarot card reader, henna body art, make-up embellishments (fun jewels and airbrushed tattoos), magician, stilt walkers, acrobat, delicious cake and desserts, cappuccino bar, candy station, cotton candy martini’s, dancing, gorgeous decor and florals and amazing food! We had such a great turnout for this event and we are very thankful for our supporters and fellow event professionals. We couldn't have done this event without the help of every vendor that participated! I hope you enjoy these beautiful photos from Michelle Johnson Photography!
