Travis James Breitmaier! He came into this world today and already has his mommy and daddy Linsy and Alex wrapped around his little finger!
We had the pleasure of helping this couple become man and wife a year ago in Clearwater Beach at the Recreation Center. It was a beautiful touching ceremony as her dad walked her down the aisle and Alex helped him with his cane as he took Linsys hand.
An awesome couple is now an awesome family and we are blessed you thought enough of us to share it with us.
With much love from your Ideal Design Events family! Congratulations!

It’s almost time!

Knowing what a huge fan of Disney I am, we are overjoyed to announce the addition of some de-commissioned Disney props to our inventory. We came, we saw, we bought! The picture below was from Rachel and Corys wedding on April 14th. The Alice in Wonderland theme was thrilling for me! We used the trees from Mr Toads Wild Ride as a focal point in our cocktail hour and suspended the place cards from them!

Girl Scouts? Not so sweet!

I never in a million years thought I would be writing about an institution that I not only belonged to for years but my daughter as well!But…

I have seen it all now- I can officially retire! I was threatened by a girl scout leader today who had no budget an needed decor for a dance this weekend. We played phone tag for a week while we attended a funeral for a client and had 3 weddings and 2 proms over the weekend. She contacted Tom yesterday and he quoted her prices to rent a bubble machine and some misc items. She said she wrote down the prices incorrectly so Tom suggested an alternative that would fit in her budget and where to get it and this morning I got an email that she had “shared her story” on Facebook, twitter and to the Tampa bay times as well as prom coordinators all over and everyone would know we were not helping her with her cause. I was shocked! We donate our time and decor constantly to All Children’s and the Ronald McDonald house! We help the children’s miracle network and make a wish all the time! I replied back, copied the president of the Girl Scouts and wished her the best with her event and advised the GS of her behavior. Really?!? Is this what social media is for? To threaten me into doing something? She should be ashamed of herself!

Hours of Operation

hi all!

I wanted to clarify our hours so now one is knocking on a door to an empty office…

I take my first scheduled meeting at 8am, M-Th and take my last meeting at 8pm. Any time in between is fine to schedule an appointment if it is available. Expect to spend a half hour to an hour chatting about your wants and needs and a few minutes touring our facility. We love to show off our inventory and our work!

Unfortunately, I cannot do appointments on Friday due to rehearsals or Saturday due to weddings. Sunday and Monday are my days with my husband and my kids but I can come in on a Monday if necessary.

if you have any questions- just ask!

Happy Anniversary Tom!

Thank you for a wonderful 6 years and a family I adore! You are the best husband a girl could ask for- and truly the love of my life. I can only pray that I make you as happy as you make me!

A great exchange!

Starting April 1st- we are offering a coupon exchange program! Need a coupon for Michaels or Joann? Need a coupon for an online purchase? Just stop in and grab one and kindly leave a coupon for someone else to use! Don’t have one to leave? No worries- bring one another time!! It will only take a few minutes now to save! It all adds up in discounts so lets all help each other make the most of the wedding budget!

Prom season has begun!

idealdesignevents — Sun, 25 Mar 2012 00:21:42 +0000

We kicked off prom season with a super successful Prom of the Dead equip with a haunted house and zombie servers! We took the theme and went a step beyond. Our centerpieces were hands coming out of a grave with diamond rings and roses and our dancing zombie mannequins just made the event. It’s a long prom season and we are ready for it! We will always strive for a better and better product and always push the envelope.

Welcome to our family!!
