Alyssa and Brad’s wedding was during the peak of summer’s heat wave, and this stunning couple brought the hot hot hot! Alyssa wanted her guests to enjoy a luxurious evening as she and Brad said their vows to one another. She wanted a lush gala feel to the celebration. The tone was set immediately in the selection of venue, the lush Lucas Estate. Guests meandered through the backyard and pool area to the ceremony space in the lower gardens. The […]
The rich decadence of Moira and Randy’s wedding day was such a delight. The entire professional team loved this beautiful family and wanted everything to be beyond their wildest expectations for them. Randy wanted to get married in his childhood church, Sacred Heart, and Moira wanted their guests to indulge in a lush regal celebration. Mission accomplished. Moira and her ladies wore blush gowns that gave a hint to the impending spring season, but acknowledged the chill still in […]
On this first day of spring, and National Proposal Day, it seems only fitting to bring you the wedding of Julie and Michael. Their spring wedding was just the kick off to wedding season all of us need. After a cold winter, it was the perfect way to allow springs flowers to bloom and have a garden wedding – both outside and in. The ceremony was held at Michael’s childhood home which allowed guests to mingle with some wonderful guests, […]
Ease and sophistication just ooooooze from everything Chelsea and Jeff do and touch. These two, cool under pressure (and why wouldn’t they be, they are ER doctors) are the most relaxed and calm couple. From their first meeting, over breakfast, following an overnight shift at the hospital, they just looked at one another, turned to me said, “yes, we would love to work with you as our planner. Please send us a contract.” Every meeting or call after, was just […]
Every once in a while as a planner you hit the client jackpot. So let me just say, JACKPOT!!! I cannot even begin to describe the amount of love I have for Christine, Ryan and both of their families. There is something them, that when you instantly feel welcomed as a member of the family the moment you meet. From the moment I met Terri, Christine’s mom, (in a thunder storm of Biblical proportions) I thought “This woman is so […]
Oh I love a winter wedding! While the outside may be clear, crisp and cold, there is nothing like warming up to the warmth and intimacy of a wonderful candlelit wedding celebration! Maggie and Andrew had exactly that idea in mind for their wedding when they came me for their January wedding and I was so excited to help them plan their big day! Maggie and Andrew actually met (literally) on their way to Italy on a trip, so their […]
The wedding of Kate and Brad was stylish, uptown and chic — just like the couple themselves. Somehow this wedding – bursting at nearly 400 guests felt like a small dinner party because Kate and Brad took the time to ensure each intimate detail was carefully crafted and cultivated. It was an honor to help them create this splendid occasion!! Kate and Brad were married and the breathtaking Sacred Heart Catholic Church just south of downtown Indy. The architecture of this […]
As wedding season begins to wind down, and I reflect on my 2015 weddings, the wedding of Brittney and Conor resonates with me not only as a highlight of the year, but likely of my career. Brittney, Conor and their families are kind, outgoing, warm and entirely trusting — and oooohhh – they know how to celebrate! After dating since middle school, these life-long lovers tied the knot in bold style – and shared their weekend with vibrant color, whimsical […]
I admit, I’ve lacked in the blogging department this summer. It’s not for not trying – it’s just things here at Mon Amie Events, Inc have been a wee bit busy and very exciting in the Richard family. Our daughter Sabrina, who is 11, fulfilled her life-long ambition of competing on Food Network’s Rachael Ray’s Kids Cook-Off. Once she was named to the show, it was very secretive. Sabrina and I left for NY, filmed the entire series and […]

Now celebrating 11 years, this event is a collection of great design, decor ideas and distinctive tablescapes put together by Indiana’s preeminent planners, designers, florists and event professionals.
