Carmen and Xavrae's Wedding 03/28/2009

Carmen and Xavrae were a really easy going couple. He was so happy on that day! He looked like someone painted on his smile. They both said that this was the wedding of their dreams. The reception venue was especially challenging because it looked like a big ball of NOTHING prior to its "bezaar transformation." I was very pleased with how it all turned out. Here are some before and after shots of the reception venue.

  1. I had the awesome opportunity to share a two-fold experience with Be-zaar events. I served as Carmen's Makeup Artist, as well as assisted the team of Be-zaar Events. The work of my dear friend Akeem Clayton, Principle Event Designer was just immaculate! This guy lives for perfection, and with him - that's just what you get.

    Response as Be-zaar Events Team Assistant:
    Just to see this Paris in Spring-Time Wedding come to life was a once in a lifetime moment. Akeem and his team are AWESOME!

    Response as Key Makeup Artist for Revelations of Beauty:
    Carmen is just a sweetheart! She was simply my best bride ever, and I'm grateful that I was chosen to only enhance her beauty for her special day!


    I know that everyone who attended left with a smile and was happy to share this moment with this wonderful couple.

    Much love and appreciated kudos to Be-zaar Events!!!!

  2. Just wanted to say what a remarkable job Akeem and his team did at the wedding. We are still talking about it. The thing that most amazed us was Akeem's ability to transform an "ugly duckling" into the beautiful "swan". Great job, look forward to working together again!!

    Congratulations Carmen and Xavrae on your nuptials! If a picture could paint a thousand words, your Wedding reception, would surely be a masterpiece. Akeem and the rest of his Team created a beautiful wedding reception decor. Carmen and Xavrae, may God's Blessings continue to shine down upon you both.

  6. This was a spectacular event...one that I would have never guessed in a millioin years would be as extravagant and amazing as it was. I knew that it was going to be a beautiful event but when I walked in my jaw dropped and it was in ahhhh...I thought David Tetura had came and created this masterpiece but it was the Creative Bezaar team and the beauty of Carmen and Xavrae put the icing on the cake!

  11. A wedding reception is a time for a bride and groom to share their love and happiness with all family and friends. Our reception accomplished this goal and then some. When Xavrae and I walked in, I was surrounded by a room that had been truly transformed into a picture of elegance and grandeur. The lighting, flowers, linens, table-settings; breathtaking does not begin to describe the excellent job your team did. The beauty and warmth of the decor was mirrored only by the smiles and love in the faces of our guest. We could not have asked for a more PEARLfect start to our new lives together----Thank You, Akeem, from the bottom of my heart.
