On July 26th, 2024, Vibrant Occasions Catering had the pleasure of participating in The Blushing Bridal Fashion Show: Married in a New York Minute, an event that brought the chic, fast-paced energy of New York City to the heart of North Little Rock. Hosted by The Bridal Cottage and co-hosted by Central Arkansas Entertainment, this event transformed The Bridal Cottage into a scene straight out of the Big Apple, complete with a black-and-white checkered catwalk and themed decor that would make any New Yorker feel right at home.
As guests entered the venue at 3305 John F Kennedy Blvd, they were greeted by a stylish backdrop that set the tone for the evening: a bold illustration of a yellow taxi cab against the iconic New York City skyline, with the event’s name proudly displayed—Married in a New York Minute. The atmosphere was electric, with every detail meticulously planned to capture the essence of New York City, from the Times Square and Broadway signs on the cocktail tables to the Southern Sippery’s cleverly named bar station, “Upper East Side Station.”
The fashion show itself was a stunning display of the latest bridal trends, with The Bridal Cottage showcasing an array of bridal gowns, bridesmaids’ dresses, and tuxedos in an intimate setting that allowed attendees to experience each look up close. With live music from Ben & Doug, runway tunes by DJ Mario Luna, and professional glamming by Blush & Glow Hair and Makeup Artists, the models strutted down the catwalk, turning heads and inspiring future brides.
But no New York-inspired event would be complete without delicious food, and that’s where Vibrant Occasions came in. We were thrilled to serve an array of appetizers including cheese-stuffed mushrooms, mac & cheese ‘tini’s and sticky Asian pork belly bites that complemented the evening’s theme, offering a taste of the elegance and sophistication that the Big Apple is known for. Whether guests were indulging in our flavorful bites or sipping on specialty cocktails from Southern Sippery, the culinary experience added an extra layer of luxury to the evening.
The event was not just about fashion and food; it was also about creating memories. Guests had the opportunity to make their own mini bouquets at Curly Willow’s DIY bouquet table, capture memories with Blu Stu Videography and Nguyen Photography, and even get in on some fantastic giveaways, including an engagement shoot, bachelorette cocktail class, and high-end skin treatments.
As the evening came to a close, attendees left with swag bags filled with treats, including a $200 facial from Pine River Aesthetics, a Bride wine cup, and more—a perfect end to a night that was as glamorous as it was unforgettable.
At Vibrant Occasions, we are always excited to be a part of events that celebrate love, style, and community, and The Blushing Bridal Fashion Show was no exception. Whether you’re planning a wedding, a corporate event, or any special occasion, Vibrant Occasions Catering is here to bring your vision to life with food that delights and service that shines.
