Blog Fete Mix & Mingle



This weekend was such an amazing experience for everyone involved.  The Hilton Grand Vacation Club served as our venue for the weekend.  The views were beautiful and the hotel rooms were perfect!

Friday was the official start of our event with our pool side Mix & Mingle.  Fun was truly had by all.
Much thank you to our Friday evening sponsors, Malu Boutiques and Oh Goodie Designs.

With hugs being passed around, drinks in hand, and fun convos, no one wanted the evening to end.








We are still pumped about this weekend and can't get to work on planning Blog Fete 2013!
More recaps to come.

The inspiration you'll find on Mayra's blog is gorgeous and easily achievable by the everyday hostess.
