Inside the Launch Party!

This morning, we woke up REALLY early and headed over to The New York Helmsley Hotel for the Launch Party of WPIX The NYC Magical Wedding. The Knickbocker suite was beautifully decorated with tables from all of the participating vendors. David Tutera did a great job hosting the event and graciously signed copies of his book and posed for photos.

We made mini cupcakes for the brides and grooms to sample. Flavors included vanilla cake with lemon buttercream and a raspberry drizzle, carrot cake with cream cheese frosting, rich chocolate cake with chocolate mousse buttercream and our popular red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting. Here's a look at our display table:

The buffet for the beautiful brides:

Breathtaking dresses from Pronovias. The first dress is so unbelievable, I wish I was having another wedding!

Me and David!

Miss New York, Davina Reeves, modeling a wedding dress:

Tamsen Fadal reported on the event and did an amazing job. Tamsen was super sweet and it was so exciting getting to watch her live. And she's even more beautiful in person!

Here I am in the background while Tamsen is interviewing David - how Forrest Gump!

Throughout the morning prizes from vendors were raffled and one very excited couple won a groom's cake from us!

Every Wednesday WPIX will have more wedding information and I'll update you on the progress of the contest as it unfolds. For now, you can enter yourself or anyone you think has an incredible love story for a chance to win the $100,000 magical wedding!
