We’re excited to announce that one of Fancy That! Events' weddings was recently featured in the Spring/Summer edition of the Bride & Bloom magazine!

Christine Zohrabians worked with Bahareh Fathi and Shahriar Parvizpour to transform the Viennese Ballroom at the Langham Huntington Hotel in Pasadena in order to create the couple’s perfect wedding. The couple met in a class at UCLA and the rest, as Bahareh puts it “is history.”

The couple along with the team at Fancy That! Events worked with many Harsanik.com vendors! Creative Works Designs provided custom wedding invitations and custom wedding accessories were made by Creative Touch.

The couple chose the Langham Huntington Hotel for both the ceremony and reception location because of its amazing spaces and elegance. The bride wore a stunning A-llne gown from Jobyna’s Bridal. The couple’s cake created by Rafi’s Pastry was a six-tier masterpiece decorated with orchids and rows of rhinestones.

White was the featured color from the flowing drapes covering the walls to the linens provided by White Night Design to the beautiful floral centerpieces arranged by Tic-Tock Couture Florals.

Duke Photography captured amazing photos and long lasting memories while the couple danced the night away as singer Andy entertained the crowd.

It’s time for another royal wedding! Well at least that’s what the Kardashians are calling it. Kim Kardashian and fiancé Kris Humphries' August 20th wedding is reported to cost $10 million and have over 1000 guests. Talk about a platinum wedding! And let’s not forget in case your invitation gets lost in the mail, the wedding will be televised in a two hour special on E! Television.

With less than a month to go the Kardashian clan is in full wedding mode. Khloe and Kourtney organized a wild & crazy bachelorette party in Vegas last weekend where the girls partied the night away at the Tao nightclub at The Venetian Hotel. Kim and fiancé Kris Humphries are taking dance lessons with Mark Ballas to train for their first dance. Kris Jenner even had a facelift stating she “needed a little freshening up for the wedding."

Of course the Twitterverse will be buzzing on the day of Kim’s wedding and we’re excited that Armenian Wedding will finally be a worldwide trending topic! There are no reports yet on whether Kim will be incorporating any Armenian traditions in her wedding but you can follow us on Facebook and Twitter for real time updates on Kim’s big day.

UPDATE: To see the official wedding invitation for The Kardashian Wedding, check out People.com where they have a picture of the invitation. According to the invite, the wedding will take place in Montecito, CA (city close to Santa Barbara) and it will be a "Black Tie" event.
