New Sasha Souza: Ready to Ship

I've never been a fan of over the top weddings. Too much excess, IMHO. 

I *am* however, a follower of trendsetter event designer Sasha Souza and have been, since  I launched ART & SOUL Weddings and Events in 2004.

 
In that year, Sasha was honored by Modern Bride Magazine as one of the top 25 trendsetters in the wedding industry, being included with top industry pros such as Colin Cowie and Preston Bailey, among others. She was asked to serve on the Modern Bride Advisory Panel. Today she is considered among the top event design and coordination companies in the nation.

I've always found her designs, especially her Napa Valley weddings, to be breathtaking. I'm inspired by the homage she pays to the natural environment, integrating and interweaving the textures of the immediate landscape directly into the event. This is a woman after my own heart. A kindred spirit and a great role model.

I follow Sasha on Sparkliatti, her fresh, fun and highly energetic blog for event planners and brides-to-be. Today, for example, she posted about Flings Recycling & Trash Containers, convenient, portable, compact bins that snap open accordion-style to roughly the size of a tall kitchen bin for recycling and trash. How refreshing is that. ;-)

And now, without further ado, today's news is this:  Sasha Souza's newest inspiration book, "Magnificent Weddings by Design" is ready to ship through Amazon. Inspiration for the New Year. :-)
